Issues with receiving Sports notification in Now Bar on S24 Ultra

[Stevekim24]

Anyone else having problem getting sports notifications on now bar on their S24 ultra?

@CaryS21UltraS24Ultra The Now bar only appears when it has something to show. It will then show on the bottom of the lock screen between the 2 icons you have there in the corners. It will also show on the home screen in upper left. 

You can go to phone settings -> Lock screen and AOD -> Now bar and enable the items that you want to see. 

After you enable the media player, you can test by starting some music or other media playing. Then you should see the Now bar.

It shows my Spotify and audible. But not my sports scores for some reason. (Yes I have sports turned on on now bar)

@lucryster Is the sports currently in progress? It only shows the Sports info for a short time before it starts, while it is going on, and then for a time period after it ends.

Yep games going right now

Do you have any of the options turned on for the Now Bar and Live Notifications? It will only display when something is running.

I have done some research and I cannot find the answer to how I add the now bar to my lock screen. Does anybody know how to do it?

If you are rocking Ui7, congratulations! It is awesome.

To turn on the Now Bar, go to settings, type in the search box, Now Bar, tap on it to open. It will take you straight to Lock Screen and AOD and you will see Now Bar flash, click on it. Toggle on all the things you want to see in the Now Bar. For Scores by Google , tap to open go to bottom, tap on Scores from Google settings, type in the search box for each team you want to follow, press follow then done after they are all done.

For things to show in the now bar one of the categories you selected have to be active. There will be nothing there if one of the actions aren't active.
