Abstract
Methods and devices for minimizing and maximizing display outputs associated with applications are provided. In a preferred embodiment, an application presented with two or more pages can be maximized to present one of the pages on multiple screens of the device. The page that has been maximized is presented as a single, continuous image. The page that is dismissed can be recalled by a user input which returns display of the application on both of the screens, such as the first page of the application on a first screen, and second page of the application on the second screen. The maximized page of the application may include a web browser page in which the user may navigate the web page on either the first and second screens, or both the first and second screens as desired.
