Google officially introduced the split-screen mode for smartphones with Android 7.0 Nougat in 2016. It allowed users to multi-task with two running apps at the same time. No more will you need to pause your video to reply to a message!
The split-screen mode is available on most Android smartphones, including Vivo Y81. Check out this guide for you if you’re not aware of this convenient feature:
Activate it
If you haven’t turned on the split-screen mode on your Vivo phone, all you have to do is go to your settings and enable it. Once you’re done with that, you can start multi-tasking!
Three fingers are all you need
While using an app, slide down three fingers on your phone’s screen to use the split-screen feature on your Vivo. Then, choose the other app you wish to run, and you’re good to go!
Tip: Remember, it’s slide down. Sliding up three fingers takes a screenshot instead.
Split-screen in full-screen view
Your Vivo may sometimes enable split-screen mode by itself. This situation usually happens when you’re running an app in full-screen view, and you receive a floating popup. If you click on it, your screen will split into two halves automatically.
Adjust your split-screen size
When your phone splits the screen into two equal areas, it can be difficult to use the apps, especially if you need more space to view your screen. You can solve this problem by dragging the splitting dot in the middle and adjust accordingly.
Ending the split-screen mode
There are few ways to disable the split-screen feature when you’re finished using it. The first method is to long-tapping the split-screen app switching icon, and it will close the app at the bottom. The other way is to drag the divider line all the way up or down of your display.
Conclusion
The split-screen mode is very convenient for people that want people to run two apps simultaneously. However, it is important to note that not all apps are available in split-screen mode.
