Mine is even s3 mini and its android version is 4.2.2 and it works perfectly. All you need is first, play the video from the inbuilt video player and you can take the video anywhere with you while equally doing other things. Or even if you are already doing something else, the video must be played from the inbuilt video player

Like I said this feature had been available on Samsung flagship phones for a long time. But for every other Android phones it's only available from Android 7.0.

Moreover this one u have is not multi window. It's pop up window where u can play video from the inbuilt video player and then minimize it let it play in a small window while u do something else. But u cannot play touribe video and what's app at the same time. Or open navigation and web browser at the same time. That is only available on Android 7.0 upwards on every phones and on Samsung flagship phones from gakaxy s4 or so. Samsung flagships even have advanced features like opening up to 4 windows at the same time side by side, more advanced than the native Android multi window.

If ur phone is not running Android 7.0 and above don't bother, unless u have a Samsung flagship phone then it can work with even Android 5.0. if ur phone meets the specifications, then open an app, then press and hold the recent apps button and it will bring out a list of apps that can be opened in the second window. Or u can also do it by holding the recent apps button, then press home button and select another app and both apps will appear in a multiwindow.

I'm using Samsung J3 emerge

lowkey28:
I find it difficult using it unless I'm chatting with my girlfriend.

Yeah,didn't miss anything.

greenhulk:
I use it everyday. Watching YouTube and whatsapping couldn't be better.

Mine is saying app not supported

Tenison96:


Not necessarily Android 7.0.
I first used it on android 5.1

I first used it on my Samsung s4, i think android 4.4.2 v

My problem with smartphone is how its screen is easily scattered!

Doesn't work when I am on my Uc Browser which defeats the purpose.

Donahue:
How often do you use the split screen function in your smartphone?

I've tried and tried. It simply minimises. But there have been times when I accidentally activated split screen...But I just don't know how it happened.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime.

It's a handy function...comes I handy when I am doing something important with MA phone and bae comes online[ whatsapp... ]

U know what's up, the never ending chat. Respond to her chat in milli-seconds or u get query to answer.

open the apps u want to work with.

Press and hold[long press] the minimise button.

The screen should split at this juncture.

Note: can only Vouche it works on phones running android V7.0. Though some Samsung users claim the feature works on lesser versions.

Good luck.

Using Uc browser is a defeated purpose this days.

First of all ur phone must be on Android 7.0 and above. If it is then open an app, then press and hold the recent apps button to select another app. Very simple.

Seems Like It Doesn't Work On IPhones Bro ?

Proudlyngwa:

I actually enjoy using UC browser though. The fact that it acts like a mini and a full browser works perfectly for navigation

Oh I tried it on my s7 edge now..looks cool

you're wrong there. You can split screen on Touchwiz from android 5.0

I use it almost everyday especially if I have a list of numbers on whatsapp to call, I'll be going through the numbers while dialing. It's a utility feature. When you start using it, you will wonder how you lived without it.

Can't remember the last time i use it, this post just remind me I have a feature like this on my phone.. Oya make i use am.

greenhulk:


Yes Samsung had it on their older devices, but it became a native Android feature from Android 7.0 upwards

The one on Samsung is really different from split screen, you can open multiple windows on your screen with that features

even LG got it since G4 (2015). What's the fuss about it now?

Always. Dunno if I can do without it lolz

greenhulk:

U are on Android 5.1. Sorry split screen can't work

I'm on Android 5.1 and it works here with my beautiful coolpad.

Waow! I didn't even know my tecno WX3 PRO has these features!!!
Just tried it now, and am enjoying it....

I am using M5 can it work on it?

I watch video on my Mg and also run another app. All you need do is open a video and minimize the screen, you can shift the video to any direction; up or down while the other app keeps running.....
