# 786 Do I Have To Spell It Out?

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that since using digits is a normal way of counting, it would be the same as writing the count with letters. (See answer # 785 above) However, he would have to write “today is day so and so”, or “it is x days to the omer.” The writing has to appear on the screen of his phone and not be encrypted or just be sent.
