Why not take out the 0s and say 9:1
Do you split the bill 50:50 or 5:5?
Screen aspect ratios are typically represented at their lowest whole number, no? That’s why we have 4:3 instead of 8:6 etc so I thought the same applied here
This isn’t a screen aspect ratio. It’s a ratio of 1 portion of the screen to another portion of the screen.
It’s short for 90%:10%. 1 app uses 90% of the screen and another uses 10% of the screen.
It’s not comparing the length of 1 edge of the screen to a perpendicular edge of the screen.
It’s a ratio of 1 portion of the screen to
another9 portion(s) of the screen.FTFY
7.4:7.4

1:1
Because people are dumb and would be asking why they only use 10% of the screen…
Hyperbole
Close enough, welcome back Samsung Continuum.
Can’t wait for my three screen fold out phone so I can have the desktop experience in the palm of my hand!
Honestly kind of cool. I don’t use split screen much but when I do it’s usually for maps and music because having the ability to swipe to the next song is often more reliable that my steering wheel controls. Easier to use in rental cars in my experience too. Not sure I need it to be that extreme for my use case though.
Isn’t it adjustable already? Or is that only in the versions I use (Lineage forks).
It would be nice to be able to set a default other than 50:50
The new trick is that when you tap on the bottom 10%, it’ll make that app take up 90%, and the app you were just in will be downsized to the remaining 10%. As for why this is considered better than pressing the multitasking button twice, I have no idea. I’ve honestly never enjoyed the split screen feature on my phone, but I multitask a lot.
Engineers need to stay busy I guess, even if every feature a phone needs has been implemented.
It is but I guess not as far as 90%?
I always like to watch videos vertically.
Then you’ll love being able to read a description of Android Authority at the same time.
Obviously, the screen could then be mostly text actually, say 30:70 instead of the proposed 90:10.
