You don’t drag an app to one side. You have to do a special flicking gesture; a gesture that’s undiscoverable, and very, very difficult to invoke consistently.And I just stated… you don’t have to click on the traffic buttons. You can do it by dragging a window/app off to one side left/right and it will align itself
And even with that gesture, it’s still take several times longer to create a Split View in iPadOS 26 vs iPadOS 18.
Okay dude, we’re just going to have to agree to disagree. You may be an iPadOS 26 super user, but I pretty consistently cannot create a Split View without experiencing a 20 second long exercise in pure frustration.I’ve been using iPadOS 26 beta ever since it launched…. It does not take 12 taps to get into SplitView especially when you have the option to drag. Having an app already open.. you drag the 2nd app in, slide it off to one side to align that left/right. And with the initial app that’s open… you slide that off to the other end. I can do that within 3 seconds.
