Galaxy Z Fold 8: Best 3-App Multitasking Setups

Quick summary: The Galaxy Z Fold 8 can run three vertical windows at once. Here’s how to set it up and save it, plus the three-app setups I keep in a folder on my home screen.

How to run three apps

There are several ways. Here’s one of the easiest:

1. Open an app and tap the handle at the top middle to go to dual apps, then pick a second app.
2. Swipe up slightly to show the taskbar and drag a third app into place.
3. Tap the three dots on either side, tap the star, and add the trio to your home screen, taskbar or edge panel. I keep all of mine in one folder.

My setups

1. Rideshare comparison: Google Maps (or Waze), Uber and Lyft. Check your route and compare prices, like when you land at an airport.
2. Food delivery: three delivery apps side by side to compare prices for the same restaurant.
3. Social video overload: Instagram, TikTok and X. Maybe overkill, but fun.
4. Tech shopping: Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart to compare a specific TV or gadget.
5. Sports: a sports list on X, a game streaming in the middle, and ESPN for scores. Great for fantasy football Sundays.
6. Messaging: WhatsApp, Viber and Google Messages, or swap in Discord, so you don’t have to switch apps.
7. Investing: two brokerage apps plus TradingView for the markets.
8. Smart home and security: security cameras, Google Home and Govee lights, or three camera apps.
9. Road trip: Google Maps or Waze, Spotify, and iExit, a free app I just discovered that shows what’s at each upcoming highway exit: fuel, food, attractions, pharmacies, parks and more.
10. Content creator: YouTube Studio, TikTok Studio and Instagram to check analytics.
11. Mail and messages: Yahoo Mail, Gmail and Google Messages as a communications hub.
