 To switch between all apps (desktop and Windows Store apps), hold down the Alt key and press the Tab

key repeatedly to switch between apps. When you get to the app you want, just let go.

Use two apps side by side (snap apps)

Keep an eye on your music playlist while you work on a report.

Compare your favorite team's schedule with your own calendar.

You can get more done when you snap a second app to the left or

right side of your screen.

Snapping apps

Snap the last app you were using

 With touch, slide your finger in from the left edge to bring in the second app, and then drag that app to

the left or right side of the screen until an opening appears behind it.

 With a mouse, move your pointer into the upper-left corner until the second app appears, and then drag

that app to the left or right side of the screen until an opening appears behind it.

Snap an app you used recently

Swipe in from the left edge without lifting your finger, and then push back toward the left edge. You'll see the

apps you recently used. Now, drag the app you want to the left or right side of the screen until an opening

appears behind it.

Tips

 Want to see how it’s done? Watch the Snap an app video on Windows.com.

 Press the Windows logo key + Period to snap the current app to the edge of the screen. Then swipe in

from the left edge of the screen to bring in another open app.

 To adjust the size of the apps, move the line between the apps. One app can take a third of the screen

and the other can take two thirds.

Close apps

Apps from the Windows Store don’t slow down Surface, so you don’t need to close them. When you switch to

another app, Windows leaves the app running in the background and will close it eventually if you don’t use it.
