Today, it's amazing to know that some users of Instagram, the fifth most downloaded program in 2019, they will not be able to use the digital platform if they intend to do it with the iPad. The ease of downloading an app from a smartphone is obvious, much like when you try to do it on an Android tablet. However, the chances of having Instagram on the iPad are minimal.
Almost 10 years have passed since the launch of Instagram on October 6, 2010, but it seems like all this time is not enough for the development of the iPad application. No. it is not about being careless, it's about being late, or at least that is what its CEO, Adam Mosseri described when asked about this mystery.
Why is there an Instagram app for Android tablets but not an iPad
When you install Google Play from your Android tablet and look at Instagram, you'll make sure the app is available for free download at any time. However, the situation changes dramatically when you open the App Store from your iPad and look for the same app. Error! That functionality is not, and is not expected to be.
But why were app users so popular as the iPad using one of the most popular apps of the time? After years of ignorance, someone asked this question to him Adam Mosseri, Instagram manager, while doing a Q&A on social media.
According to journalist Chris Welch, who stole the manager's response and described it on Twitter, Instagram staff has a lot of things to do too The development of the iPad app has never been included as a baseline issue how to deal In short, Instagram has some very important projects to focus on in the near future.
He also said Instagram "would like to build an iPad app."
"But we have a lot of people, and we have a lot to do, and it's not as exciting as the next best thing to do right now.
The iPad is 10 years old. Maybe when it comes to 20 years?

Judging by these statements, we understand that developing an Android tablet app has been a priority over the past few years so users of these devices can use it at this time. If you are an iPad owner and an Instagram follower, do not give up, because Mosseri has also confirmed that Instagram would like to create an iPad app.
Checking out Instagram stories in recent months, we confirm that There are several projects in which the company operates: Video editing tool that reminds you of TikTok, the disappearance of the worldwide "popularity" number or feature that adds realism to your online store.
Ultimately, Instagram is constantly working to incorporate new changes that improve its users' experience. However, this doesn't seem logical enough set aside everyone who wants to use the social network from the iPad. To highlight something positive, it at least seems to be that its CEO has a vision for improving the app, even if it isn't there soon.
