My iPad software updated to iOS 15.4 and now I can’t figure out how to turn off multitasking/split screen. None of the suggestions when I Google apply to the new iPad configuration. I hate split screen, and it’s a pain to get rid of it constantly.

Unlike iPadOS14 and earlier versions, multi-tasking cannot now be disabled from settings. Multi-tasking has received a significant overhaul, both simplifying its use and introducing new controls.
Key to accessing and controlling multi-tasking is the small “three-dot” button that is found at the top-centre edge of the screen.
More information about using multi-tasking can be found in this support page:

The iPad User Guide is also a rich source of information about using iPad and its many features. The Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:
