As soon as you have configured two applications, both of them will take up the full screen. Each one will occupy half of the display and you will be able to use the two of them the way you are used to. However, here are some things to bear in mind:

  1. The screen can be rotated so the applications are side by side, instead of them being above and below each other.
  2. If you wish to give the first application more space on the display than the second one, the divider that splits both apps can be dragged to change their size.
  3. The 2nd application in the lower position can be changed whenever you want by exiting it and selecting another app.
  4. To quit your multitasking session and go back to using just one app on the full screen, simply use the divider that splits between both apps and drag it all the way to the top or the bottom of the display. This makes sure one app will occupy the full screen.
