Note 8 App Pair Feature

When we talk about multitasking on phones, one Operating System that instantly comes to our minds is no doubt, Android. For power users or normal users alike, Android OS is the one-stop go when it comes to multitasking capabilities. Moreover, With the introduction of the much awaited multi-window feature on Android 7.0 Nougat last year, it allowed you to open two apps at the same time. However, speaking of multi-window feature, in particular, let us all not forget the fact that Samsung has had this amazing feature since the debut of the Galaxy Note 2 in 2012. The Split-screen Creator app can add the Note 8 App Pair Feature on any Android device.

Naturally, any tech enthusiast with an active internet connection surely knows that the Galaxy Note 8 debuted late last month. The Galaxy Note 8 brings to the table a new feature related to the aforementioned multi-window functionality. The feature is called App Pair. It basically allows you to open two of your favorite apps at once by creating custom shortcuts for your two favorite apps on the home screen. Today, I have brought an app for you, that provides you with the ability to enjoy the Galaxy Note 8’s App Pair feature on your favorite device. The app is simply called Split-screen creator.

Enough said, now let’s go through the setup of the app and also see it in action with the help of the screenshots below. Let’s get started.
