About this translator

Image Morse Code Translator reads dots and dashes from an image, decodes recordings of Morse tones, and converts typed text. It is a free browser tool for puzzles and practice.

What the image reader measures

The reader separates light and dark pixels, groups marks into rows, then measures mark widths and gaps. You can crop away surrounding text, rotate a row, adjust the threshold and inspect the boxes around each mark. Edit the detected Morse when the picture and translation disagree.

The method works best on straight rows with distinct short and long marks and visible letter gaps. It can fail on decorative beads, handwriting, perspective distortion, connected dashes, textured backgrounds or several unrelated rows. We do not claim it is more accurate than every OCR or AI tool.

Check the evidence

The public image test set identifies its sources, intended readings and transformations. It includes unsuccessful and ambiguous cases. Synthetic shading examples are labelled as synthetic; they are not photographs or customer results.

Files stay on your device

Your image, audio and typed message are processed in your browser. Saving a result image also happens locally. A share link includes Morse code only after you choose to share it; anyone receiving the link can read that message. Site analytics record page and action categories, never tool contents. See the privacy policy for details and an analytics switch.

Maintenance and feedback

This site is maintained by Jiguang, an independent developer. Contact contact@imagemorsetranslator.com to report a wrong result. Include the expected wording and steps to reproduce it if you are comfortable sharing them. Files you choose to send by email are separate from the local tool.

Image controls and test methodology updated on 3 October 2026. These are tools for checking clues and learning; a translation should be checked before you use it in a permanent design.
