Hello everyone.
I was wondering what you thought of the iPad Air 2 with Voiceover and split screen on iOS 9?
Thank you

I like that split screen function, use it all the time on the air 2 and mini 4. Safari on left and Twitter on the right suits me fine. It's very handy because VO loses where you were if you don't split screen twitter, if you just close it normally and reopen, you're back at the top.

Hi. Which iPad do you have? How's split screen on the mini 4? Thanks.

Ok I just picked up an iPad Mini 4 and I'm having a hard time making this work. Anyone care to share the steps to pull it off? Thanks much!

Hi.
I believe you swipe left on the status bar, then pick an app from the list of apps.
Then there will be a slider, which voiceOver will tell you how much of the screen an app takes up.
Let me know if this works.

Hi. Just a correction you swipe right at the top of the screen.

Awesome it's working now. It is a three finger swipe to the left. Thanks everyone!

Hi. I thought it was swipe to the right. At least that's what it does on my iPad. Glad it's working for you. How do you like it? When I tested it at the store it was really cool. Do you think the screen is too small?
