Foldables are going to miss out on this major Android 16 multitasking feature
TL;DR Foldables like the Pixel 9 Pro Fold won't support on-device windowing in Android 16. Only tablets will have the option of floating app windows, while phones with Desktop Mode will need an external display. Desktop Mode support is optional for OEMs building phones and foldables. If you were still hoping that Android 16 might finally let you run apps in floating windows on your foldable, you might want to temper those expectations. Despite the larger screens on foldables like the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Android 16 won't support on-device windowing for them. That clarification comes from a Google response to Ars Technica, confirming that phones and foldables won't be able to multitask with freeform app windows on their screens. Instead, they'll only be able to use Android's new desktop-style interface when connected to an external display like a monitor or TV. The only devices getting windowing on their built-in screens for now are tablets. Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority Even the external-display windowing feature won't be guaranteed across the board on larger handsets. Google says it'll be up to individual manufacturers whether or not their phones support Desktop Mode at all. So while Pixel devices will support windowing on external screens, others might stick to basic display mirroring with no added functionality. The rest of Android 16 still strongly advocates for better large-screen support. Apps targeting the update will mostly be resizable by default on bigger displays, which should help make better use of space on tablets and foldables alike. It's becoming mandatory, but developers can temporarily opt out until Android 17, and games are currently exempt. Whatever the consumer demand for on-device windowing, it seems like only a matter of time before it happens. This is just a small reality check for anyone who might have been expecting foldables to become mini desktops overnight. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

These documents are available at NON-IFRS AND OTHER FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES D-BOX uses the following non-IFRS financial performance measures in its MD&A and other communications. The non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Investors are cautioned that the disclosure of these metrics is meant to add to, and not to replace, the discussion of financial results determined in accordance with IFRS. Management uses both IFRS and non-IFRS measures when planning, monitoring and evaluating the Company's performance. The non-IFRS performance measures are described as follows: Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA represents earnings before interest and financing, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjustments to EBITDA are for items that are not necessarily reflective of the Company's underlying operating performance. As there is no generally accepted method of calculating EBITDA, this measure is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other issuers. Adjusted EBITDA provides useful and complementary information, which can be used, in particular, to assess profitability and cash flow from operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. A reconciliation of net profit to Adjusted EBITDA margin is in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis dated June 10, 2025. Total Debt, Net Debt and Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Total debt is defined as the total bank indebtedness, long-term debt (including any current portion), and net debt is calculated as total debt net of cash and cash equivalents. The Company considers total debt and net debt to be important indicators for management and investors to assess the financial position and liquidity of the Company and measure its financial leverage. These measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Total debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated as total net debt divided by the last four quarters Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that total debt to Adjusted EBITDA is a useful metric to assess the Company's ability to manage debt and liquidity. Supplementary Financial Measures Gross margin is defined as gross profit divided by total revenues. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales are defined as operating expenses divided by total revenues. Operating margin is defined as operating income divided by net sales.
