Samsung has now unveiled a new firmware upgrade for the Galaxy Note II that will bring the multiscreen feature to the device.
The multi-view improves the multitasking capabilities of the Galaxy Note II, permitting users to run two apps on the screen at the same time. This feature splits the display between two devices so that two applications can be showcased on the same screen, improving the multitasking in real time. The feature debuted with the Galaxy Note 10.1 which was unveiled earlier this year.
But this multi-view feature only supports a limited number of applications. For instance, the feature on the Note 10.1 only supports Samsung apps. Although this update for the Galaxy Note II carries multi view support for Google apps as well such as  Gmail, YouTube, Chrome and Google Talk to be used along with the list of Samsung apps which already have support for the feature.
The update has been rolled out worldwide and will be made available region wise but yet there has been no timeline disclosed as to where the update will be made available and when. Users can check their devices for the upgrade manually by accessing the settings menu followed by "About device" -> "Software update".
