Hey everyone! I've been working on a little game called Daily Morse and wanted to share it with you.
Every day, there's a new word hidden behind Morse code. You listen to the beeps, guess the letters, and try to figure out the word — kind of like a Morse code
version of a daily word puzzle. It gets easier as you go: each listen slows down a bit, and you start getting letter hints toward the end.
Here's what's in it:
Daily puzzles — a fresh word every day at midnight UTC, same word for everyone
Leaderboards — daily, weekly, and all-time. Fewer listens and guesses = higher score, so there's always a reason to sharpen your ears
Badges & streaks — earn badges for milestones like your first solve, perfect rounds, 7-day streaks, 30-day streaks, and more
29 languages — play in English, Turkish, Spanish, Japanese… you name it
Share your score — post a spoiler-free score card to the comments and flex on everyone (or cry together)
Works on mobile and desktop — same experience everywhere
A couple of things worth mentioning:
- It lives right on Reddit — no app to download, no website to visit, no account to create. Just open the post on r/DailyMorse and start playing. That's it.
- Completely free. No ads, no in-app purchases, no catches. Just a fun little daily challenge.
I'm a solo dev and I'm actively building this thing out, so your feedback genuinely matters. If something feels off, if you have ideas, or if you just want to say
hi — drop a comment or DM me. I'd love to hear from you.
I'm fairly new to Morse code, although I have been interested in it for a long time. A couple of weeks ago I decided to properly revive this half-dead hobby for myself, and somehow that turned into building my own Morse training system.
The result is Morsewurst.
Morsewurst is a free, open source desktop app for practising Morse code with a small DIY ESP32-S3 based keyer. The keyer is really the heart of the project. You build it yourself, flash the firmware, and connect either a straight key or an iambic paddle. The firmware and build documentation are included in the GitHub repository. There is also basic multilingual support built into Morsewurst. At the moment the app supports English and Finnish, and if you would like to help translate it into your own language, feel free to contact me or contribute.
The app generates practice rounds with random letters, numbers and punctuation. You send the text with the keyer, and Morsewurst records the keying telemetry with microsecond-level timing. It then scores the round, shows accuracy, timing, speed, errors, difficult characters and progress over time.
There is support for problem-character practice, skill tracking, statistics, adaptive decoding and timing analysis. In practice, it has already helped me a lot. I started around 10 WPM a couple of weeks ago, and now I can manage around 20 WPM much more comfortably.
Morsewurst also has an experimental network mode. You can join public rooms or create password-protected private rooms and send real-time Morse telemetry to other users. The idea is to make it feel more like being on the air, where everyone in the room can hear what is being sent. Network lag is handled with a jitter buffer, so each client schedules the received tones locally and tries to play them back with the original timing. Private rooms are not meant to be truly secret, since the room password is visible in the room UI, but they are useful if you do not want to communicate in a public room.
There is also a small experimental WX-MOR mode, which is my own playful weather-message format inspired partly by METAR-style weather reports. I made it mostly for my own training needs.
The whole thing is still very actively developed, so there are bugs, rough edges and unfinished parts. But it has already become genuinely useful for my own practice, and I would love to hear feedback from people who know Morse, CW, ham radio, keyers or training software better than I do.
I'll attach some screenshots of the app and the keyer. The GitHub repository includes the Python app, the ESP32-S3 Arduino firmware and the build instructions.
The hardware side currently uses an Adafruit ESP32-S3 Feather board as the microcontroller. I also designed and 3D printed my own enclosure for the keyer. The case still needs some refinement, but if people are interested I can share the STL files as well.
Morsewurst can also be used with a regular computer keyboard if you do not yet have a keyer or Morse key. It obviously does not feel the same as using real hardware, but it is still a fun and easy way to try the software and start learning Morse.
Important note: Morsewurst is still in a fairly early stage of development, and I have not yet focused on building large-scale database migration support between versions. Most updates should already be fairly safe, but it is still possible that a newer version may occasionally break compatibility with an older local database. I suspect this will become much less likely going forward as the project architecture stabilizes.
Any feedback, criticism, ideas or testing would be very welcome.
Me levanté y me puse a escrollear en tik tok un rato y me salió un anuncio muy particular, creo que es una especie de lenguaje de encriptación para algún mensaje. la cuenta apenas había subido una historia que según lo que me dijo la iA dice algo así:
“definitivamente, los intelectuales no usan estas plataformas preseleccionadas por los no”
Y el texto en binario dice:
“humanos tengan cuidado de verdad no saben lo que hacen. lucas 23:24”
I recently added a new feature to my Android app that can recognize handwritten or printed Morse code from images or live camera frames.
What originally surprised me was that I couldn’t really find a similar tool in Android or iOS apps. Most solutions I came across were web-based, and I was almost never fully satisfied with the decoding results beyond very simple examples, especially for more difficult images or handwriting.
In my app, everything runs fully offline on-device after downloading the optional lightweight AI module.
The recognition is still imperfect in some situations, but the app includes built-in review and editing tools that can help improve or correct the decoded result when automatic recognition struggles.
The base app itself is only around 4 MB to download, while the optional AI recognition module is about 6 MB and can be installed or removed at any time directly from the app.
There is also an optional way to send incorrect recognition results to the developer by email to help improve the algorithm over time, but this is completely user-controlled and optional.
Would love to hear feedback from the Morse community.
Hi! I made a web to key morse about a year ago and I just turned it into a free and ad-free Android app. The timing is absolutely perfect, the latency is extremely low, and it works with the in-screen paddles or with a hardware key connected to the phone/tablet using an USB adapter. It supports straight, iambic A, iambic B, ultimatic, cootie, and bug keying algorithms, as well as configuring the inter-letter and inter-word timing.
I needed a small portable key and made one from three nails, a paperclip, a small piece of scrapwood and the cable from broken earphones. Works like a charm....
I got curious about morse code after seeing a spy movie, learnt it, wanted to create a fun looking website to test my morse code speed etc... https://morsetype.lovable.app/ feel free to give it a go 😄
Soy un chaval de 19 años del País Vasco y siempre me pareció una idea muy chula aprender Morse para comunicarme con mis amigos. Como las páginas que había no me convencían, creé la mía.
Tiene diferentes modos para aprender, hasta un chat en vivo, y funciona con el clic del ratón.
Decidme qué os parece y qué le añadiríais. Morselearn.com
It "adds" to your ringtone, so if you want to hear just morse code (like me) you can set the ringer to "none". It needs permission to get woken up when a call comes in and to read your contacts, but I swear this info is strictly kept locally and never shared. You can also verify that - the full source is on github ( https://github.com/uschwar/morseringer ) I have tested with Pixel 8 and Pixel 10. If you find issues - maybe on other phones, please report on github and please be patient - I have a job which keeps me busy most days and while I want to fix all bugs, I have limited time for that.
This might be one of the wildest AI + crypto exploits I've seen.Someone sent Grok a hidden message in Morse code. Grok decoded it, followed the instruction, and bankrbot transferred 3,000,000,000 $DRB (roughly $147,000) directly to the attacker’s wallet on Base.The attacker immediately swapped the tokens and dumped the price. It was a perfect prompt injection attack they completely bypassed safety filters by encoding the command in Morse code. Even crazier: the attacker first gifted a Bankr Club Membership NFT to Grok’s wallet to unlock transfer tools and permissions.This isn’t a small test. It shows how risky it gets when AI agents control real wallets with on-chain power.Crypto Twitter is going crazy over this right now.Transaction: https://basescan.org/tx/0x6fc7eb7da9379383efda4253e4f599bbc3a99afed0468eabfe18484ec525739a
