Description
Create ringtones with your own customized Morse Code messages. Don't bore people with yet another pop tune blaring from your phone. Be different... retro-tech. Communicate. Or just hide really funny messages in your ringtones for "special" people (be they your best friends or your worse enemies). Only other Alpha-geeks will understand.
You can email your new Morse Code ringtone file to yourself or a friend, and use iTunes on a Mac or PC to install the ringtone file to your iPhone. Using a Mac, simply connect your iPhone, wait until it appears in the File browser, and drag-and-drop the new ringtone file to the icon of your device.
This app allows pasting your new Morse Code ringtone sound directly into an iOS GarageBand track, thus allowing one to create a ringtone directly on a iOS device, without having to Sync with iTunes. (Note that using GarageBand on iOS to install a ringtone is not a simple one-step process. GarageBand requires a user to navigate and find several obscure looking buttons over multiple steps in order to create and install a new ringtone.)
Once the new ringtone file is on your iPhone, you can use the Settings app in order to select your new custom ringtone.
With Morse Code Ringtone Maker, you can customize the text and the Morse Code/CW speed (combined up to 30 seconds), as well as the the tone frequency. The Words-Per-Minute (WPM) speed is variable from 5 to 40 WPM. The tone frequency is customizable from 300 to 1200 Hz. On the customization page, you can additionally configure Farnsworth timing where the dots and dashes for each letter come even faster than the WPM of the letters. For different timbres, select Sinewaves, Square-waves or Triangle-waves for your tone sound.

Ratings and Reviews
Misleading to advertise it as a ringtone maker
It’s an audio file maker for morse from text. Turning that into a ringtone is a whole different story and is definitely not within the capabilities of the application. Grossly misleading description to say the least. Just be aware that you will have to do some acrobatics to use any output from this app as a ringtone.
Also, when the 5-star reviews include 7 step convoluted procedures to turn that audio file into a ringtone, something’s up. Make your own judgement on that.
Yes, this works as advertised.
This is my first app review. I was leery of spending the money on this give the negative reviews, but I took the plunge. The app works exactly as advertised, and the directions are quite clear and concise. I used the GarageBand method rather than iTunes, and found it easy and fast. If you can follow directions, and you’re capable of basic iPhone operations, this is a piece of cake. Really cool app if you’re a CW junkie like I am!
Using an iMac & iTunes…
Step1) email your CW ring tone 2)control click on the “play bar icon” in the email & choose “save to Downloads Folder” 3) connect iPhone/open iTunes & open device 4) drag .m4r file from Downloads over the section (in iTunes) below your iPhone that says “On My Device” & drop it in “Tones” 5)Open settings on your iPhone & go to “Sounds & Haptics” and choose your CW ring tone!!!! 73 de KY9I
