Split the Screen

Before you get started, go to Settings > Accessibility features > Multi-Window, and make sure that Multi-Window dock is enabled.

You can enable split-screen mode in any of the following ways (depending on your device model):

• When an app is open and displayed in full-screen mode, swipe up from the bottom to or in the top left corner of the screen. Then open another app that supports split-screen mode.

• When an app is opened and displayed in full-screen mode, swipe inward from the left or right edge of your phone and hold, to bring up the Multi-Window dock. Hold down on an app in the dock, drag it on to the screen, and release.

Common Operations in Split-Screen Mode

When in split-screen mode, feel free to:

• Switch split screens: Touch or between the two split screens, and then touch Flip top/bottom or Flip left/right.

  You can also touch and hold down on at the top of a split screen until this split screen shrinks, then drag this split screen to the other split screen and release, to switch split screens.

• Adjust the split screen ratio: Drag between the two split screens to adjust the relative size of each split screen.

• Switch a split screen to a floating window: Touch and hold down on near the top of a split screen, and drag it to the left or right (in portrait mode) or downwards (in landscape mode).

• Exit split-screen mode: Drag or between the two split screens, until the other split screen disappears.

In Split-screen mode, you can save common split-screen combinations to the home screen, and touch to apply them.

Touch or between the two split screens, and touch Save combo to save the split-screen combination to your home screen.

Drag and Drop Between Apps with Multi-Window

Use the Multi-Window feature to easily drag and drop images, text, and documents between apps.

• Drag and drop an image: When taking notes with Notepad, open Files, select the photo you want to add, and drag it into the Notepad editor.

• Drag and drop text: When sending an SMS message, open Notepad, touch and hold the text you want to send, and drag it into the message text input box.

Not all apps fully support drag-and-drop with Multi-Window.
