Yes. It's not very obvious. Just open up your task manager. Press and hold on the app Icon on top of the window you want to split screen and another menu pops up with the option. From there it's pretty muchh the same as before.

No need to touch and hold. Just touch it like any app icon.

Maybe I'm missing something, but are you all saying you can open the same app twice by opening it once in split screen and the opening it a second time in split screen? Because I just tried this with Chrome and LinkedIn, and they both crashed when I tried to open the second instance of the same app.
That is, I opened chrome, hit the button to bring up the open apps list, converted chrome to open in split screen, then tried to open chrome a second time from the app list on the open half of the screen, and it crashed. The same thing with the LinkedIn app.
Are you saying there is a way to open the same app twice?
Thanks,
Joe

That's the multi window feature... Drag an app out from it into the top or bottom of the screen, then do it again.
I am an idiot Thanks Guys.

Since I'm on a roll ... how can I add an app? I see "Edit" and "Drag Here" but it seems only to allow me to add remove items already on the sidebar.
You can't add an app other than those given, unless you flash the zip made by Paul O'Brien of MoDaCo.

[Q] How to internet resize and settings question? How to minimize and close?

1.Hello, so the old note 10.1 has a "resize/multi window" button on the top right corner, how do I resize the internet browser in the 2014 edition w/o going into multi-window mode? As in just dragging the window a bit smaller?
2. Also, for settings - is it possible for settings to be in multi-window mode? I'd rather have it on the side so I can browse the internet while playing with the settings?
3. Anyway to close the internet browser by just pressing "x" in the corner or somewhere?
4. Also, how to resize apps like gallery w/o doing multiwindow?
5. Anyone else experience lag a bit w/ BT keyboard? When I get the word "English (US)" on bottom I always experience a bit of lag? Fix? I disabled onscreen keyboard.
6. For registering the $600 dollar parks, it keeps saying incorrect serial number and MAC address? I cannot seem to register.
Thanks!

You don't. If you want a resizable window open the browser in Pen Window using Air Command. Once you do, when you minimize it, you'll get a floating icon that lets you use your N10.1-14 normally but by clicking on the icon you can then open the browser at any time. A Multi View option like what you know as "Cascade" on the old Note is coming in the 4.4/M-UX update.

No. But using the above you can open a browser and have it running on top of anything else you want.

If you have a single browsing session up clicking "X" on its tab closes it and ends your Internet session (hitting "back" exists out of the browser). If you have multiple tabs open hit the menu button and select "close all."

No resizing, other than Pen Window apps, until 4.4/M-UX.

Do you have a Groupon refurb? It may have been previously registered. If not, contact Samsung support they've been pretty helpful according to those that posted issues getting the perks credit.

Woah, thanks. This was so helpful.
Another 3 questions:
1. Last one Moon reader+ supported multi-window and where I would just minimize moon reader and have the internet in the background? Is there any way to do this or do I wait until next update for casacae mode? Moon reader+ is a ebook reader btw. I was also able to move Moon Reader+ around wherever I wanted. I can't seem to do that here.
2. Bluetooth keyboard tends to lag in LectureNotes (badly) and has a slight, but annoying lag in QuickOffice. This doesn't seem to happen in Polaris Office, or when I do short typing. But once I type longer it starts lagging and sometimes English(US) pops up and cause more lag. Anyway to fix this? thanks.
I have Microsoft Wedge and this worked perfectly on my Note 10.1 2012.
Also, anyway to resize and move applications around that used to support multi-window? Like resizing any way you want to, not just to the right or left. How come some had multi-window in previous Note, but not anymore in this one? Like lectureNotes?
3. Another odd one is Polaris Office 5 says it cannot open a .docx file right after I downloaded it because it isn't supported. But it works fine when I look for it in file browsing in PO5.

Qslide problems

I somehow removed some apps from qslides list of available apps to use. Quick memo is not in the list but quick memo is on the phone. I can use it if launched from app drawer. But launching it from quick settings or hitting the qslide button while in full screen it goes to the floating window and disappears. Also the phone app is in the qslide menu. When i try to use it, it the flosting window pops up but disappears. All was working fine before.
Has anyone run into this problem?
Any suggestions?

I guess quick memo was never in the qslide list even though it is a qslide app. its right there in the quick settings.
fixed the other problem with it some things not staying on float window by unchecking don't keep activities box in the developer options.
When I try to use my qslide messaging app, it opens the box coverin almost my entire screen, and I do not have access to the send button. So i have to blindly get to the real messaging app on my phone, open it so the qslide box goes away...HELLPPP
If you can't see the lower right corner of the window to resize it, tap the QSlide icon at the upper-left corner of the title bar.
Messaging error qslide
The messaging box is from top to bottom, there is no x, no send button, the ONLY way to get out of it is by opening the normal messaging app.
Post a screenshot so we can see what it looks like.

My Qslide is gone. Nothing happens when I swipe down. Has been gradually getting worse. Worked for awhile if I turned screen off and back on. Restarted phone twice. Nothing. Yes my screen is clean.

First home screen removal

I hate the screen to the left of my home screen, how can I remove it?
Open the home screen you want to remove, long press anywhere on that screen until you see the WIDGETS button at the bottom, press WIDGETS button, then just long press the screen you wish to remove and drag to the top to remove.
To change or add back just do the same, but instead just put a check in the widgets you want adding. HTH

Unfortunately, there is no way to remove it with the touchwiz launcher, unrooted.

What did I just post above? You don't need root or anything else to remove it. However you will have to leave at least one widget, that cannot be removed.

Your response does not make sense. You can't remove the screen and you must leave at least one widget on it.

There are 2 screens to the left, you can remove the first one easily. The last one only the widgets can be removed except for one.
Just use an other launcher...
Use different launcher. Even custom Roms have that screen. I think it is unremovable.

I think your referring to something else. There are no such options on the tab s.

Question How to get rid of Split Screen/Multi-Window?

I've started getting split screen view to appear way too often, without me intending to call it up.
Then when it appears, I can drag the middle bar to the top or bottom to disable it, but then it reappears after a second again. It's really annoying.
Is anyone else experiencing this "feature?" How to disable it?
Does anyone have ideas? I wonder if it has to do with the Nova launcher?
Basically while on a Skype call, for example, I'd try to swipe up to minimize Skype and select another app, but instead of showing a full-screen app with a small Skype window, it goes to split screen.
If I move the middle bar up or down, it usually closes the second screen but within a second it reopens it again. Or closes the second app, but it opens the next app that's in the background.
I can't find a way to simply disable split screen, as I don't like using it on phones.
Swipe into your recent app drawer, then click on the app icon above the window.

This is definitely a Nova Launcher feature - as it isn't an option using the stock launcher. Just a guess, but I imagine you can disable said feature within the Nova Launcher settings.
Happened to mines once and I'm using stock launcher, I was in an app and opened a link on that app and it turned into split screen, I actually found it rather handy
