Apple iPads Supporting Split View Multitasking & Picture-in-Picture


Split View multitasking (also known as Split-screen multitasking) is a feature that allows you to have two apps actively running side by side on your iPad’s screen.

Picture in Picture (also written as Picture-in-Picture) is another feature that allows you to put one app over the other – and use both the apps at the same time. For ex: You can compose an email and watch the video on your iPad’s screen.


Both these features are available only on iPads running iOS 9.

But only a few of the iPad models can take advantage of them. And here, we are listing these models:
