About Morse code
Morse code represents letters and numbers as sequences of dots (short signals) and dashes (long signals). It was developed for the telegraph and is still used in aviation, amateur radio, and as an accessible way to send simple signals with light or sound.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert text to Morse code?
Type your message and it is translated instantly. Each letter becomes a pattern of dots and dashes, letters are separated by spaces, and words are separated by a slash (/).
Can I decode Morse code back to text?
Yes. Paste Morse code into the second box — dots and dashes with spaces between letters and " / " between words — to decode it back to plain text.
What do dots and dashes mean?
A dot is a short signal and a dash is a long one. Morse code assigns each letter and number its own unique sequence of these two symbols.
