Never lose track of text messages again by pinning them

Want a quick way to make your favorite text conversations easy to access? Tired of scrolling through your phone trying to find a certain message chain?

Well, look no further. With these steps, you can easily pin whatever conversations you need so they’re always at the top of your messaging app on an iPhone or Android.

 

Settings may vary depending on your Android phone’s manufacturer

  • Open the Google Messages app on your Android device
  • Find the text conversation that you want to pin, tap and hold it
  • Now, tap on the little pin icon that appears on your screen
  • The conversation will now be pinned to the top of the app, and you can pin up to five threads

This feature can help you quickly access your most important text conversations without having to scroll through your device.

Being able to paste a photo to the notes section of a contact would be SO good for me.

I'm 73 and all this new internet is so hard for me to keep up with. My memory is not what it used to be. Thank you for your guidance in this world of fraud and using the Internet, which everyone needs. Thank you
