Multi task apps

[jammiedodgers182]

I downloaded lecture notes app this evening and noticed it can be used as a multi window app. I previously thought it was just the apps that are preinstalled that could use this feature I was wondering if there is a list of apps anywhere that can be downloaded and used as multi windows?

I don't know of a list, thought I hope someone here might. Facebook, Firefox, YouTube, and twitter do also. I can't remember if I installed twitter and YouTube or not or if they were pre installed though.

If you go to Play Store and Search for "s-pen apps" you'll see what's available. There's also Category in the Samsung app store named "Best S Pen Apps". I'm pretty sure most if not all of these are "multi-task" apps. If you're rooted, there are some tools available at Xda-Developers that can be used to make just about any app into the "multi-task" variety. The issue there is that if the app is updated from Play Store, the "multi-task" feature is lost and must be re-applied.

I just wanted to add to what Bluzman was saying above. I Rooted my GN to use an App that I saw on XDA Forums called Multi Window Manager. The app is in the play store, but you have to be Rooted to use it. Just be aware, that not Every App works in Multi View. The main app I wanted to use with the Multi Window Manager App, didn't work in MultiView. So it doesn't work with everything, although most of the apps did that I tried. I ended up not using it, because as of now, I only use the Multiview with the Browser, S Note, and a few other apps. So ended up unrooting and back to stock.
