Hi, I don't believe you are correct on this full screen mode. I also have an iPad and since some of the app are made to run on the iPhone and iPad they are sometimes smaller on the screen until you make them full screen. That has nothing to do with split screen. Ed

I believe this button will get rid of the split screen in apps where it's a feature. I personally have never tried it because I like the split screen in apps like settings and mail. It did take some getting used to, but now I quite like having the extra info that the larger screen allows.
