Instagram is Working on an iPad App

I can't think of a single addition to Instagram I've appreciated in the last 15 years, but I sure as hell have wanted an iPad version - to SEE THE PICTURES.
I just take my Studio Display and Pro XDR grocery shopping with me. It saves me worrying about an iPad app. I also bring Justin Long along so he can extol the virtues of Windows. It's kind of like white noise.
5 years ago I wanted this! Now I abandoned social media. You should do the same 
What would people want an Instagram on iPad for? Curious as I’m not a content creator. Are there publishing options people need?
And just like the rumored and most likely WhatsApp app on iPad both of them for iPad will require iPadOS 15 or later, especially since OS 15 and above you will get app support for years including Instagram for the base OS 15 and WhatsApp next month will stop supporting iOS 12 with iOS 15.1 being the minimum 😊
Another reason alone to the many reasons why the budget friendly iPad Mini 4 is far better than the iPad Air 1 price, quality of iPad/screen quality and portability wise. Instagram and WhatsApp will change the iPad as we know it

what they should do is expand the web access(desktop web browser) to allow more features as sometimes it's hard to manage things vs the mobile version.
People begged them for years and they refused. Now that they are irrelevant and TikTok has taken over, they’re trying to gain ground now…
Haha nice reference. The point being for online shopping and ordering- not for in store use.
Insta what? The new TikTok? Is that on iPad? Mine runs Netflix and Amazon. Nothing else really needed on an iPad (whatever streaming you choose).
I seriously cannot stand Facebook’s propensity for such dull names to their knock-off apps. An app for short-form videos? Let’s call it Shorts, an app for editing videos? Let’s call it Edits. An app for text discussion threads? Let’s call it Threads. Apps from other companies create a cultural revolution for better anns for worse, then Facebook comes along with a dull literally named rip off.
I’ll be scrolling Instagram and I see posts from two days ago, three days ago, six days ago. On a good day, I don’t like seeing stale posts, but when I see my musician friends’ posts advertising an upcoming gig and I get excited only to find out it was posted seven days ago and happened three days ago, I get annoyed.
Hahaha, what a joke. Instagram is at least running on an ipad or in safari, WhatsApp on the other hand… they are screwing with people on purpose. I wish i wouldnt have to use their terrible services but where i live you cant even get a doctors appointment without WhatsApp… I really dont get why Meta wants to be such a hated company.
will not use Instagram, the app is useless, if it works for you then have fun, it's not for me, do not trust Meta with my info. I use Tik Tok and inspaze.
