The procedure for exiting the dual-window display mode on Android devices involves specific gestures or button presses. This functionality, often referred to as split-screen mode, allows users to operate two applications simultaneously. Terminating this mode returns the device to single-application view. For example, if the screen displays a web browser at the top and a messaging app at the bottom, the user would perform the necessary action to revert to a single, full-screen application.
Returning to a single-application view enhances focus and optimizes screen real estate for the currently active task. This is particularly beneficial for tasks requiring detailed attention or a larger display area. Early iterations of mobile operating systems lacked multitasking capabilities. The introduction of features allowing concurrent application usage, such as split-screen, marked a significant advancement in mobile device usability.
