I find it difficult to translate short software GUI instructional pieces like:

  * Tap to enter comment
  * Press here to talk
  * Sign in to continue

Should I put it like:

  * タップしてコメントを入力
  * or must it be: ボタンをタップして、コメントを入力します
  * or コメントを入力するをタップします（してください）
  * or something else?

translation
How do I translate a pattern like "Tap to enter comment"?
I think the examples you have are fine. I would personally use `には` (In order
to ~X, ...). Also note that GUI actions often leave off the `する／します` when it
is implied. (Further note: I think `タッチ` or `クリック` might be used more than
`タップ`.)

  * コメントを入力するには、タッチしてください
  * (通話／録音)するには、こちらをクリック － Not sure of the exact meaning you want for "talk" without some context.
  * 続けるにはログイン（してください）
