How do I decode Morse code from text?

Type or paste Morse code using dots (.) and dashes (-), with spaces between letters and slashes (/) between words. The decoder instantly translates it to readable text.

Can I decode Morse code from audio?

Yes! Click "Start mic" to decode Morse from your microphone in real time, or upload an audio file. Adjust the detection threshold for best results.

What is the Morse key mode?

The Morse key lets you practice keying Morse code. Press and hold the Space bar or tap the big button to send dots and dashes. The decoder will automatically recognize characters and show your keying speed in WPM.

Does the decoder support Cyrillic and other alphabets?

Yes! The reference table includes Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, Korean, and Japanese Morse code alphabets. The text decoder works with Latin and Cyrillic Morse patterns.

What do the dots, dashes, and slashes mean?

A dot (.) is a short signal (dit), a dash (-) is a long signal (dah, 3x the length of a dot). Space separates letters within a word, and slash (/) separates words.
