No Multitasking on iPad

no, the setting is not under general. No, it is not under “Home Screen and dock”. When I search the word “multitasking” in my settings nothing appears. Where is it?

How to use the Multitasking menu to open multiple iPad apps

  1. Open an app.
  2. Tap the Multitasking button  at the top of the screen.

    • If you chose Split View, the second app appears side-by-side with the current app.
