Google laid an Easter Egg on my phone

Friends just call me Ross · March 16, 2018

I was going through apps and shutting annoying notifications off of every app that annoyingly notifies me,

and I discovered an app called Android Easter Egg.

I Googled it to see what in the world it was, and came across this info for the Nougat update:

Google is well known for throwing easter eggs in to its software, particularly with Android versions. For the past two years, there's been a hidden Flappy Bird-style game which you access by heading in to Settings>About Phone then tapping multiple times on the Android version, then tapping repeatedly and long-pressing the Android version logo. With Android N, it's changed, although you still access it in much the same way.

This year's easter egg is a patience-testing game involving cat-baiting. Here's how to get to it...

When it does work, you'll get a notification saying "a cat is here" with the number of the cat listed underneath. Tapping on the notification reveals a new screen with a cat icon which you tap once to rename, or long-press to reveal sharing options. You can save a full resolution version of the cat's picture to your device, or share it to all your social media accounts like every other crazy cat owner.
