In donwloadsource.es we have already talked about the possibility of dividing the screen of our Android device in order to be able to use two applications at the same time being able to simultaneously view the content of both. This option was not available for iOS devices until the launch of its new models, iPad Pro 11 or iPhone 11.

However, it should be noted that the use of using 2 applications at the same time showing their contents simultaneously on iPhone and iPad has certain restrictions since not all the applications that are currently available are compatible with the iOS split screen function..
The drawback of using two applications at the same time on the screen of your iOS device is that this function is not very intuitive, so many users do not even know it exists.
Without a doubt, the split screen function considerably improves the user experience since it allows viewing and using two applications at the same time and even exchanging content between them..
That said, in this guide we show you how to use the function that allows you to open two apps on the divided screen of your iPhone or iPad:
How to use split screen mode on iPhone or iPad
- Open the second app you want to use in split screen mode. You only have to open and close it for a short period of time so that it is displayed in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.
- Now you will have to open the main app..
- When the app is open, you must slide the bottom of the screen up, this will reveal the anchored applications as well as the recently opened ones. Therefore, you will have access to the app that you recently opened and closed again.
- Hold this second app and then drag it to the center of the screen.
- By placing this second app on top of the already open one, you should get a rectangular shape. It is at this point that you must drag the app either to the left or right, depending on the position you want the app to have.
- Drop the second app to check how the content of the first app and the second app are now displayed.
Important Note: If, when you select and drag the second application, it is shown in a second box, it means that unfortunately the application does not support split screen mode.
As and as we have mentioned, the split screen function that allows you to use two apps at the same time, has certain limitations since at the moment not all applications are compatible.
