## Description

Split Browser Trial is a powerful multitasking Chrome extension that allows users to browse two web pages simultaneously, side by side. Ideal for tablets and phablets, it supports opening links across halves, resizing browser panes, and managing multiple tabs seamlessly. Users can take notes with an integrated notepad, copy text between panes, and enjoy enhanced productivity by comparing pages or watching videos while working.

A standout feature is its ability to cast videos directly to Chromecast and Nexus Player, enabling full-screen playback on larger displays. The extension supports swipe and multitasking gestures, offers tools like calculator and translators, keeps browsing history organized, and ensures smooth navigation with autocomplete and clipboard management. Compatible with Samsung’s multi-window, it provides an ad-free trial with practical limits, encouraging users to upgrade for extended use. This extension is perfect for anyone seeking to enhance their browsing experience with multitasking and casting capabilities.

## Review summary

Split Browser Trial is praised for its speed, smooth performance, and dual browsing capability, especially on older devices. It supports flash player and boasts responsive customer support. However, users consistently report the trial period is too short, lack of adblocker, no Chromecast support, and problematic video playback controls. While some users find it valuable for multitasking, the inability to fully test features in trial mode and missing video casting features are common drawbacks.

### Pros

- Fast and small app, works smoothly even on older devices like Samsung Note4.
- Allows dual browsing, useful for multitasking like checking email while browsing.
- Good customer support responding quickly to user feedback and implementing updates.
- Includes flash player support, useful for media content that requires it.

### Cons

- Lack of adblocker feature affects user experience due to ads.
- Trial period is very short (around 5-10 minutes), making it hard to fully test the app before purchase.
- No support for Chromecast casting, a frequent request that is currently unmet.
- Issues with video playback such as videos continuing to play even after exiting, back button not working properly on video tabs, and fullscreen issues.
