rkbishop Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I'm considering getting an iPad that will allow for iOS 9 feature of split screen. I'm imagining having my notes for a lesson open in Pages and the text open alongside it in Accordance. Does anyone know how well this is working? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) You can currently open another app via *Slide Over* alongside Accordance, but not the other way around. We're working on official Split View support for 2.3. *edited for accuracy Edited September 18, 2015 by Rick Bennett 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 This is not Split Screen, it's the Slide-over feature. Split screen requires newer hardware than I have to test. Perhaps the developers can comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the developers can comment. Helen, are you saying Rick's example is Slide Over? Will iOS get the Split Screen, or am I misinformed? I'm just wondering about how useful the new functionality is to help determine if it's time to upgrade my iPad 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan S Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Here is a video explaining Split Screen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=70&v=jorwzOsPAYs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) I don't think any other Bible software has Split View or Slide Over as of yet. To be clear, as Rick said, Accordance Mobile allows you to Slide Over another app, but Accordance would have to program in support so that you could be in another app first (say, Pages), and then access Accordance via Slide Over (to look up a quick verse, e.g.). And then Split View is its own thing, related to but separate from Slide Over. No idea what the programming entails, but would love to see support for both ways of accessing the app. Edited September 25, 2015 by Abram K-J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross.strader Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Any update on when split-screen support will be available? Seems like I saw a screen shot of an OS Beta on an iPad Pro and Accordance was split-screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross.strader Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Helen, Thank you for the update. I've been using the iPad Pro for about a week now and I look forward to maximzing the Accordance App. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
