Google introduces new multitasking feature for Android tablets

Google is revolutionizing the multitasking experience on Android tablets with a new feature that allows users to run apps in floating windows. This update, set to debut with Android 16, will bring a desktop-like experience to large screens and enhance productivity on tablets and foldable devices. By dragging app icons from the taskbar and dropping them into corners of the screen, users can create movable windows for seamless multitasking. The feature builds on Google's existing bubbles API and promises to streamline app switching for a more efficient workflow. With the introduction of floating windows, Google is taking a step towards achieving desktop-grade functionality on Android platforms.
