How can I disable the split screen in Safari in...

As a mature user, I need the entire screen so I can enlarge textwhile reading.  This split screen uses too much space for me.

I was not referring to the keyboard, but to the new split screen in Safari, etc.  I did learn how to disable it though. :-)

To the left of the search area, there is an open book icon. Tapping that icon will toggle the split screen off and on!! Too cool!!!  If it is black, the screen is back to its larger self.  If it appears in a white square, you have a split screen.  Apple thinks of everything!!  I am apple to the core since 1980s.

If the keyboard is in the middle of the screen, tap the tiny keyboard then slide your finger up to dock and merge.

I'm glad you got it figured out. Have you seen the new iPad User Guide for IOS 8 yet ? If not tap the link below.

Thank you so much! I was unable to figure this out on my own, had gotten so frustrated with Safari as a result that I actually downloaded the Chrome app!
Now if I can just get the same thing to work in the mail app I will be happy.

...and, it turns out it's even easier in mail, it's just the regular "expand" icon rather than the slightly less intuitive book icon. So: HAPPINESS!

This was driving me nuts! Thanks for posting. Worked as advertised.

WWhere is the book icon?  I don't see one anywhere on my screen...

Hi. I think they're referring to the bookmarks symbol in Safari. Control of Safari split view is changed under iOS 10. Now you tap and hold the multipage icon (two overlapping boxes) to turn off Safari Split View.

This is good information if I ever run across it, however, holding on the multipage icon on mine simply gives me the option of opening more tabs or closing all my tabs.  What is the split screen and how do you turn it on in case I ever wanted to use it?

Hi. Only the newer model iPads have it. If you don't have normal Split View, you don't have it in Safari either. It requires an Air 2 or Pro, I believe.

I have the iPad Air 2, that is why I was wondering, I'm not seeing it and it could be useful if it is what I think they are saying.

Do you have iOS 10? It allows Safari to display two tabs side-by-side. I believe you hold the multipage button to open the second window.

Yes, I have Version 10.1.1 (14B100), and I can't seem to find it at all on there.  I have looked online to see how it is done and everything that they have said to get it to do it does not work either.  Weird...

Here's what the User Guide has to say about Safari split screen.

“View two pages side-by-side. Turn iPad to landscape orientation, then do one of the following:”

“Open a link in Split View: Touch and hold the link, then tap Open in Split View.

Open a blank page in Split View: Touch and hold (the two squares) , then tap Open Split View.

Open a link on the other side of Split View: Tap with two fingers on the link.

Move a tab to the other side of Split View: Drag the tab left or right from the tab bar.

Merge or close all tabs: Touch and hold (the two squares) again.”
