Learn Morse code the way radio operators do: by sound.
MorseLab teaches you to hear each character as a rhythm and recognise it instantly, instead of counting dots and dashes from a chart. A few focused minutes a day take you from your very first signal to copying real messages, callsigns and on-air exchanges.
Whether you are studying for an amateur radio (ham radio) licence, getting into CW, learning a skill for emergencies, or simply curious about the original digital code, MorseLab gives you a clear path and the tools to practise.
GUIDED LESSONS
• 28 step-by-step lessons cover the full alphabet, numbers 0 to 9, punctuation and operator prosigns
• Each new character comes with its sound, its pattern and a simple memory aid
• Listen, choose, type and build answers, with clear feedback after every question
• Replay any signal at slow, normal or fast speed while you learn
KOCH METHOD TRAINING
• The Koch method used by CW operators: copy characters at full speed from day one
• Reach 90% accuracy in a session and the next character unlocks
• Farnsworth spacing adds extra time between characters without slowing the characters themselves
SEND MORSE
• An on-screen straight key and iambic paddles
• Practise letters, words, callsigns and messages, or use the free key to send anything
• MorseLab decodes what you send as you key it
• A fist score rates how even your timing is, and your sending history shows it improving
PRACTICE THAT ADAPTS TO YOU
• Adaptive practice weights each session toward the characters you find hardest
• Weak character drills slow down and repeat only the ones you miss
• Silent practice by vibration, for a bus, a library or an office
• Real message packs: everyday phrases, radio terms, operating procedure, QSO exchanges and distress signals such as SOS
SPEED TRAINING
• Listening speeds from 5 to 60 WPM
• A suggested next speed based on your accuracy
• Your best speed is recorded, so you can see your progress
DAILY CHALLENGE
• A fresh set of ten listening questions every day on the characters you know
• Ears only, with no dots and dashes on screen
• Keep your streak going and earn bonus XP for finishing
REALISTIC SOUND
• Four sound styles: radio receiver, practice oscillator, telegraph sounder and pure tone
• Optional band noise and signal fading (QSB) to practise copying weak, noisy signals
• Adjustable tone, volume and character speed
• Morse haptics let you feel the code as well as hear it
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
• Mastery for every character, from introduced to mastered
• Accuracy, level, XP, streaks and achievements
• A daily goal that fits the time you have
PRIVATE AND DISTRACTION-FREE
• Works fully offline, with no account and no sign-in
• Your progress stays on your device
• No ads
• Light and dark themes, a night training mode for low light, high contrast and reduced motion options
• An optional daily reminder, never more than once a day
