Using Multi Window to run multiple apps on the
same screen
Any of the apps found within the Multi window panel can be
run at the same time as a current on-screen app.
Once multiple apps are running on the same screen, you can
then choose to either swap their positions or maximize a
desired app.
Note: Only applications found within the Multi-window panel
can be active atop another current application on the
screen.
When launching applications that contain multimedia
files (music/video), audio from both files will be played
simultaneously.
Note: Multi window can now run two separate instances of the
same application. If there are any issues with activating
Multi window, confirm the setting is activated
(page 262). Ex: Separate Messages within both the top
and bottom split views.

In this example we will be launching both the Internet and
Maps applications.
1. Launch an application.
• From the Home screen, tap
(Internet).
2. Activate the Multi window feature.
3. Tap the tab to display the apps panel.
4. Touch and hold the desired app, such as Maps, until it
detaches from the panel.
5. In a single motion, drag it over the current app and
drop the new Multi window app over either the top or
bottom area of the current on-screen app.
Note: Once two applications are running, the device displays a
split screen view containing both the initial app and the
new Multi window app.
Each application is still independent of the other.
