After more than a decade, Snapchat is now fully supported on the iPad.
Thirteen years after launching on the iPhone, Snapchat has finally brought its app to the iPad. In an update note on Monday, Snapchat announced that it now offers native support for the iPad, allowing the app to fill your entire screen for the first time.
Until now, iPad users were stuck using the iOS version of the app, leaving them with unsightly black borders surrounding an iPhone-sized Snapchat interface. This made it less than ideal to view or take snaps on the app, as well as try on filters.

Of course, this shouldn’t be an excuse to start slinging your iPad around in public to send pictures to your friends. Snapchat is available with iPadOS 13.0 or later. It also currently only supports portrait mode, which means it won’t rotate when you tilt your device.
Even if the app came a decade late, at least Snapchat actually launched an app for the iPad. Now, all we need is Instagram to do the same.
