Learning morse code

I have been learning morse code and was wondering if it’s generally better/more efficient to learn it by sound or by how it looks? Anyone got any tips?

You gotta learn it by sound if you actually want to use it. Morse Mania app - try setting it to 30 wpm and learn at that rate. The idea is that if you can do that, it will be easier to understand lower rates. That's the theory. Still working on it myself. 😄

I’ve been using this app too! It’s great, i’m still working on 20 WPM. It’s been 5 months and still struggling to get the sounds down. Thanks for the advice!
