All this ram and what is it even for? I want to keep my train app open so i can see if there's a delay on my journey but god forbid i open signal to answer a message and suddenly the OS be like SHIT FUCK TIME TO CULLLLLLLL and I go back to my train app to find its closed it down and I've lost the train page i was on. So... I have to go back into the fucking search to go find it again.... But that doesn't work because if the trains already departed it doesn't let me go back in time...

Why... Why.... If we're gonna pillage half the world and burn it to the ground YOU COULD AT LEAST LET ME KEEP 2 APPS OPEN. Can't even pin apps anymore to prevent me from accidentally closing them.. why? Why whats the point in removing that featue... Don't worry though google will probably swap around the silent/vibrate function with the pRiOriTy nOtfiCatiOn shit again because why not

Android used to let you use two apps at once, you would hold the square button for a second and it would shrink your current app to the corner, and then you would open another and it would split screen the two of them.

~~idk when they got rid of it but I used to use it a lot and it worked fine so I really don't know why they did.~~

edit: they still have it but they inexplicably changed how to do it

Mine still does, three finger swipe up, choose second app, split screen.

Give that a shot and see if it works?

I use all gensture navigation, so it might be different if you use the three buttons.

Oh I just figured it out, instead of hold pressing the square you gotta press square to get your app overview, and then tap on the icon for the app you want to split screen and select the split screen option.
