App: Enable iOS Side-by-Side on iPad (Split view)#76

Please update the app to enable opening it beside, or as a slide over, with another app.

This way the app can be seen on the same screen with the music being played.

Hi Kenneth, you mean on iPad or on iPhone? I think Apple only supports this on iPad and it probably works out of the box without us having to do anything. Have you tried it on your iPad?

You think!!! You should know before replying. Yes I’ve tried it on my new iPad Pro! Which brings up another issue. The app needs to be able to work in both portrait and landscape mode on the iPad.

Hey Kenneth, you are right! I just tried it out on my iPad and it did not work. I have asked our team to investigate if we can make this happen. Regarding landscape mode, this is a pretty significant development effort but a common feature request. I’d love to add this at some point to our app. You can upvote it here: https://suggestions.soundbrenner.com/26

Hey Kenneth, the team got back to me and researched this. They found out that in order to enable splitscreen mode our app needs to support landscape mode first. So this is something for the future. From Apple: “Note: Apps are required to support all screen orientations if it supports multitasking. Otherwise, apps will get the following error on publishing:
Invalid Bundle. iPad Multitasking support requires these orientations: “

Please make a “Split View” function for iPad to enable multi task. Thank you so much! 😊

Hi, I have discussed this idea with our engineers and basically it is an extremely high effort task because it requires to rework and test many many screens sicne they were not designed for this kind of aspect ratio from the get go. Hence this would only be something we can work on if it gets a lot more upvotes. We are currently working on other projects that have either more upvotes or a lower effort to do. Sorry I have no better news right now! I’m definitely looking forward to one day make this happen as I agree our app should work in split view, I just want to be realistic about the timeline…. cheers
