I love this app, the only thing that I wish was different was the scoring. As you learn more letters your score naturally goes down at first, I wish the scores were from your last 10 sessions or broken up by lesson. I've been looking at the numbers I get correct in at minute session to see if I'm improving. Other than that, this is the best CW app on the Play Store and I've tried them all.

Splash screen gave me a migraine,it's the interaction between the contrast and brightness/ colours,no way to switch it off, will have to delete and try something else.

It does exactly what it portends to do, and does it well. However, the result is that I learn the keyboard positions of the sounded letters rather than the letters. If it spoke the name of the letter after it had been correctly selected, that might have helped. It would also help to have a keyer so that I could practice forming the sounds of the letters, and also have the app judge the intelligibility of my keying. I regret getting this app.

Decent app. Needs some improvements. When introducing a new character, needs to work on that character a few times to know what is actually is. Also some timing issues such as if you select wrong the buzzer can drown out the next one. And they only play once before the hint. Needs to repeat after a pause. Also changing the volume should not make the buzzer sound. That's plain annoying. Still good for learning.

It's a great app for short learning sessions just anywhere you have a free minute. Good job and thanks for maintaining this! What I would like improved? More precise selection of WPM speed (I've found 28 just right for me on LCWO) and locking the screen in landscape mode (when laying the phone on the desk it switches by itself sometimes). Vertical layout is useless for qwerty-trained people. Also, (not my level yet) app could offer random groups for advanced students (not just 40 words).

I've tried a lot of the available apps for learning to recognise what Morse Code sounds like, and I've made more progress with this app than I have with any other. It's probably taken me the equivalent of a few weeks of daily half hour practices to get as far as being able to recognise the full complement of letters, numerals and symbols correctly most of the time. I have more work to do to improve my recognition speed though.

About this app

This app teaches you to 'receive' Morse code.

It starts with two letters and automatically adds more when it understands that you are ready.

This is the easiest and most efficient way to learn Morse code as the app focuses on the practice you need next, instead of wasting your time with stuff you already know or confusing you with stuff that you still don’t.

The original idea comes from Ward K9OX (http://c2.com/morse/).

By default the app uses the 'Koch' method letter sequence and starts with the first two letters: K and M. But you can use any of the methods available and find the one that suits more your likings. There's also a training program for the top 40 words used during a CW QSO.

Around each letter you have a circle chart showing how high is your error score. It starts from 100% (full circle) and lowers as you start guessing letters right and increases when you are wrong or you take too much time to recognise them.

To start the training, simply press the PLAY button on the top right of the display.

At this point the app will start playing tones. Press the one that you think corresponds to the tone. If you are wrong, the app will let you know by playing an 'error' sound. If you are right, the app will continue by picking up another letter or word. Once you'll become good enough with the active letters, the app will enable a new one following the method selected.

You can decide to put the training lesson on hold by pressing the PAUSE button. Or stop it by pressing the STOP button. If you want to have an automatic stop after a certain amount of minutes, you can set the SESSION TIME in the settings.

While not training, you can tap on any key or word and listen to its tone to start to get used to it even outside of the training session.

You can access the SETTINGS by tapping the 'hamburger icon' on the top left.

You can look at your top 10 scores by tapping BEST SCORES in the left menu.

Important: you can use the app in both landscape and portrait mode!

Enjoy learning Morse code!
