Working with Two Apps on One Screen

Windows lets you place two apps side by side. In fact, it will probably happen when you don’t expect it: You click a link that somebody mailed you, and all of a sudden the Mail app shrinks to fill half the screen, and Internet Explorer fills the screen’s other half to display the linked page.

Windows calls that “snapping an app” because you’re snapping one app next to another on the same screen. You can snap Start screen apps next to each other, and you can even snap a Start screen app next to your traditional Windows desktop. To snap an app, follow these steps:

Open an app that you'd like to use and snap it to the screen’s left or right. Tap an app from the Start menu to open it. When it fills the screen, slide your finger down from the screen’s top until the app turns into a small window on a blank screen, as shown in Figure 7-7.

Figure 7-7: Drag your finger down from the screen’s top edge until the app shrinks into a small window.
