What are your Top Taps?

All this week, Will, our Head of Apps Development: Engineering (otherwise known as the coding wizard who builds our award-winning apps) has been sharing some of his #TopTaps on Twitter – some of the little interactive surprises that we’ve hidden in our story apps for you to find. Here are some of our favourites:



If you tap this radio in NosyCrowApps</a> Cinderella, you may hear the theme from another of our apps. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TopTaps?src=hash">#TopTaps</a> <a href="http://t.co/W6YEcazIKy">pic.twitter.com/W6YEcazIKy</a></p>&mdash; Will Bryan (CodingCrow) October 14, 2014

CodingCrow</a> But I think my FAVOURITE <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TopTap?src=hash">#TopTap</a> is the pleasingly gelatinous quality of the frogspawn in FRANKLIN FROG <a href="http://t.co/Izze2GQJvq">http://t.co/Izze2GQJvq</a></p>&mdash; Tom Bonnick (tombonnick) October 14, 2014

We hope that adding all of these hidden interactive “easter eggs” to our apps gives them a richness that’ll mean you’ll want to re-visit them time and time again – they’re simply FILLED with fun surprises.
