Run Chrome in split screen on your phone

Here’s a nifty trick for those of you with an Android phone running Android Nougat. Did you know you can run two different tabs from your Chrome browser in split-screen mode?  Here’s how to do it.

Open the Chrome browser.

Make sure you have at least two tabs open in Chrome.

Press the Android overview button. Sometimes that’s a square just to the left of the home button. For my buttonless Galaxy S8, it’s a little double square to the left of the home icon.

Now tap the 3-dot more menu in Chrome.
