Text & Writing
Text ⇄ Morse Code
Text ⇄ Morse Code translates plain text into dots and dashes, or converts Morse code back into readable text. It's useful for ham radio hobbyists, scouts working on badges, students, or anyone curious about the classic telegraph-era code.
The tool handles letters, numbers, and common punctuation in both directions with a single click. All translation happens locally using JavaScript in your browser, so nothing you type is ever sent to a server.
How to Use the Text ⇄ Morse Code
- Open the Text ⇄ Morse Code tool.
- Type or paste text to convert it to Morse, or paste Morse code to decode it.
- Switch between encode and decode modes as needed.
- Copy the translated result.

Is an internet connection needed to translate Morse code?
No, once the page is loaded all encoding and decoding happens locally in your browser.
