- Repeat-until-stopped loop with the screen kept awake during transmission.
- Auto-maximizes screen brightness while signaling, then restores your original setting.

IMPORTANT — NOT AN EMERGENCY SERVICE
Morse Beacon is a signaling utility. It is NOT a replacement for emergency services. In a real emergency, always contact local emergency services first by calling 911 (US), 112 (EU), 999 (UK), or your country's equivalent. This app should only supplement, never substitute, proper emergency contact methods. Signaling effectiveness depends on weather, line of sight, ambient noise, and whether anyone is watching or listening.
REQUIREMENTS
- iPhone with rear camera flash for flashlight output
- iOS 26 or later
