Alright, so the other day I was messing around with the New York Times Mini crossword, you know, just killing some time. And I came across this clue that said, “Goes tap-tap-tap in a texting app.” At first, I was a little stumped, scratching my head and thinking, “What could that be?”
Figuring It Out
I started by just thinking about what I do when I’m texting. Obviously, I’m typing, right? So, I typed that into the crossword, and bam, it fit perfectly! It felt good to get it right, like a little victory.
Digging Deeper
But then I got curious. I wanted to see if there were other ways people might answer this or if there was more to it. I did a quick search online, and well, the results were kind of what I expected. Lots of folks were saying the same thing, that the answer is “TYPES.” It makes sense, doesn’t it? When you’re texting, you’re literally typing on your phone’s keyboard.
Other Stuff I Found
- Some people were talking about how you could also use voice recognition to text, which is true. I guess if you’re into that, you’re not really doing the tap-tap-tap thing, but it still counts as “typing” in a way.
- I also saw some discussions about turning off the on-screen keyboard sounds in your phone settings. I personally like the little clicky sound it makes, but I guess some people find it annoying. To each their own, right?
- There was even an app mentioned called “Tap Tap Send” that lets you send pre-typed messages with just a few taps. That sounds pretty handy for when you’re in a hurry.
Wrapping Up
So yeah, that’s my little adventure with the “Goes tap-tap-tap in a texting app” crossword clue. It’s a simple answer, but it got me thinking about how we interact with our phones and all the different ways we communicate. It’s kind of cool when you stop and think about it. Anyway, that’s all for now. Just wanted to share my little crossword experience. Hope you found it at least a little bit interesting!
