I would love multitasking here hoping to the split screen view like android.
 
Pretty sure we already have split screen multitasking.... unless I’m not understanding your comment correctly?
 
Do you actually USE Android split-screen is this one of those things you say "wooaaaaa must be awesome!" without trying it ?

Netflix, FaceTime, and similar can be multitasked now on phones and tablets.

It’s not “generic” dual app / aka dual monitor support. But still works plenty well for me.

Certainly there are times when true multitasking would be nice. Like watching a stock market feed and trading at the same time. Or checking network details while running a Speedtest, etc.

No doubt Android is more flexible / powerful in this capability. Though it’s definitely an edge case.
 
I want android split screen multitasking, not facetime... 2 apps, any apps at the same time. 😇

I just wonder how Apple handles the user experience and app compatibility. Android ones look cool, but i personally don’t like it. Large screen device is where multitasking should go.
 
Im guessing you want "PC like" multitasking.. if so, enjoy being out of RAM and your 2hr battery life..
That is not necessarily true. I had a Samsung Note years ago that had great battery life. I loved it, and used multitasking every day. It is just like with a PC or my Macbook Pro. iOS is going in the right direction, I just hope it continues to grow. It really is nice to have a real multitasking mobile experience.

Troll Post?

You can't be serious, why do you think Android batteries are damn near 5000 milli?
