9to5Mac • • general
Key Points:
- iPadOS 27.2, released last week, introduces a new multitasking feature that simplifies setting up side-by-side apps, inspired by the iPhone Duo's Split View system.
- Previously, configuring Split View on iPadOS required multiple steps, including resizing the first app and manually selecting and resizing the second app.
- With iPadOS 27.2, when an app is tiled to the left or right using window controls, the Home Screen appears immediately, allowing users to select a second app with a single tap.
- This update makes multitasking on iPad more intuitive and efficient, though it is not an exact replication of the iPhone Duo experience.
- Users can further speed up multitasking by mastering keyboard shortcuts for app tiling introduced in this update.
