How To Use Split Screen In Android?

Using split screen on your Android device allows you to effortlessly multitask by displaying two apps side by side. Follow these steps to effectively utilize this feature:

To begin, open the first app you want to use in split screen mode. This can be any app of your choice.

Next, swipe up from the bottom of your screen to the top to access the recent apps overview.

From the recent apps overview, find the app you want to use as the second app in split screen mode. Touch and hold its icon until you see a menu of options.

Tap on the “Split screen” option, which will split your screen into two sections.

Now, you will see the first app you opened at the top of the screen, and at the bottom, you’ll see a list of other apps. Tap on the second app you want to use in split screen mode.

The second app will now open in the bottom half of the screen, allowing you to interact with both apps simultaneously.

You can adjust the size of each app by dragging the divider line between the two apps up or down.

To exit split screen mode, simply drag the divider line all the way to the top or bottom of the screen.

It’s important to note that not all apps support split screen mode, so you may encounter limitations with certain apps.

Additionally, using split screen may impact the performance of your device, particularly if you are running resource-intensive apps simultaneously.

Experiment with split screen mode to find the workflow that suits your needs and enhances your productivity on your Android device.
