How to remove split screen

How can I remove or disable split screen. Sometimes I get split screen out of the blue. And when I have a split screen I cannot easily remove it. Why?

To transform a Slide Over view, to Split Screen, use the grey drag-bar at the top of the Slide Over Window; drag downwards and to towards the side of the screen. As the view changes, lift your finger. Done. Dragging the drag-bar to top-centre of the screen changes to a full screen view.


It’s also worth noting that you can easily change a Slide Over to Full Screen view in a similar way. This time, using the same drag-bar, drag to the top-centre of the screen, then release.
