Google has launched a developer preview for a new 'desktop windowing' feature on Android tablets, allowing users to resize and reposition application windows, similar to a desktop operating system. This feature, currently available in the Android 15 QPR1 Beta 2 for Pixel Tablets, enables multitasking with multiple apps displayed simultaneously, enhancing user productivity. The taskbar will display running applications, and users can manage windows using drag-and-drop or keyboard shortcuts. Unlike the previous full-screen default for apps, this update aims to improve the overall experience for tablet users, reminiscent of features found on the iPad and Samsung’s DeX. Developers are encouraged to adapt their applications to support this functionality, with future updates expected to optimize non-resizable apps. The full rollout schedule and compatibility with other devices, such as the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold, remain unclear.
