Instagram still hasn’t developed an iPad-friendly app, and it doesn’t seem to want to.
Instagram is one of the most popular apps in the world, but for some strange reason they deny the iPad and refuse to design an application adapted to the Apple tablet. Not long ago its CEO spoke about it, indicating that for the moment the iPad was not a priority for Instagramand has just made new statements to the same address.
The popular youtuber Marques Brownlee wrote a Tweeter this weekend indicating that we were in the year 2022 and We didn’t have an Instagram app for the iPad yet.. Instagram manager Adam Mosseri responded to the post, again trying to defend the bizarre decision.
Yes, we get this one a lot. It’s still not a large enough group of people to be a priority. Hoping to get there at some point, but right now we’re very focused on other things.

There is not yet a large enough group of people to be a priority. Hoping to get there at some point, but right now we’re really worried about other things.
Instagram still won’t launch an iPad-friendly app
In a reply, Mosseri tried to justify himself by indicating the reasons why they are not launching instagram for ipadbasically they have other plans before that:
- Each system adds overhead; we support iOS, Android, www and IG Lite, and Android is the biggest.
- TikTok and YouTube are huge, people share more posts than in Stories or Feed, so we have to adapt.
- We are smaller than you think.
I understand that a large majority of users use Instagram on the iPhone, but I also don’t think developing an app for the iPad will take too much time or money., they just have to slightly adapt the one they have for the iPhone to a larger screen. However, Instagram does not seem for work, so we will continue without an official application.
