In tablet mode, you can also resize your split screen apps, but you don't have full control over the sizing like in clamshell mode.If the app you want to use isn't already open or on the shelf, then you'll need to open the app and restart this process. After you have one side covered, the other side of your screen will show you other available windows and you can easily select one of them to take up the other half of your screen.At this point, you can either continue the gesture to snap your most recent app to one side of the screen or select a new app from the overview screen.

Simply swipe up and hold from the bottom to trigger overview mode.

You can then repeat this for the opposite side to add another window.

This will create a 50% window on your chosen side.

Simply slide your finger over the side you want to move the window to.

Long-press the maximize/minimize button next to the close window button up on the top-right of your window/app top bar and you’ll see an arrow appear on both sides.

If you prefer touch input, you can also enable split screen this way on touchscreen-enabled Chromebooks.

Repeat the same for the other window on the opposite side and you’re ready to multitask.

This will place the chosen window at 50% size on your desired side of the screen.

Using the cursor, drag the window you want to align to either side of the screen and release it.

Perhaps the simplest method is to use the touchpad and drag windows to either side of your screen. We cover all three in this section -mouse, touch, and keyboard shortcuts. In clamshell mode, there are a lot of options for using split screen on your Chromebook.
