iPad Slide Over is back 

Needless to say how pleased I was to discover that the latest beta release of iPadOS 26 re-introduces Slide Over (or introduces it?) after lamenting over its disappearance.

A new menu item named “Enter Slide Over” has been added to the bottom of the windowing menu on iPadOS 26.1 beta 2.

The feature is implemented in an elegant way, and blends in well with the rest of the new windowing system.

The only caveat (for now?) is that you can only have 1 application at a time in Slide Over mode, but who knows what the next releases have in store.
