'''Multitasking''' is a feature that appears throughout [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'']] series, although it was first heavily developed and expanded in ''[[The Sims 4]]'', of which it was one of the advertised new features along with [[emotions]] and the [[gallery]].
 
Multitasking [[Sim]]s can perform two or more tasks simultaneously. Examples range from simple things such as resting on a bed while reading a [[book]] or having a [[conversation]] while dining, up to complex piled-up [[interaction]]s such as running on a [[treadmill]], talking with another Sim and watching [[television]] all at once. This usually gives the advantage of satisfying multiple [[motive]]s simultaneously.
 
== Interactions ==
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', Sims that are relaxing on a [[bed]] can be instructed to read a [[book]] or simply daydream. In [[The Sims 2 (console)|''The Sims 2'' for console]], Sims sitting on a [[toilet]] can be directed to play a video game on a handheld device or read a magazine. They may also autonomously pull out a [[newspaper]] and read it, fulfilling both the [[fun]] and [[bladder]] needs.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]'', Sims can use a handheld phone while on a chair, sofa or couch. They can even use it while on a toilet.{{vgversion|TS4}}
 
In ''The Sims 4'', SimSims can talk to another Sim while preparing a meal, moonlighting onat a bar, sitting on furniture or the edge of a pool, running on a treadmill, and when using a computer.
