Meta Extends Muse AI Agent to iPad With New Connectors and Business Tools
Meta has added native iPad support to its Muse app. The update extends an agent that launched nearly a month earlier and spent several weeks as the top free app in Apple's App Store. The Verge
Muse debuted on September 8, 2026, in the US through a dedicated app and WhatsApp. Reuters A Mac version followed about a week later for Apple Silicon Macs, the Macs built around Apple's own chips. The service is also on the web, in addition to iPhone, iPad and WhatsApp.
The core function is delegation. Muse can connect to email, calendar, payments and health apps. It can book trips, make purchases and place calls for users. It can also browse the web, generate images and create documents.
Distribution is widening quickly. Muse recorded 2.8 million downloads within two weeks of launch, with average daily download growth of 55% in its first 10 days. Reuters
The latest update adds connections to Canva, Dropbox, Figma, QuickBooks, GitHub, Zoom, Asana and Klaviyo. Meta added connectors for Granola and Notion in the same release. The list moves Muse from a standalone chat window into calendars, design files, code repositories, meeting tools and business ledgers.
The same update adds a business-goals option for small business owners. The feature lets Muse plan marketing, client pitches and new product pages on its own. Pricing stays tiered, with a free basic service plus paid tiers at $20 and $100 per month.
Meta is also testing a human concierge service for Muse. The test would pair the AI agent with human help for tasks where full automation stalls or needs verification.
Hardware plans are forming in parallel. Meta has announced Muse Charm, a standalone device that runs Muse without a smartphone. It is also working to bring Muse to its smart glasses.
The broader context here is platform coverage. Agents depend on permissions, integrations and availability where work already happens. An iPhone-only agent is constrained. An agent on iPhone, iPad, Mac, web, WhatsApp, and later glasses and a dedicated device, with read and write access to work and finance tools, can stay with longer tasks across sessions. In my view, the connector list and the small-business goal matter more than iPad layout support itself. Tablets remain a secondary work surface for many developers and knowledge workers, but native support removes friction for review, markup and multitasking where a larger screen helps.
Worth flagging for enterprise teams is the operational question that follows any agent with email, calendar, payment and file access. Scope control, audit trails and revocation will matter as much as model quality. The long arc still points toward useful delegation, and Muse is now on enough endpoints to test whether users will trust it day to day.
