Android 12 may revamp split screen multitasking with “App Pairs” - XDA Developers

In Android 11, there’s a split screen feature that allows users to use two apps side-by-side.

According to 9to5Google, the search giant is “working on a full revamp of the split screen system in Android 12 with a new feature called ‘App Pairs.’” The current system pins one app and then launches another; in Android 12, App Pairs will group two apps together to use as one task.

It’s unclear if Android 12’s App Pairs feature will also provide users with the same flexibility.

According to 9to5Google’s information, Android 12’s App Pairs system will feature a divider that users can adjust.

If you want a potential glimpse of Android 12’s rumored App Pairs feature right now, 9to5Google created a helpful mockup, which we’ve included above.
