Meta launched a dedicated WhatsApp app for Apple iPads last week, providing users with all the latest features. Now, the company is working on developing an Instagram app for iPads.
As of now, the company is testing the app, and it may launch later this year, reports Hindustan Times.
The Instagram and WhatsApp apps for iPad have been a constant request from iPad users. Now, after years of providing support to Android and iOS, the popular social media app is finally coming to iPadOS.
This move would be welcomed by many, since users rely on iPads for their visual content editing and posting. An iPad version will make things easy for content creators and influencers to directly post content on the Instagram app.
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Meta is developing the Instagram app for iPad, and it may launch by this year “if all goes to plan”.
Reportedly, the iPadOS version of Instagram is currently being tested by Meta employees. Previously, it has been suggested that Meta has faced several challenges in developing an Instagram app, such as app optimisation, layout, images, and other interface-related issues for a bigger screen.
Now, they see have overcome these critical issues, and are now actively testing for the Instagram app launch this year.
