Can I unsplit my Ipad screen?

Are you referring to split screen in Safari while your surfing the web, or is it split screen all the time? If it's in Safari you can click the icon that looks like two squares (one on top of the other) on the right hand side of the bar across the bottom of the screen. There will be two of them, one for each window. Just press and hold on one of them and you'll get some options to close the tab, start a new tab, or merge all tabs. If it's split screen all the time like there are two apps running at the same time, you can simply grab the line in the middle and slide it off the screen (basically pushing the split off the screen).

Hi

Try a reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see

Apple logo .

Also go to ibooks dowwnload ipad user guide & ios 10 user guide both are free .

Hi. To cancel split view in Safari, you tap and hold the multiwindow icon (overlapping rectangles). The may be a setting to disable it permanently in Settings > Safari or Settongs > General > Multitasking.

Thank you Brian for your help, but I am afraid none of this works.

Any other ideas? The screen seems 'locked' as I cannot grab the centre line nor bring in either of the sides.

In the bottom of each window in safari when you have it in split screen, you'll see some control icons. There is the icon for going back, and going forward. Next to those is a few more. If you press and hold on the icon all the way to the right which looks like on square on top of another you'll get a menu that pops up. Once that pops up, you'll see "Merge All Tabs". If you click on that, you'll get all your tabs on one screen and you'll have removed the split screen. The clicking and dragging the size of the windows from the bar in the middle, that is only used when you have multiple apps open at once not safari.

Finally That worked. Not very obvious solution until explained.
