Flickr finally makes its way to the iPad

Now this is one announcement that photography enthusiasts are going to love. Many have longed for Flickr to release an official iPad app and finally the Yahoo-owned service has listened. The official Flickr for iPad application has been released. Flickr’s new app makes it easier for users to access, organize and share their pictures using what is arguably the most popular tablet on the planet.

Do you know how to use the Flickr app for iPhone? If the answer is yes, then you already know how to use the brand new Flickr for iPad, which hit the app store today. The new app, for iOS 8 on both the iPhone and the iPad, allows the app to feature the new operating system’s sharing extension as well as streamlined search functionality. Flickr for iPad has been a long time coming, but now that it’s here, there are few surprises. It’s everything the iPhone app is, only writ large and vastly easier to see and operate.
