As much as people complain about TouchWiz, it does sport some rather useful features; one of the most useful being their multi-window feature. Ever since its introduction, many have wondered if Google will ever adopt their own version of the handy feature. Well we may finally have that wish fulfilled.
After the official launch of Android 5.1, an AOSP Code Commit was discovered that made reference to “multiwindows.” There weren’t many details as to what it is or how it’ll work but the easy jump is that Google is working on implementing this feature. While it’s not a feature that everyone will use, it’s still always better have than to not have.
With Google I/O on the horizon, this new software feature could be one of the highlights at the event.
