Almost nobody knows this smartphone function

Android smartphones are known for their versatility, but not everyone knows all the functions in order to exploit their full potential. GIGA shows an ingenious trick that always keeps you up to date.

Football is by far the most popular sport in the world. According to Statista, there are more than four billion soccer fans around the world. Interest is particularly high in top games – too stupid if you can’t watch the spectacle. In order to always be informed about the event, Google has come up with a clever feature for Android smartphones: a pinned score.

The pinned score informs football fans with Android smartphones

To do this, you simply have to enter the corresponding game in the Google search and then tap on “Pin the game”. This will open a mini-window that is placed on the screen and informs about the current score with goal difference. Another tip on the window allows you to see additional information, for example which players scored goals. The window disappears again via “Remove”. The following screenshots show how this looks in practice:

In terms of design, the whole thing is reminiscent of the chat heads of the Facebook Messenger, but is much less conspicuous due to the small size. With this function, football fans can chat, watch videos or do a lot of other things with Android smartphones and still follow the score of their favorite team at the same time – a practical feature.

These apps should not be missing on any Android phone:

Google continues to expand search on Android phones

Users can follow teams, get information about tables and fixtures, receive relevant news and statistics and much more. Anyone who owns an Android smartphone and is a football fan should not miss these functions.
