Instagram App Finally Appears on iPads, After 15 Years of Neglecting Apple’s Tablet

You no longer have to use the strange-looking iPhone version of the social media app on your tablet.

Following earlier rumors in 2025, iPad users finally saw a dedicated Instagram app arrive on their devices on Wednesday. Since the iPad’s original release 15 years ago, Instagram had never been available in the App Store as a download for Apple’s tablet. Instead, users had been stuck with the mobile version, which awkwardly failed to stretch to the iPad’s larger screen size.

It’s not clear why Instagram took so long to appear on the iPad. (We’re baffled by it just as much as you are.)

We’ve tested out the app and found it ready to download and fully functional. A big plus is that it takes up the full screen. However, Instagram has made a few changes, so you’ll have a slightly different experience than on your phone or computer.

What’s new with the Instagram iPad app?

When first logging on to Instagram on the iPad, we found a notable difference. Instead of the typical Instagram home screen, the app takes you directly to Reels to start scanning the latest videos. The experience ends up looking similar to scroll-happy TikTok, which seems intentional (and could indicate future changes for the other versions of the app).

It’s nice for those who like checking out all the Reels, but somewhat cumbersome for those who prefer to focus on standard Instagram posts instead.

The new iPad app also includes a new section called Following, which takes you to classic Instagram posts with a long-requested twist. Following posts are divided into All, Friends only or Latest, giving you different options for your feed.

Other Instagram features on the dedicated iPad app appear more or less identical to existing versions, but we’ll keep you updated if we see any other differences. For now, social scrollers who want a bigger screen to enjoy their Insta pics and Reels have a significant upgrade to explore.

Meta didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences. Millions of people travel abroad, explore new countries, plan adventures, and try to stay connected with family, work, and social media. And in the middle of all this comes a familiar question: how do you stay online without expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards?

The answer is already here — eSIM.

Why eSIM Is So Convenient

eSIM (embedded SIM) is a built-in digital SIM card that lets you activate mobile internet without a physical card. All you need is an app — choose a plan and connect in just a couple of minutes.

No more:

* searching for local SIM cards at airports
* paying expensive roaming fees
* swapping physical SIMs every time you travel

Now your internet travels with you.

All of these services work on the same principle — fast, borderless internet without roaming stress.

Why It Matters Most in Summer

During the holiday season, roaming networks get overloaded, and prices for mobile data abroad often become an unpleasant surprise for travelers.

eSIM solves this problem:

* transparent, fixed pricing
* activation in 1–2 minutes
* stable internet while traveling
* no physical SIM cards required
