You need to explore multitasking - as you have a slide-over view of an App enabled…


Swipe-inwards, from the beyond the screen edge that shows the arrow; this will expose the slide-over App window. Tap the small “three-dot” button that you’ll see at the top-centre edge of the window; this will open the multitasking menu. From here you can expand the slide-over window to full-screen, split-screen - or close the window.
