The Instagram app debuted in the App Store in October 2010 \u2013 the social media service is still very popular today. But there is still no iPad app. Instagram boss Adam Mosseri explains why this is the case on Twitter<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many iPhone users have been wanting a native Instagram app for the iPad for years. But the Facebook subsidiary has not yet released a suitable tablet version of the popular application. Now Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri has explained the reason. Mosseri was asked on Twitter why there is still no iPad application available. He was surprisingly open and explained:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would love to develop an iPad app but we don't have enough people and so much to do. Besides that, there are more interesting tasks at the moment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

"Direct messages are important"<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

According to this, Instagram seems to be working on more lucrative projects than an iPad app. The fact that Instagram has a small team is nothing new \u2013 but the openness is a bit surprising. But one user would not let up and asked Mosseri why the company had the feature direct messages on the web<\/a> an iPad app. The Instagram boss explained that "direct messages are important" so that users can connect with each other on the web. At the same time, the answer should not be seen as a rejection. This means that there is still a chance of getting Instagram on the iPad, but when that will happen is anyone's guess. (Photo by zurijeta \/ Bigstockphoto)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
