FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this tool.

What is Morse code?
Morse code is a method of encoding text as sequences of dots (·) and dashes (—). Each letter and number has a unique code. It was used historically for telegraph communication and is still used in amateur radio.
How does the audio playback work?
The tool uses the Web Audio API to generate tones for dots and dashes. Dots are short tones, dashes are long tones. Speed is controlled by the WPM setting — higher WPM means faster playback.
What characters are supported?
The full International Morse Code standard: A-Z (uppercase), 0-9, and common punctuation including period, comma, question mark, slash, and at sign. Lowercase input is automatically uppercased.
How do I format Morse code input for decoding?
Use dots (.) and dashes (-) for signals. Separate letters with spaces or slashes (/). Separate words with double spaces or double slashes (//). The tool auto-detects and handles various formats.
