Instagram iPad App Finally In The Works To Rival TikTok

Instagram may soon launch iPad app, getting ready to compete with TikTok

Instagram is finally making a special app for iPad users. After ignoring them for years, the company is now planning something new. Meta wants to make Instagram better than TikTok, and this iPad app is part of that plan.

Users had to manage with iPhone version on iPad

People have been asking for an iPad version for a long time. Till now, they were using the iPhone app on iPad, which runs only in portrait mode and does not use the full screen. This gave a poor experience, especially for professionals.

Web version still not good enough

The web version of Instagram is slightly better, but still not made for iPad properly. As Apple is promoting iPad as a laptop replacement, not having a proper app felt like a big missing part.

Meta changes its mind after years

Now it looks like Instagram or Meta has finally changed its decision. But the company has not shared the launch date of the iPad app yet.

Earlier, CEO said iPad app not needed

Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri had said earlier that there was not enough demand for an iPad app. Before that, he said there were not enough team members, so they didn’t focus on it.

TikTok’s problems give Instagram a chance

As TikTok is facing pressure in the US due to its connection with China, Instagram is trying to improve its own features. This includes building the iPad app to attract more users and creators.

Instagram also wants to improve search feature

Adam Mosseri also said Instagram’s search can be better. Meta is now working to help users find posts more easily and give creators better reach over time.

iPad app may help creators and managers

The new iPad app can give a better experience to creators and social media managers. It may also help Instagram grow while TikTok faces problems.
