The post mentioned they have received several requests from fans about the feature. Here is what the team said, “We’ve gotten several requests to add the stunningly intuitive Open Canvas to the OnePlus Pad, and good news – we’re working on it! Keep your eyes peeled.”

Open Canvas is currently a OnePlus Open exclusive feature that elevates the multitasking experience. It allows users to run up to three apps in a split-screen mode that goes beyond the display. It means instead of squeezing everything into a single display space, it lets users move from one app to another with a simple tap. These apps can be used in either full-screen or compact mode. Here is a picture representation of the feature that should help you understand it better.

The OnePlus Open has a 7.82-inch internal display on which the Open Canvas feature works. Since the OnePlus Pad has an even bigger 11.61-inch display, it makes sense for the company to expand the feature to the tablet. It will improve productivity for users with the tablet even more. The team has not shared a release timeline but we will keep you posted.
