To split the screen on a computer or mobile device, the method depends on the operating system.
Split Screen on Windows (10 and 11)
- Drag a window by its title bar to the left or right edge until an outline appears, then release to snap it to that side.
- Use keyboard shortcuts: select a window and press Windows key + Left Arrow to snap left, or Windows key + Right Arrow to snap right.
- In Windows 11, hover over the maximize button and select a snap layout, or press Windows key + Z for Snap Layouts to arrange multiple windows.
- You can also split the screen into four quadrants by snapping windows to corners.
- Resize windows by dragging the divider between them.
Split Screen on Mac
- Click and hold the green full-screen button on a window.
- Choose "Tile Window to Left of Screen" or "Tile Window to Right of Screen."
- Select another window to fill the opposite side.
- Adjust the width by dragging the divider.
- Exit Split View by clicking the green button again.
Split Screen on Android
- Open recent apps.
- Tap and hold the app icon at the top, select "Split screen."
- Choose the second app to fill the other half.
- Adjust the divider to resize.
