The lack of its own adapted Instagram variant for the iPad can be considered a social media stairwitz: Again and again manufacturers meta has had excuses over the past few years why the app for Apple tablets did not exist again. So it was said from the management that the target group was too small (although the iPad is by far the best -selling tablet) or there are simply not enough employees in the house to take care of it (Meta is by far the most successful operator in the West).
