Why in the world is split-screen & slide-over still missing from the iPad? At least twice a day, I want to bring up a video on Plex to reference something and I have to completely interrupt my workflow to browse Plex.

It’s the same app I use on my iPhone, so the view layout is already done for at least slide-over.

What’s the issue? Is it just a decision the developers have made because they don’t need the feature or is it that the devs just don’t think anyone needs it?

Hey @DavisNL! We’re super sorry about that. We disabled it on purpose because our app wasn’t prepared for it (i.e., it worked but the UI was absolutely awful).

We hope we can adapt it progressively until we get to a point where we’re happy to enable those features again.

Unfortunately, I can’t give estimated dates or anything like that, sorry ☹
