Few days back ars technica found a code of Android N freeform window mode ( Use Actual multiple windows at the same time like remix os ) , but the feature was not there in Android N . But now you can enable this awesome feature if you are using Android N developer preview .

You can even use freeform window in split screen too , though it will use much RAM and might lag in many devices with low RAM . May be that's the reason Google hid this feature . But you can still enable it by doing a little work .



To enable it follow Ars technica guide .

LG Nexus 5 will get Android N or Not ? Find out Here !


Seems this time Google might ditch Nexus 5 Android N update . 

Nexus 5 was announced back on October 2013 with Android 4.4.4 KitKat pre-installed and still it is update-able to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Os . 



Last year , Google confirmed that they won’t be updating the Nexus 4 to the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS. Google explained that this is due to the age of the device, which has passed its support tenure.

So This time also Google might not update Nexus 5 to Android N due to age of the device . 



Though Google might have not provided Android N developer preview images for Nexus 5 , but we can still hope for Official firmware images of Android N for Nexus 5 ( which will be released on May 18 ) .
