The best way to experience a sporting event is to watch it live, but that’s not always possible. So how do you track the scores in real-time? If you own an Android smartphone or tablet, you can put live sports scores in floating bubbles on your screen.

This feature is possible through the Google app on Android devices. All you have to do is search for a sport or a specific event, and you can pin it to the screen. We’ll show you how to do it.

First, open the Google app (or use the Google widget on your home screen), then search for a specific team or sport.

search for a sporting event.

Results for your search will appear, and if there is a live event happening, you’ll see a “Pin Live Score” button.

Tap "Pin Live Score"

You may be asked to update the app settings to allow Google to draw over other apps. This is required in order for the bubble to stay on top of other content and apps. Tap “Open Settings” to proceed.

Tap "Open Settings."
