Move over Open Canvas, this could be the best way to multitask on a foldable
TL;DR vivo's upcoming X Fold 5 features a new multitasking system called 'Atomic Workbench' capable of running up to five active apps simultaneously. 'Atomic Workbench' enables one dominant app view while keeping others minimized but live, improving upon OnePlus' Open Canvas approach with a better layout for engaging more apps. The vivo X Fold 5 launches on June 25 in China. OnePlus pioneered the Open Canvas feature with the OnePlus Open foldable, allowing users to open three apps simultaneously on their foldable's inner display. This approach stood out as one of the best ways to multitask on Android foldables and tablets, as it opened up two apps side by side, with the third app tucked away but ready to be in focus at any moment. Now, vivo's upcoming X Fold 5 foldable threatens to usurp OnePlus' multitasking crown with its 'Atomic Workbench' feature. vivo's product manager Han Boxiao has shared a demo of the X Fold 5's multitasking system, called '原子工作台,' which translates into 'Atomic Workbench.' The demo video shows that the Honor of Kings game occupies most of the screen real estate, but not all of it. There's empty space on the sides, but more notably, we see four apps hanging out in the top ~30% of the screen. Tapping open any of these apps brings them into focus in a similar layout. However, apps like DeepSeek and WPS Spreadsheet push the multitasking pane to the left side (probably because they open in portrait orientation). We also spot a drag handle on the bottom right corner, albeit the demo doesn't showcase its use. This multitasking solution is genius because it allows one app to dominate the display, while still giving you a good peek at what the other apps are up to. The cherry on top is that all five apps continue running actively, even when out of focus. For all practical purposes, the apps still very much consider themselves in focus. We can see Honor of Kings continues to proceed with the gameplay, and DeepSeek keeps answering the query even when the user has switched away. Essentially, vivo has improved upon OnePlus' Open Canvas experience by focusing more on one app while keeping the rest open in smaller, switchable windows. The layout is also an improvement from Android's conventional multi-window experience, which recently adopted the 90:10 multitasking split after being inspired by Open Canvas on candybar phones. However, I can't help but notice the similarities with iPadOS' Stage Manager, which focuses on app groups, while vivo's multitasking implementation appears to focus on individual apps. It remains to be seen how easy it is to activate this multitasking layout, if it can run with fewer than five apps, and if users can resize or reposition the layout. The vivo X Fold 5 is set to launch on June 25 in China. It's unclear if the foldable will launch in international markets, but we would love to see the 'Atomic Workbench' multitasking feature reach more phones and tablets. Other notable features on the foldable include claimed Apple Watch compatibility (!!!), IP5X, IPX8, and IPX9 ratings for improved durability, and an impressively thin and light frame for a foldable.

Paris Jackson claps back at critics for concert on dad Michael's death anniversary
Singer-actor Paris Jackson has reacted to critics of her decision to perform a concert on the anniversary of her father Michael Jackson's death, reported Deadline. June 25 marks the 16th anniversary of the day the pop superstar died in Los Angeles, and his supporters have slammed his daughter's upcoming concert in Bridgestone, Nashville, on that date. Page Six reports that Jackson, who will be supporting the band Incubus on their Morning View + The Hits tour in the US and UK, took to Instagram Stories to question why people were "mad again" about her tour date, and explain she had no say in the scheduling. "One of the tour dates I'm supposed to be going out on tour with Incubus and Manchester Orchestra happens to be June 25, which is a very negative anniversary for me in my life and my family, reported Deadline. "So, what I guess I have to explain to these people is that when you're first of three, and you're not headlining these shows, you don't pick what date you perform or what time you go on stage to perform, or what city you perform in." "First of three also doesn't get a tour bus. You get maybe a sprinter van, which I've done before when I've got a band with me. But I'm not going to have my band with me this time." "It's just me and my acoustic guitar and my sound guy, who happens to be my fiancé (musician Justin Long.) So we're gonna be in a soccer mum van." "This feels like [Incubus is] doing me a favour by bringing me out on tour," added Paris Jackson in her video. "So [what], I'm gonna tell 'em, 'Sorry, guys, we can't perform on this date?' and signed off from her critics...." Michael Jackson died on June 25th 2009 after suffering a heart attack caused by an illegal substance overdose. His attending doctor Conrad Murray was later jailed for involuntary manslaughter, for administering an overdose of the substance to his patient. Jackson left three children, his only daughter Paris and her brothers Michael "Prince" Jackson and Prince "Bigi" Jackson, reported Deadline.

Paris Jackson Gets Real About Performing On Dad Michael Jackson's Death Anniversary
is setting the record straight for those criticizing her latest tour schedule. The 27-year-old daughter of the late took to Instagram Stories on June 13 to address backlash she's received for performing on June 25, which is the anniversary of her father's death. The date has long held emotional significance for Paris Jackson and her family, marking the day in 2009 when the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, passed away. The model, singer, and actress expressed frustration that she even needed to defend herself, noting that as a supporting act, she has no control over when she's scheduled to perform. 'So people are mad again,' Paris began in the candid video shared on her Instagram Stories. 'This time, I think, I guess one of the tour dates I'm supposed to be going out on tour with Incubus and Manchester Orchestra happens to be June 25, which is a very negative anniversary for me in my life and my family.' 'What I guess I have to explain to these people is that when you're not headlining these shows, you don't pick what date you perform,' she explained. Paris, who has often spoken openly about grief, family, and the public scrutiny that comes with her last name, has faced criticism before when it comes to how she chooses to honor, or not publicly honor, her father. She's been vocal about carving out her own identity, career, and boundaries, despite constant comparisons and expectations. Ahead of her 2023 tour alongside Incubus and Manchester Orchestra, Paris appeared to focus on her art and her healing, regardless of what critics had to say. On what would have been the King of Pop's 65th birthday, Paris took to Instagram to share a personal message, both reflecting on her father's true feelings about his birthday and addressing the intense scrutiny she often faces from fans. 'So today is my dad's birthday and back when he was alive, he used to hate anybody acknowledging his birthday,' Paris said in a video post at the time. 'He actually didn't want us to even know when his birthday was because he didn't want us to throw a party or anything like that.' The model, singer, and actress also expressed her frustration with people who attack her online for not publicly posting a birthday tribute. 'People have told me to kill myself, and they're basically measuring my love for my own father based off of what I post on Instagram,' she said. She added a powerful caption to the video. "Please don't use a man you have never met as an excuse to abuse, manipulate, and harass his daughter (who you also have never met)." Despite the criticism, Paris did honor her father in her own way, through music. While touring with Incubus, she shared a video of herself onstage paying tribute to Michael at a concert on the same day. 'He would have been 65 years old today and he put 50 years of blood, sweat and tears and love and passion into doing what he did, so I could stand up here on stage, in front of you, and scream into a microphone,' she told the crowd. 'So I owe everything to him.' Paris also offered fans a meaningful suggestion for how they can honor Michael Jackson's legacy by giving back to the causes he cared deeply about. 'If you are an MJ superfan, and you want to do something that he would have loved, which is not celebrate his birthday, my suggestion would be: there's always ways to get involved with raising awareness for climate change, doing stuff for the environment, animal rights activism,' she said. 'These were things that he loved and he was very, very interested in.' Born on April 3, 1998, Paris is Michael's only surviving biological child. His elder son, Prince Jackson, who was born via surrogacy, also survives him, while Prince's twin sister, Paris-Michael Katherine, passed away a few days after birth.
