Funny you should mention this, because the newsletter I get, the iPhone tip of the day, has this tip today. Here's what they say. Their web site is www.iPhoneLife.com
Tip of the Day: How to Turn Off Split Screen Feature on iPhone 6 Plus The iPhone 6 Plus with its 5.5-inch display gives you a lot more viewing space. And Apple engineered iOS 8 to take advantage of that extra space by giving the device a split-screen feature in apps such as Messages, Mail, and Calendar. In Mail, for example, when you're in landscape mode, you'll see the list of messages on the left and the text of a selected message in the space at right. However, you may prefer not to have this feature enabled, especially if you'd like to use the extra screen space to make the text larger. You can disable the spilt screen by enabling Display Zoom. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > View. Next, select Zoomed, and then tap Set. You'll see a message informing you that changing display zoom will restart your iPhone. Press Use Zoomed. Once your iPhone has restarted you should no longer see the split screen in your apps. Instead you will see one big window when you hold your 6 Plus horizontally in apps which have a special view in landscape mode, such as Mail, Messages, and Notes. Keep in mind that you will also lose other features like the landscape-oriented home screen and the extra buttons on your keyboards. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
