Morse code, signal flags, and the phonetic alphabet are the kind of skills you either practice or lose. SignalCrafter is an offline kit for learning and drilling classic, non-network signaling, with a high-contrast interface meant to be read outdoors.

The Morse side is a real broadcaster, not just a chart. You set words per minute, repeat count, pause interval, and total duration, then send the message as a screen flash, a tone, a haptic pulse, or any combination. Field protocol presets cover common messages — SOS, Mayday, medical help, food or water, position unknown — so you can practice sending something meaningful rather than random letters.

For flags, there is an A-to-Z hoist builder with optional substitute flags for repeated letters, a readback of what you have spelled, and warnings when a character gets skipped. The offline almanac collects the reference you would otherwise dig for: international Morse, the NATO phonetic alphabet with pronunciation, maritime signal flags and their single-flag meanings, ground-to-air rescue symbols, and the Beaufort wind scale. A Drill tab lets you practice Morse, flags, and phonetics against a running streak and your best streak.

Everything works in airplane mode. There is no account, no cloud, no ads, and no tracking — preferences stay on the device. One honest caveat: this is a learning and reference tool, not a certified emergency beacon, marine radio, or a substitute for proper equipment and official procedures.

About SignalCrafter: Morse Trainer

Listen to generated Morse characters and record unassisted or hinted attempts in a dedicated Copy Lab.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Open Copy Lab, choose the practice speed and play the character audio.
2. Enter your answer before revealing a hint, or mark the attempt as assisted.
3. Review the listening record. Practice selection prioritizes untried and weaker unassisted results.

Existing offline signaling reference and practice tools remain available.

WHAT TO KNOW
Hinted attempts are excluded from unassisted accuracy. This is a learning tool, not an emergency communication system or proficiency certification. Audio depends on the device volume and output route.
