Tumblr Launches iPad-Optimized App

Wednesday December 19, 2012 4:42 PM PST by Husain Sumra

The popular blogging service Tumblr has updated its iOS app to work natively on iPad. The popular blogging platform had previously been designed only for the iPhone, only working in 2x-mode on the iPad. iPad support isn't the only addition, as the app now has an "Explore" tab to search other Tumblr blogs as well as landscape support for the iPad version.

What's New in Version 3.2.3
- Now optimized for iPad!
- Markdown support!
- Beautiful new Explore tab.

Tumblr for iOS is available as a free download from the App Store. [Direct Link]
