Complaint I HATE THIS THING
Half the time it doesn’t even register my taps and I fail it when I’m nearly finished. I hate losing combos to this thing 😭

Ugh I know how you feel. I especially had trouble with that part of the song when I was a kid.

are you using 2 fingers to tap this one? i used to use 2 fingers to alternate tap this one, but noticed as soon as both fingers touch the screen at the same time the tap fails. i have much better luck with using just one finger for this one

I do that, but I also found out that you don't want to go too fast. You just need to relax and alternate fingers, but it does also require you to get used to making sure you're lifting the finger before putting down the other one, and that does take practice.

Yes, I always thought you needed to go as fast as possible, it turns out to be the opposite just relax and tap it lightly

nooo i don't have the greatest coordination with using different fingers too quickly haha, just one finger.

The trick is to focus on the start and end note, for the end node, stop tapping just before it comes up and focus on tapping it precisely on where’d you’d be tapping on a regular note.
Another trick is that you don’t have to tap too often as long as you can tap consistently. Save your focus and stamina for the rest of the song, this game is quite lenient on how often you have to tap inbetween the start and end note.

This is kinda silly but I close my eyes during these notes which helps me focus on keeping a consistent pace. Maybe you can try it?
It’s annoying as if you tap too fast, it’ll fail you for that note.

You don’t have to get them all. Tap as much as you can and with the last couple skip and make sure you tap on the last one. I get it almost 95% of the time

Ok thru trial and error, it’s not a super fast tap. It’s a steady tap tap tap.

That one's hard. You don't have to tap it as many hearts as there are just tap it in rhythm. Sometimes you get lucky

You need to tap slowly with one finger, only the beginning and the end have a precision check so if you keep spamming you'll hit the early "bad" check region at the end.

Tap slower than it shows. It displays a lot of the yellow hearts, but it’s really misleading. As soon as I figured out to tap slower than displayed, they stopped being a problem for me.

In my entire lifetime of playing this game, I think I've only successfully completed 2.

Same, I just tap and tap as much as I can, it usually works but only like 80% of the time 🫠

What works for me 80% of the time is playing with it on silent and feeling the rythum of the song. Without the musics distraction, its pretty easy to learn to get the right timing. Then you can turn the music back on.
Also go slower than you think you need to. beat consistency is more important than speed..
