        Divided screen works on my phone whether Opera is opened 1st or 2nd. Also works in landscape. When I selected Opera for the bottom half, there was a toast note saying the feature might not work with this app, but it worked fine.

          While divided screen there's no possibility to reach bottom menu at all!

            I see. It probably varies with the device. In landscape, I can use the bottom toolbar on my phone but can't see the popup menu on the far right. Being able to see the toolbar seems to depend on how much I resize the other app. If 2nd app takes up more than half of the screen, I can't get to Opera's bottom toolbar.

            My phone is brand new & I haven't used split screen before so I'm not sure how it is supposed to behave. Just thought I'd try it out after reading your post. 🙂

              To work properly app has to support divided screen feature (has to be modified for such using)

                Just updated to Nougat on my S7
                Prior on Marshmallow I was able to use split screen without any issues.

                Now when I trybto do it, it states that Opera has not been optimized and that it won't work correctly.

                And it doesn't work, if I select the Opera window as the active one the other window "freezes" I set the other window as active Opera goes blank with just a white window displayed.

                Before Nougat I could use Google Maps navigation and Opera in a window that updated data every 2 minutes without any issues. Now if I watch my data Navigation is frozen and If I set the active screen to Google Maps the Opera window is blank.
