Split screen iOS 8 coming for the iPad

A new rumor has emerged about iOS 8 supporting split screen multitasking for iPads only. This is a big departure from Steve Jobs simplicity, while this doesn’t feel very Apple like, there could be some huge advantages like the ability to drag and drop pictures or even files if they add the Finder application for iOS 8.

There was a jailbroken tweak that was released last month that allows users to multitask on the iPad and while it looks cool, the practicality of if it is only so-so.

We will definitely find out more in the coming weeks with WWDC coming up from June 2nd to the 6th, this rumor is most likely has a 30% chance of happening.

Would you use split screen in iOS 8 or would it be a useless feature?
