Ham radio ops who like QRP will sooner or later want to learn Morse code so they can communicate using CW. This app teaches not only amateur radio enthusiasts how Morse code works and trains practitioners so they get faster.

You set your current level of proficiency and what you aim for (e.g. all letters with 20 words per minute). Dahdidahdit guides you from where you are to where to want to be: it teaches you new letters when you are ready and increases your speed when you seem bored. The only things you need other than a phone and the app is a sheet of paper and a pen. When you start the session, Dahdidahdit plays Morse code letters you know at the speed you are comfortable with. You jot down the letters you recognized. When the session ends, Dahdidahdit shows you what it sent and you compare notes. Then you tap the button that shows the proper number of mistakes. When you complete enough practice sessions with only few mistakes, Dahdidahdit starts the next lesson - be it by introducing a new letter or by increasing the speed.

Other features include

WhatsNew:

• The callsign generator now uses proper ITU prefixes and can also generate a few callsigns you might know.
• The QSO generator knows some operators, some of which are female.
• Copy Training can shift letter frequencies to what occurs in natural language text.
• Settings no longer allow do deselect all learning strategies.
• Headcopy trainer now generates letters even if only vowels or only consonants are allowed.

Hint: This app is available in both, F-Droid Main and IzzyOnDroid repos.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
