why is there no visualizer with itunes on ipad or an app?
iTunes on the iPad where you buy music, videos, televsion shows and movies. Do you mean in the Music app on the iPad? Apple hasn't included one an the haven't said why. Submit your feedback requesting this feature directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:
It deffinatly has the GPU power to do it.
because the iTunes app is there for purchases only. The music section is there to play music, not to be give you something to stare at. Most people are doing other things while they play music. Plus, visualizers would kill the battery life of your iPad.
I am an iPad user that would definitely like an IOS visualizer feature on ipad. I keep my ipad running all day at work playing music (plugged in - so battery drain is not an issue). The music app screen gets boring quickly. I currently use the Planetary app simply because not much else is out there that does not use the ipad microphone to pick up music. I use headphones, so those "mic-based visualizer apps" don't help me. I will submit a feedback request to the link provided.
I use iBeams or maybe it is iBeam. There is a free version I use on my phone and a paid version I use on my iPad.
I like it. My iPad mostly is fix mounted on a RAM mount next to my bed. It is powered and charging most of the time and feeds my stereo. The visualizer is a nice addition for mood lighting.
Apple screwed the pouch leaving this option off.
Try the free version. It is not bad. The pay for version is better. I am not sure if it is worth it. The app should be compatible across all platforms, IMHO.
Could be because the iPad doesn't have the processor power to do it.

Yes. Maybe a toggle-able visualiser? Understand it taxes on the battery life though.
You are correct, would be a huge hit on battery life.
No visualizer built in to iPad music player? Am I on crazy pills? You'd still get a few good hours on battery.
Probably because they will release it in iOS 7 and claim that it's "revolutionary."
why doesn't iTunes for iPad have a visualizer
