👀 Instagram is finally working on an iPad app after 15 years

- Instagram is reportedly developing a dedicated iPad app after nearly 15 years, according to an Instagram employee who spoke to The Information, despite previous statements from head Adam Mosseri citing lack of staff and user demand.
- The timing of Instagram's iPad app development may be related to TikTok's uncertain future in the U.S., as Meta would want to promote alternatives on as many devices as possible if TikTok faces a ban.
- Currently, iPad users can only access a scaled-up iPhone version of Instagram with large black borders, similar to Snapchat which recently released its own iPad app after a 13-year wait.

- Leavitt claimed America has the necessary workforce and resources for iPhone production, citing Apple's $500 billion investment commitment in the US as evidence, though this investment doesn't specifically include iPhone assembly plans.
- Apple has been building up iPhone inventory in the United States to temporarily buffer against tariff impacts and avoid immediate price increases, while some experts consider US-manufactured iPhones unrealistic.
