SplitView — Split Screen & Side by Side Tabs for Multi Window Browsing
v1.0.3 Updated Mar 11, 2026 11.42KiB
✅Recently updated
Description
Split screen browser extension that tiles your windows side by side — one click, any layout. SplitView is the fastest way to split your browser tabs into multi-window arrangements for research, comparison, and multitasking.
Unlike split screen extensions that use iframes (which fail on most websites due to security restrictions), SplitView uses real browser windows. Every website works. Every web app works. No exceptions.
6 SPLIT SCREEN LAYOUTS
- Equal split (50/50) — compare pages, research side by side
- Focus split (70/30) — main content with a narrow reference panel
- Sidebar split (30/70) — quick reference alongside your primary work
- Triple split (33/33/33) — three browser windows at once
- Vertical stack (top/bottom) — split screen horizontally for wide monitors
- Grid (2x2) — four windows in perfect quadrants
HOW TO SPLIT YOUR SCREEN
Click the SplitView icon in your toolbar, pick a layout. Done. Your current tab stays in place, new windows open in the remaining positions. No configuration, no setup screens, no tutorials.
KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS FOR SPLIT SCREEN
Alt+S — Split tabs using your last chosen layout
Alt+Z — Undo split (restores windows to previous size and position)
Customize shortcuts for every layout at chrome://extensions/shortcuts
WHY SPLITVIEW
- Seamless tiling — windows snap together with zero visible gaps (automatic shadow border compensation on Windows 10/11)
- Multi-monitor support — auto-detects which display you're on, splits stay on your current monitor
- Right-click any link — "Open link in split view" for instant side-by-side comparison
- Right-click any page — "Split this tab" from the context menu
- Instant undo — one click restores all windows to their previous state
- Dark mode — automatically adapts to your system theme
- Works with every website — uses real browser windows, not iframes
- Lightweight — under 8 KB, no bloat
PRIVACY
SplitView collects zero data. No analytics, no tracking, no network requests. No browsing history access. The extension requires only the minimum permissions needed for window management. Your browsing activity is never accessed or stored.
