Claude Mobile Rolls Out Side-by-Side View, Multi-Account Support and 24 New Languages

On October 30, Anthropic's official account (@claudeai) and tech outlet @testingcatalog revealed a batch of UX updates to the Claude mobile app, covering split-pane views, multi-account login, and language expansion.

Confirmed

In the Duo feature on iPad and iPhone, content generated by Claude now opens side-by-side with the chat instead of covering it, and can be expanded to full screen when needed
The iOS and Android apps add multi-account support: multiple accounts can stay signed in simultaneously and switch without logging out
The Android experience is now close to the desktop notebook app, with Chromebooks and foldables also getting a similar dual-pane experience
The update adds 24 new interface languages
The official account asked users what to update next; some requested personal finance features

Why it matters

The split-pane view fixes the pain point of generated content covering the chat, letting users review results while conversing—especially improving productivity on large screens like iPad and foldables
Multi-account switching makes life easier for users juggling personal and work accounts, reducing account management overhead
Expanding to 24 interface languages signals Claude's push toward localization for a broader international user base. User @JoshKale shared a positive review praising the quick multi-account switching, along with a demo video, showing the updates are already getting real-world positive feedback
