Windows 11’s Notepad “Create a table” feature is now available, along with AI streaming results

Microsoft has launched the "Create a table" feature for Notepad, initially tested with Windows Insiders in November 2025, now available to all Windows 11 users. This feature allows users to create tables using Markdown-style formatting, storing them as plain text in .txt files. Users can add rows or columns easily, and a grid picker is available for selecting the number of rows and columns. The feature includes options for formatting text within table cells and managing tables through right-click controls.

Android 16 Makes Split Screen Easier on Smaller Screens

The introduction of App Pairs in Android 15 allowed users to select two applications for split-screen usage and add a shortcut to the home screen. However, users with smaller devices faced challenges with the 50:50 split-screen ratio. Android 16 improved this by offering flexible split-screen ratios like 70:30 and 90:10, enhancing the multitasking experience. Users can set up a pairing of applications, such as Chrome and Gemini, with one app occupying 90% of the screen. To create an App Pair, users open the desired applications, access the multitasking view, select the split-screen option, and adjust the ratio by dragging the handle. After setting the preferred view, users can save the app pair for easy access, with the system remembering the last used split-screen ratio.
