Free Text to Morse Code

From SOS to secret notes, Morse code never quite went away. Type any message and this free translator converts it to dots and dashes — letters, numbers and punctuation — with optional audio playback so you can hear it too.

Private by design. This tool runs 100% in your browser — your text is never uploaded to any server.

How to Use the Text to Morse Code

  1. Type the message to translate.
  2. Tick audio playback if you want to hear it.
  3. Click “Translate to Morse”.
  4. Copy the code or play it as sound.

Features

Complete ITU Morse table covering A–Z, 0–9 and common punctuation, with spaces between letters and slashes between words. Unsupported characters are skipped with a count shown. Built-in Web Audio playback renders the code as real dits and dahs at 650 Hz.

Benefits & Use Cases

Scouts and hobbyists learn Morse interactively. Puzzle makers encode clues for treasure hunts. Teachers demonstrate historic communication tech. Anyone sending a playful coded message gets instant translation.

Tips

Standard timing: a dash is 3x a dot, and word gaps are 7x — the player follows this rhythm. Keep messages short; Morse gets long fast (about 3–4 symbols per letter). Decode it back with Morse Code to Text to verify accuracy.
