This feature is already available on multiple custom UIs, but those are implemented by the phone makers instead of Google.

      make simple to make great.

        It's so ironic, how due to lack of fresh ideas Google keeps repeating the chain of: bringing a feature- breaking the same- removing it entirely- introduce it back with new names - it's hilarious. The split screen activation method on Nougat was perfect, just press and hold the Recents button and there you go. But they had to remove it. So that they can bring it back. And Google shills be like wow wew etc.

        Same goes for copying recent apps layout. The vertical view was more comfortable and convenient, but they had to copy iOS style and being stupid horizontal view. When you don't have any idea of your own, or simply run out of them, you do all these, to buy time.

                            At least on MIUI you can disable the access to the network for each individual apps.

                                  I get it now. Google copies features from custom OEMs & later incorporates those features into core Android. Yey innovation. Pathetic
