“Love is in the apps”

Hi Strands fans. Even as someone who hasn't used a dating app for over a decade, today's puzzle was pretty straightforward. It was only a question of whether I was looking for the names of apps ("Bumble", "Tinder", "Hinge", etc.) or the actions taken on them.

It was the latter, as I discovered when I connected SWIPE along the top of the grid. I then found PROFILE below it and SWIPE on the opposite side. MATCH was in the bottom-right corner, with CHAT in the bottom left.

This was enough for me to see the spangram clearly: ONLINEDATING, spelt out very neatly in a zigzag across the middle of the board.

Two answers were left to find. MEETUP was in the top right corner, which just left GHOST below the end of the spangram to complete the puzzle.
