To play Chrome’s dinosaur game on your Android device anytime, you need to pin a widget to your home screen. But first, you need to ensure the Google Chrome app on your Android phone or tablet is up to date. You can do so by launching the Play Store, tapping your profile icon at the top-right corner of the screen, and navigating to Manage Apps & Device > Updates Available. Check for Google Chrome updates and tap “Update,” if available.
Once you’ve got Chrome shining with the latest updates, follow these steps to add the dinosaur game to your home screen as a widget:
- Long press on an empty space on your phone’s home screen and tap on “Widgets.”
- Scroll down until you find the Chrome section, where you will find available widgets for the browser. Alternatively, you can simply long-press the Google Chrome app icon and select its widgets menu directly.
- Expand the list, and once you’ve spotted the “Chrome Dino” widget, touch and hold it to add it to your home screen.
- You should now see the widget on your home screen. Tapping on it will redirect you to Chrome, and you can start playing by tapping on the dinosaur.
Note that the exact menu names and steps may differ from one Android phone to another.
