Came here for neat tips and discoveries, left disappointed because of dozens? of posts about a cat game.

I now have 13 cats. You need to rotate food choice. I do get same cat at times

Some people have found that a useful thing to have on there phone. Not every post will be what you are looking for here.

That's what I was wondering also. The plug would still be in the headset jack so how would you get any sound with the earbuds cut off?

Your radio app uses the plugged in wire with the ear buds cut off as an antenna. So you are playing the radio with sound being heard by everyone --like a transistor radio of olden days lol. I am sitting listening to mine like that as I type. Try it. Cheap to buy a $1.00 set of ear buds at the Dollar Store and just leave about six inches attached to the fitting that goes into the bottom of the phone. I did that for years on my Blackberry phones.

How do you hear the radio if you cut the speakers off of the earbuds?

You are playing the music out loud like a transistor radio so everyone can hear it. The length of wire with the plug in attachment left to plug into the bottom of the phone acts as an antenna. Great for power failures and natural disasters so everyone can hear the news.

That's right. I have only tried using the radio ONCE in my old S7 Edge so I forgot that there is a setting to play the audio through the phones speaker.

Right! There is a setting at the top right that says "Output to speaker".

That's it! I think I may be using this radio feature a bit more that I have been reminded how it works. I don't need it in the car obviously but at home or work, it can be fun to have.

thanks. yes. same here. I suppose cat three will show up shortly and I think after that I'm finished. interesting to go through the steps successfully, though. kinda cool.

I'm up to seven, but someone else posted that if you use the bits more cats will show up and yes I am losing interest already. If they would play or walk across the screen when you feed them or when it's time to feed them it might be a little more interesting.

That's right! They took the time to build this into the OS so why make it so simple? Add more to it so that it's actually a fun little game. Right now, it's got nothing to want me to keep getting more cats.

I agree with both of you. there should be something besides the cats coming. I got a duplicate of one (yes, I'm still at it) but got a fourth that was unique. guess we'll see what 5 brings... will use bits next.

if you collect all one thousand cats you win a Note 9 ....ok ..probably not..
...cat #986 is highest number I have seen so far but I only have 6, you can name them, remove them, and share them but that seem to be the only things so far, however..if you only get 2-3 new ones per day it will take a year if there really is 999 of them

There is an option on the app to output with the phone's speakers instead of the ear buds.

While I don't mind the cast discussion here, it would be better to have it as a stand alone that so others can find it easier. Just a thought!

Was about to suggest the same, it's just a silly game but still a bit of fun to see what happens later in the game but it will clog up this thread, I'll start one now on

Mine did the sane thing, then I got a fourth. I'm just naming them alphabetically for now.

How do you remove them ? I'm not interested anymore, they are pretty boring cats!

 

[djlee0314]

Stop talking about cats please

I just did this and it worked. Go to the about screen in settings. Tap on Android Version till the N appears. Tap that N about 6 times and then hold it till you get the forbidden sign. The cats are now gone.
