So it seems that only certain apps work with multi-screen and it is not just samsung apps.
Here I plan (with your help) to create a difinitive list of all apps that will work.
I have already noticed that some apps allow themselves to be splitscreened even when they do not appear in that list e.g. official twitter app.
Some apps you will find when you press the edit button, you can then drag them to the main list, or remove ones you do not use.
Samsung Apps
- ChatON
- Email
- Gallery
- Internet
- Messaging
- S-Note
- Video Player
Google Apps
- Chrome
- Gmail
- Maps
- Talk
- Youtube
Third Party Apps
- Facebook
- Official Twitter app
- Polaris (Viewer)
Note: you will need to be using Samsung stock keyboard to benefit from typing when on multi-screen mode, otherwise your keyboard will cover the entire bottom screen.
I just installed the official Twitter app and it is now in the multiscreen menu tab

weird its not showing up for me, did you login to the app? maybe its because I have not logged in?
What about S-planner and Calculator app? I would think these would be two of the most useful to use multi-screen, or at least floating over the screen like the galaxy tabs.

a '*' denotes that the app works in split screen but cannot be selected from the list, it must be activated first then another added as the second screen, therefore two apps with the '*' will not be able to be paired together.

Mine had Twitter in it from the time the multi view was installed.
I had to press edit and drag the twitter icon from there.
Splanner and calculator do not work in split screen.

Thanks for the info. Bewildering why they would leave out calculator and S-planner from split screen. Two apps that would seem to benefit most from it.
Maybe Samsung will add more apps at future firmware updates.

Anyone know if there is a multi-screen api that devs can use to make compatible apps? It would be epic to get tapatalk and Skype added to the list.

Would love to use Skype with Multi-window. A video call while being able to use the phone.Actually, imagine Skype with video pop up. That would be fairly handy.
Looking forward to the future of the Note 2.
Ohh, This splitscreen rocks
Waiting for Skype to be added in this list

If anyone gets a chance can you see if Netlix will work, possible by opening it then adding something like Facebook to the screen. Thanks in advance, I'm so excited about getting this phone.

Press and hold the back button for 2-3 seconds. If nothing happens then your firmware doesn't support multiview.

The symptom is, each time I switch on my tablet, I receive a notification in lower right corner promoting something like lucky draw, game, etc. If I click on the notification, it automatically starts downloading apk. The apk is always named like yyyymmddxxxxxxxxxxx.apk. I never run those apks, I guess they are not friendly. How can I check which app I installed is doing this?

First check what you have installed recently. Could be one of those apps give spam notifications. I saw something similar on my bro-in-law phone and that was because he installed some kind of "enhancement" program to make his phone run more efficient (it didn't help bytheway).
Also, since you didn't say what OS you're running, 4.0+ has the option to disable notifications when you go to settings>applications>app name. If you find its an app you need, then that might help.
If you thinks its beyond this, then install lookout or norton from the market.
It's not malware, they're called push notification ads. Just download "Ad Blocker" (root required) from the market and it will tell you which app(s) is doing this. You can also choose to delete it from within the app.
Pretty handy.

Try installing "Air Push Detector" from the market.
my tablet is using 4.0.4 but i cannot find the setting you mentioned. in settings-application-application name, there is no notification setting.
i tried but there is no app found. i still get notification ad.

I don't have it now, I will load it when I get it next time.
However I have the list of apps I installed because I sent it to the author of push detector. How can I send it to you? I just don't want to post it here.
I have another finding, which seems odd to me: I set the home page of chrome to be blank, and I double checked that, but each time I open the browser it always opens a search page with a lot of informations (looks like a portal but I don't like it). How can I know which app replaces my home page with such rubish?
Is it possible the 3G provider does this kind of things? (notification ads and home replacement)?

No, your network provider would have nothing to do with push notification ads or homepage replacement. And as for setting your homepage in Google chrome, are you talking about the desktop version? Because I don't believe you can make that selection on the mobile version, unless I'm missing something?
BTW, you can send that list to me in a PM if you'd like.

Try this app, it will tell you every app that has a shady ad network and you can delete it. A friend of mine had an app that was creating a ton of shortcuts all over her home screens.

In Chrome settings you can set your home page. But it seems it's the 3G provider that replaces the home page for me.
I will send you the app list. Thanks.

People, are you serius ? Have you ever used the pop-up browser ? In what way the Pen Windows can replace the pop-up browser ? IT CAN'T !!! :crying::crying:
Every Link you have, on Note 2, you can open it with pop-up browser, so it mean that if you are on hangout / facebook / whateveryouwant you can open a link in the pop-browser, so you can follow 2 things at time. Pen Windows can't open link in other app, so it can't replace the pop-up browser !

Just downloaded popup browser from the play store it's quite like the old popup browser but not for me at the moment I uninstalled it.I do not miss the old popup browser the new multitasking is better.But my old phone was a note 1 so maybe popup on 2 was better
pen windows as popup browser
On my Note 1 if I have the browser running in split mode, any link I click in the other half will be opened here. I'd think pen window would act the same.
A Note 3 owner please confirm this:
1. Create a pen window
2. minimize it
3. click on a link in facebook (or whatever app)
4. Does it activate pen window?
if it does, I think pen window will be an improvement for popup browser, which I am also a big fan of on the Note 1.

well is this what you looking for.??
My twitter feed i click on link and open chrome browser in a resizeable /switchable popup !!
( i do not know about facebook,as i don't really use it on my phone )
post edit
second screenshot i clicked on link in my gmail ..same results with blue icon options etc..!!!.
also to be clear i achieve this not by using multi window side bar, but in relevant standalone app itself,clicking on link..etc///( e.g tweetcaster ...gmail...)

It's not the same, it's a workarount !
In that way you need to use multiwindows and you need to open 2 apps and this mean that the apps with links is compatible with multiwindows. With pop-up browser it's not needed (you can also disable multiwindows) and it's more fast and usable on the go.
Click on Link => Open in pop-up browser
Easy, no multiwindows, no more steps, Nothing Else.
You are not convincted ?
Easy Diagram Steps
Note 3 with no pop-up browser
1)Open Multiwindows
2)Drag the Internet app
3)Drag the Compatible App
4)Click on the central blue point and choose the apposite tool
5)Drag and Drop the link on the Internet navigation bar
AMAZING !!! So fast, few steps and .... compatible with all apps ... Ah wait, only with multiwindows compatible app
Note 2 With pop-up browser
1) Open whatever you want app and click the link
2) Choose to open in pop-up browser
Few steps, compatibile with all apps, fastest ..... Don't think i'll use multiwindows to open link instead of a pop-up browser :laugh:
BTW I'll use the app "Browser window", but this a big missing in Note 3
The way I, and I think a lot of people, use pop-up browser is to click on a link in another app (EG: e-mail) and have the browser content display less than full-screen so the original app (EG: e-mail) doesn't lose focus so you can close the browser content and continue where you left off. The N3 does this automatically. At least mine does. This is clicking on an advert link from within an e-mail. I don't have to "open" or "split" anything to get it to behave this way; it just does.
Pen window as popup browser
I mentioned multi window only as an example. My suggestion is to have a pen window browser minimized, and then click on a link in any app.
Is it directed into the pen-window-browser or a full screen browser is started?
I don't yet have an N3 to check it on

So you get the multi-wndow browser behavior out of the box without applying any particular settings? I can't get mine to do it without first firing up the browser in a multi-window.
I've used pop up browser, Pen window is just as good

just want to post an update. In case othe rppl have the same issue.
Took me 4 hrs but I fixed mine.
Issues might be the new google play service.
Also I can't use facebook chat on PC in the fb.com or else it will break my notification for my phone.
Facebook, chrome, andriod whatever need to get their **** together.
I got that problem too snapchat + twitter i checked notification toggle and application manager no problem with them. Maybe its the app not us?
OK, so I've been using Google Messenger for ages now, and I have no idea how the Samsung messenger works. Right now, when I click a link in a text, it brings up an internal Samsung browser that opens the page. Is there any way I can disable it, and just open it in my default web browser (In this case, Firefox)?
Thanks in advance for the help.

you need to clear default data from Samsung Browser
next it will ask how to complete action (select Firefox)
:good:
Sorry, maybe I was unclear: Clicking the link isn't opening Samsung's browser itself, it's opening like an "in app" browser, which opens the web page. I then have to click "more" and select "Open in browser". I've never actually opened the Samsung browser, and it's not selected as a default for anything.

I actually hate textra. The only reason I'm using the stock app is for the RCS and the always on screen notifications. If I was going to move away from the stock app, I'd just go back to Google Messenger.
