Tech reviewer @stephenrobles gives a good look at the return of Slide Over in iPadOS 26.1 Beta 2, and a great argument for the return of the old Split Screen mode (which I wholeheartedly second!). I’m bummed that Slide Over only allows for one app, but it’s a step in the right direction. Keep listening, Apple!

YES!! The absence of this has been driving me nuts. But it does seem to have a new restriction that I hope will get taken away at some point:

“Slide Over only supports one app per display, so while you can only position one window on your main iPad display, if you use an external display, you can position a different app on that one.”
