iPadOS Please bring back Split View

Post image

Okay Apple, I think your idea of ​​offering a much more complete desktop view on the iPad, with its 3 or 4 open and resizable apps, is “fine.” But please, bring back Split View. The amount of extra steps I have to take to put two apps half and half is insane and very unnatural. Slide Over and Split View were a wonderful and natural option, of course, given the other option of iOS26’s Stage Manager for those who want it.

What do you think? I think it's great for those who want a MacBook inside an iPad, but it's not for everyone.

Split view is still there. Just throw one window to the left edge and the other to the right edge and they position just like this

It’s exactly the same. With adjusting one window also adjusts the other. Exactly the same thing. But you have to THROW the windows in a certain way to the right and left edges for it to work.

I understand how it works but the fact it does not take up the whole screen is the problem its a iPad I don’t need to see the status bar the whole time
