Why can't I find apps like Instagram or snapchat on the AppStore?

Nothing. Both Apps are currently available for iPads.

As noted 3 years ago, you need to set the filter to iPhone apps, so they appear in the search results.

So Snapchat and Instagram are like made for iPhone. Afterwards you will see that iPad is not very compatible with them. All you need to do is go to the Appstore and then click icon which is in left corner (Up). You will see two options. Click the one which says only iPhone. Finally search for Snapchat, Instagram and other stuff...

iPads are more than capable of running Instagram and snapchat. I got my iPad Air II when they were first released and it has never had any issues running either app.

It also doesn't boil down to personal experience either, only with what iPad you have(In regards to model. Older iPads may have issues but that would be a hardware issue, not a software issue as both apps run flawlessly on hardware with the proper specs).

They are both relatively low demand apps.

They are not available for the ipad only for the iphone.

The developers have chosen which devices to support.

Actually both are fully comaptible wirh iPad (according to their requirements) though they are iPhone Apps.

You may need to tap on the iPhone Apps section of the search results to see them.

Three yrs later and this is still an unfulfilled want. I feel you pain man. And share it. What is wrong with these devs?
