What is Split-screen?

Split-screen is a feature that lets you do multitask on your smartphone. You can open and use two different applications on a single screen at the same time. Samsung even lets you enable Split-Screen view for all applications so you won’t have to compromise in any situation.

Many times there comes a situation when you need to copy text from one application n paste it to another or want to text and watch videos at the same time, or many others. Instead of jumping back and forth between apps, you can use the split screen view, which will open both applications for you on your screen.
