2. Tap on the **Recent Apps** button (the one that looks like three vertical lines).
3. Find the app you want to add to split screen and tap on its icon.
4. Select **Open in split-screen view**.
5. The app will be displayed in the top half of the screen. Select the other app you want to use from the list of recent apps or by searching for it.
6. Both apps will now be displayed in split screen view.

**2. Using the Edge Panel:**

1. Slide out the **Edge Panel**.
2. Tap and hold on to the app you want to use in split screen view.
3. Drag it to the middle of the screen.
4. The app will be displayed in the top half of the screen. Select the other app you want to use from the list of recent apps or by searching for it.
5. Both apps will now be displayed in split screen view.

**Additional notes:**

* Not all apps support split screen view.
* You can adjust the size of the split screens by dragging the dividing line up or down.
* To close split screen view, simply tap and drag one of the apps to the top or bottom of the screen.

ii. Multitasking on Android can help you be more efficient and productive. Here are some tips to make the most of multitasking on your Android device:

1. **Recent Apps Overview:**
- Access the recent apps overview by tapping the square or recent apps button (depending on your device).
- Swipe through the list of recent apps to quickly switch between them.

2. **Split Screen:**
- Many Android devices support split-screen mode, allowing you to use two apps side by side.
- Open the recent apps overview and look for the split-screen icon on the app you want to use alongside another.
- Drag the app to the top or bottom of the screen to activate split-screen.

3. **Quick Switch:**
- Quickly switch between the two most recent apps by double-tapping the recent apps button.

4. **Gesture Navigation:**
- If your device supports gesture navigation, use swipes to navigate between apps.
- Swipe left or right on the bottom edge of the screen to switch between open apps.

5. **Floating Apps:**
- Some apps support a floating window mode, allowing you to have a small, resizable window on top of other apps.
- Check if your apps support this feature in their settings.

6. **Picture-in-Picture (PiP) Mode:**
- Certain apps, like video players, support PiP mode, allowing you to watch videos in a small window while using other apps.
- Enable PiP in the app's settings or use the dedicated PiP button when available.

7. **Use Productivity Apps:**
- Consider using productivity apps that enhance multitasking, such as task managers, note-taking apps, or apps that allow you to create floating shortcuts.

8. **Custom Launchers:**
- Explore third-party launchers that offer additional customization options, including improved multitasking features.

9. **Developer Options:**
- In the developer options on your device, you may find additional settings related to multitasking. Enable Developer Options by tapping on the build number in the "About phone" section in settings.

10. **Optimize Performance:**
- Keep your device running smoothly by regularly optimizing its performance. Close unnecessary background apps and clear cached data.

Remember that not all devices have the same features, so the availability of certain multitasking options may vary. Experiment with these tips to find the methods that work best for your specific Android device and version.
