In order to restrict the split-screen option in Android Studio, you can add the android:resizeableActivity attribute to the AndroidManifest.xml file for each activity that you want to restrict.

Setting the android:resizeableActivity attribute to false will prevent the activity from being displayed in split-screen mode.

Here’s an example of how to use the android:resizeableActivity attribute:


<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
    android:resizeableActivity="false"
    android:configChanges="screenSize|smallestScreenSize|screenLayout|orientation"/>

In this example, the MainActivity activity is marked as non-resizable, which means it will not be allowed to be displayed in split-screen mode.

You can use it in multiple activities.

It’s worth noting that this only works on devices running Android 7.0 (Nougat) and later. On older versions of Android, split-screen mode is not available, so this attribute will have no effect.
