Before Windows 11, users had to install split screen software if they wanted to split their screens. While these work great, not everyone enjoys installing third-party software, especially if you have limited space. Today, we show you how to split in portrait mode.
Can I split my portrait screen into two?
Before we get into the details of how to split screen in portrait mode, let’s talk about what portrait mode is. For those unfamiliar with this term, portrait mode refers to vertical orientation. The horizontal orientation is called landscape. This is an important distinction when it comes to using two apps at once because most apps can only be used in one orientation or another but not both.
How do I split my screen vertically in portrait mode?
1. Use Windows keys
2. Use Snap layout
3. Use the mouse to resize
Another alternative to split screen in portrait mode is using your mouse. This will require a lot of manual work as you resize your windows and drag them from side to side until they are your desired size. If they are two windows, you can easily create a balance, but any more would be too much work, and we recommend using any of the above two methods instead. If an app or windows fails to split, it does not support the feature. Sometimes, it’s not the app, and you’ll find that the split screen is just not working. If so, feel free to check out our fix guide on how to get it to work again. You can also enjoy the split screen feature on your Chrome browser. We have compiled a list of split-screen extensions allowing you to view multiple windows simultaneously. And that’s how to split your screen in portrait mode on your PC.
