"Over the years, Apple has gradually enhanced the iPad to make it feel more like a Mac. One way it's pulled off this trick is by giving it more multitasking skills. That's especially true in iPadOS 26. With the new OS version on a supported iPad, you can open an app in a resizable and moveable window, just like on a Mac. You're then able to launch multiple windows and drag them around the screen."
"Next, you're able to close, minimize, or maximize a window through one of the icons in the upper left. You can automatically arrange your open windows so that they're all viewable on the screen. Plus, a menu bar displays a toolbar of commands for your current app. The new windowed capability is an upgrade over the Split View and Slide Over options from older versions of iPadOS."
iPadOS 26 lets supported iPads open apps in resizable, movable windows similar to a Mac, enabling multiple windows that can be launched and dragged around the screen. Swiping up from the bottom lets users temporarily peek at all windowed apps. Icons in the upper-left of each window allow closing, minimizing, or maximizing, and automatic arrangement ensures all open windows can be viewable. A menu bar provides a toolbar of commands for the current app. The windowed model complements existing Split View, Slide Over, and Stage Manager options. Compatible hardware and iPadOS 26 or later are required; check Settings > General > Software Update.
