Meta has expanded its Muse AI agent to the iPad less than a month after the service’s mobile debut. The Verge’s Andrew Liszewski reported on October 7 that the latest Muse iOS update adds native tablet support, allowing the app to use the iPad’s larger display and improved multitasking capabilities instead of behaving like an enlarged phone application.

The timing follows a rapid early rollout. Muse spent several weeks as the top free application in Apple’s App Store, according to The Verge. Meta also released a Mac version roughly a week after the original mobile launch, extending the agent into desktop work such as organizing files. The iPad edition is expected to work much like the iPhone version, although the report does not describe tablet-exclusive agent functions beyond the interface and multitasking advantages.

The update adds connections spanning design, storage, accounting, development, meetings, and project management.

The tablet support appears only as a brief line in the new release notes, but it arrives alongside a more substantial expansion of Muse’s software connections. The updated app can connect with tools including Canva, Dropbox, Figma, QuickBooks, GitHub, Zoom, Asana, and Klaviyo. It also adds connectors for Granola and Notion, widening the range of documents, projects, meetings, and business systems the agent may be able to work across.

Meta is aiming some of those additions at small-business owners. Users can give Muse a business goal, which the agent can use to plan marketing work, client pitches, and the development of new product pages. The source describes this planning as autonomous, but it does not provide performance tests or examples establishing how reliably Muse completes those workflows. The usefulness of the feature will therefore depend on the quality of its plans and the controls users have over connected data and actions.

Several device types orbit a shared abstract AI agent core.
Muse’s iPad arrival fits Meta’s wider effort to extend the agent across computers, dedicated hardware, and smart glasses.

The speed of the iPad release also offers a contrast with Meta’s earlier platform strategy. As The Verge notes, the company took 15 years to release a dedicated Instagram app for Apple’s tablet. Muse’s much faster arrival suggests that Meta is prioritizing distribution for its AI products and wants the agent available across phone, tablet, and desktop contexts while interest remains high.

That expansion is not stopping with conventional computers. Meta has announced the Muse Charm, a standalone, Tamagotchi-like device designed to run the agent without a smartphone, and it is working to bring Muse to its smart glasses. Native iPad support is a smaller step than new hardware, but it fits the same strategy: make one agent accessible across more screens, devices, and work environments, then broaden what it can do through connected services.
