• OnePlus is bringing Open Canvas to its candy bar smartphones with Oxygen OS 15.
• Once the feature is enabled, you can swipe up with three fingers to enter split-screen mode and then resize the app windows to get an app that is almost full-screen and another overflowing on the top or bottom.

One of the big highlight features of the OnePlus Open at its launch was Open Canvas. As we mentioned in our OnePlus Open review, it is one of the best approaches to multitasking on any foldable phone. Open Canvas allows you to run up to three apps side-by-side in fullscreen, letting you seamlessly switch between them. If you’ve been envious of OnePlus users who could use Open Canvas, here’s some good news: OnePlus is bringing Open Canvas to its candy bar phones with Oxygen OS 15 based on Android 15.

Open Canvas was launched with the OnePlus Open and later extended to the company’s tablet, the OnePlus Pad 2. On these large-screen devices, Open Canvas lets you run two apps in split-screen mode and hang a third app to overflow on the side. A quick four-finger pinch will reveal all apps simultaneously on the screen, but more often than not, the two-plus-one layout works better for multitasking.
