How to Split Screen on Your iPad

Launch an app installed on your iPad that you want to include in the split screen. Now, tap the three-dot icon at the top center of the app screen and choose the Split View option in the drop-down menu.

Here, you will see a dialogue box at the top center, confirming that your iPad is now in Split View mode, with the opened app moved to the left of the window.

Now, launch any app you want, and it will open in a split-screen view with the previous app.

Alternatively, instead of Split View, you can choose the Slide Over option to open the second app as a sliding window over the first app.
