I use it everyday on my tablet. From the days Samsung Kitkat OS.

Me using android 6 be like what are this ones talking about...... Jejely swaggers out of thread with my android 6.0 Marshmallow

Tex42:
open the apps u want to work with.

Press and hold[long press] the minimise button.

The screen should split at this juncture.

Note: can only Vouche it works on phones running android V7.0. Though some Samsung users claim the feature works on lesser versions.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Gpik79:

you're wrong there. You can split screen on Touchwiz from android 5.0

I already said it that Samsung flagships had this feature way back, even u can open up to 4 apps side by side on galaxy still hurts swiping from the corner

I see a fellow Doug fanboy here Have you played a drinking game for every time he says ‘quirks’?

Ha ha, Doug demuro is my favorite YouTuber. Never misses a video from him.

Op thank you for spuring me to look for this great feature, awesome. Result below

Seyi8701:




can samsung S5 do the split? would be getting the phone next week

Even galaxy s4 can do it. Samsung had this in their phones way back before Google made it a native Android thing. And Samsung split screen is even better than google's

Seems Like It Doesn't Work On IPhones Bro ?

No it doesn't work on iPhones, only works on iPad pro

Tenison96:

Not necessarily Android 7.0. I first used it on android 5.1

not working here Infinix hot 1

I use it once in a while. Not much to do at the same time

Actually iPhones 6 on iOS 10 had a form of that. It got removed on the 7 and isn’t present on the 8 as a native feature. It’s possible on the 7 running iOS 11 though, using third party AppStore apps.

I don't use it very often, but it's a nice feature and helps me a lot when I use it.

I've used it before on my tecno spark,but on a general note I rarely do use it.

Mynd44:

I actually enjoy using UC browser though. The fact that it acts like a mini and a full browser works perfectly for navigation

Uc of two years ago is different from current UC.
UC builds up too much cache this days running down precious data.

First of all ur phone must be on Android 7.0 and above. If it is then open an app, then press and hold the recent apps button to select another app. Very simple.

There are some exceptions though, like Samsung phones from the past had this feature, also some other manufacturers included it on older software but doesn't support many apps. It became available to all Android phones from Android 7.0 and supports many apps.

Also on phones that have menu button; you can press the menu button and then open another app.

DankemzI:
Mine is saying app not supported

you can actually force the apps to support it. go to settings then, go to developer options then, select or turn on this function "force activities to be resizeable".
after doing the above, test the split screen feature and see it work. this method applies to all those running Android nougat and above.

Which Samsung phone do u have? For Samsung phones that are not on Android 7.0 or higher, list of compatible apps are limited. Try with the most common apps like YouTube, chrome, whatsapp. First open chrome, then press and hold the recent apps button (multitasking button) and choose WhatsApp see if it works.

The one on Samsung is really different from split screen, you can open multiple windows on your screen with that features

Blos na d same just the implementation that differs.
Double tap the recent key on most android and u have the split screen. On a Samsung fone, just touch and drag either the left or right edge of your app and u have the multiwondow.

One problem though, Samsung multiwindow does not support all apps. Google has been copying ideas from Samsung touchwiz UI since the days of galaxy S3. If u doubt me, check the Nougat on Samsung flagship phones and the Oreo on other Oems.

I don't use it

I use it on my TECNO Phantom

Its a nice feature...

Working perfectly well on my M6

Does it only by playing a video and any other random app?

Somehow I have not been able to get the hang of this and am using infinix hot6
