split screen

[ezzzzz]

when I have Netflix on one side, if I touch the other side video playback pauses. in YouTube I get a toast message that I must subscribe to red to watch video and scroll on the other side. do u think the Netflix will start working someday? is it Google or Netflix? this is on my N9

Not sure about now, but I know as of this past December not even the iPad supported it. And I don't think any of the Galaxy devices with split screen capabilities let you do it either. But I could be wrong.

hmm interesting, because I can't think of any reason why I would want a split screen. I thought I cud watch a video and be scrolling thru email or something. so wht do peeps do with the split?

Personally? I couldn't really care less about watching YT and chatting on Hangouts... I have a 5.7" phone because I want to see videos on a 5.7" display. What DOES interest me is the data sharing aspect. I've cut and paste text between windows a fair amount and some of the things I've seen have the ability to drag and drop text between the two sessions.

Whatever can make that process easier/simpler/more efficient, I'm good with. Not saying it'd be a life saver or 'must have'... but anything that improves the experience, minor or not, I welcome.
