MorseLab: Morse Translator

Everything Morse code, in one place — learn it, translate it, scan it and decode it. Free to start. No account, no login, and it works offline.

Most Morse apps pick one lane: a trainer, OR a translator, OR an SOS light. MorseLab brings it all together in one clean, gamified app — in 16 languages.

TRANSLATE BOTH WAYS
• Type text or paste Morse (.- / ...) — instant two-way conversion
• Play it back as an audio tone, flashlight/torch blink, full-screen flash, or vibration
• Adjustable playback speed, copy and share
• Built-in SOS beacon for emergencies

SCAN TO MORSE
• Point your camera or pick a photo from your gallery
• On-device text recognition reads printed text in any language
• Edit the recognised text, then turn it into Morse

DECODE LIVE AUDIO
• Hold your mic up to a Morse beep and watch the text appear
• Tolerant of some background noise — decode signals on the fly

PRIVACY-FRIENDLY
No account, no sign-up. Your Morse messages and learning progress stay on your device, and the camera, microphone and text recognition all run on-device — nothing you scan or decode is uploaded. MorseLab is ad-free and uses only privacy-respecting analytics and crash reporting to fix bugs and improve the app.

Made with care by an independent developer. Start free — learn it, translate it, scan it and decode it.
