In the current version of iPadOS 17, you can turn off Split View & Slide Over (like you describe) but for years after their introduction I could find no way to turn them off after my spending hours Googling and navigating Settings. And my Googling surfaced many comments claiming that there is no way to turn them off.
- wlesieutre 2y agoDon’t know what to tell you, it’s been in there since iOS 9 when multitasking was first supported. it was originally in a Multitasking section within General settings. Here’s a discussion from 2016 which cites an iPad user guide from 2015: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7534779?sortBy=best https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7534779?sortBy=best
- hollerith 2y agoYou're cite shows it was in iOS 9, but not that it has been there since iOS 9.
- wlesieutre 2y agoIt was there in iOS 9, in iPadOS 13 (the 9to5mac link posted yesterday), and is there today in iPadOS 17, but I'll concede I'm not spending the time to rule out that Apple took the option away during the year you were trying to turn it off and then they put it back afterward.
