So that, when a joke falls flat, or there is a pause for comprehension, or when you were expecting applause but there is silence, cricket chirps will play from your cell phone.

       This silence-activated app could also be programmed to say things like, "but ummm,", and, "its-its-its-its just that---", to reserve high ground in contentious conversations.
