If you have a newer iPad, you can use the split-screen feature to run two apps side by side on the same screen. Here's how to do it:

  1. Open the first app you want to use in split-screen mode
  2. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open the Dock
  3. Tap and hold on the second app you want to use until it pops out of the Dock
  4. Drag the second app to the left or right side of the screen
  5. You can adjust the size of the split screen by dragging the divider between the two apps left or right

Note that not all apps support split-screen mode, so if you don't see the option to drag an app to the side of the screen, it may not be compatible. Also, some older iPads may not support split-screen mode at all.

To use the split-screen feature on your iPad, follow these steps:

  1. Open the first app you want to use.
  2. Tap the multitasking button at the top of the screen. It looks like two overlapping squares.
  3. Tap the Split View button. It looks like a square with two arrows pointing to the left and right.
  4. Select the second app you want to use. It will appear in the other half of the screen.
  5. You can resize the two apps by dragging the divider between them.
  6. To exit split-screen, tap the multitasking button again and then tap the Full Screen button.

You can also use the split-screen feature to open multiple windows of the same app. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the app you want to use.
  2. Tap the multitasking button at the top of the screen.
  3. Tap the Slide Over button. It looks like a square with a plus sign in the middle.
  4. Select the second window of the app you want to use. It will appear in a smaller window on the right side of the screen.
  5. You can move the window around by dragging it. You can also resize it by dragging the edges of the window.
  6. To close the window, tap the Close button in the top left corner of the window.

You can also use the split-screen feature to use two apps at the same time. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the first app you want to use.
  2. Tap the multitasking button at the top of the screen.
  3. Tap the Slide Over button. It looks like a square with a plus sign in the middle.
  4. Select the second app you want to use. It will appear in a smaller window on the right side of the screen.
  5. To use the two apps at the same time, drag the divider between the apps to the left or right. This will resize the two apps so that you can see both of them at the same time.
  6. To close the window, tap the Close button in the top left corner of the window.
