Split View and Slide Over mode on iPad

On the iPad’s larger screen, you can get more of the desktop experience by tiling two Vivaldi windows or a Vivaldi window with another app side by side. In addition, you can open Vivaldi in Slide Over mode for a quick check of the app, while doing something else on your iPad.
