Apple has made a split screen view feature available for iOS 9 on iPad Mini 4, iPAd Air 2, as well as the new iPad Pro. The function takes multi-tasking to the next level by allowing users to use 2 apps at the same time. This means you can search, while writing, share while on social media, look up addresses while planning a holiday, and so much more.
The feature has become huge for all users of the devices mentioned above, but Chrome is definitely a favourite. Many people use Google Chrome on all their devices as it offers various features, fast browsing, and options that provide multi-tasking abilities.
Users will be able to use the feature on the smaller iPad’s, but it was actually meant for the 12.9 inch iPad Pro version. The screen is much bigger, making the multi-tasking option more usable and featureful.
Users will be able to use this option with just about any app. It simply splits the screen into 2 and provides 2 screens where different apps can be used. Here are a few useful features that can be taken advantage of that you might not have considered.
