I have Samsung Galaxy Tab Active2 with Android 9 Pie. When running two apps simultaneously in the multi-window mode, it frequently happens that the multi-window display gets suddenly disabled with the following notification: "Multi-window closed. Your tablet is too hot. Let it cool before using Multi window again". The options to display an app in a multi-window or pop-up views then disappear from the task manager menu, and the Multi-window option also gets greyed-out in the Settings. This is really annoying as I need to have two apps running side by side for my work. I searched the web but was unable to find any posts mentioning this behavior at all (so I suspect this may not be a general feature of Android but some specific set-up of Samsung...). Would anyone know how to disable/override this feature, please? I know that overheating can be dangerous to the hardware, but this way of handling it is very problematic for me.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'd say to try running it on power saving mode while multitasking. Or just limit the cpu in some way if that's possible without compromising your work.

  • I field-tested limiting the CPU speed by turning on the power saver, and it seems to work — the multi window does not shut down even in hot environment. Limited CPU usage might undermine the correct functionality of some apps, but that is another problem...
