Looking for ability to run an app in only half of the screen - eviltoast

I have a Razr flip phone that I often use folded halfway (laptop style) and watch videos on the top half while I do other things.

Certain video apps center the content across both halves of the screen and I have to activate split screen and put a random app on the bottom half of the screen.

Long story short, is there a way to split screen only 1 app to only the top half of the screen? I’ve tried to search for something but I’m coming up empty.

    I’m using Android 14 on a Pixel and gesture navigation. To get split-screen, I gesture up to open the app switcher, then long-press on the icon for the app I want to split-screen. This pulls up a menu that has an option for split-screen.

      I am able to do split screen in this way. What I am looking for is to run only 1 app but just in the top 50% of the screen.
