Perplexity has enhanced its Comet AI browser with dedicated iPadOS features, moving beyond basic support to full multitasking capabilities. The browser combines traditional web browsing with AI chatbot functionality, working with models from OpenAI and Anthropic. This update follows Comet's initial launch on Mac and March arrival to iPhone.

The new version introduces proper iPadOS integration with multiple browser windows and Split View functionality. Users can now work with Comet alongside other apps seamlessly. The update addresses previous limitations by enabling native iPad experiences rather than simply adapting the iPhone interface. iPad users can access these improvements through the latest App Store update.

Comet represents Perplexity's early entry into the AI-browsing space, competing against established tech companies. The iPad upgrade comes alongside Personal Computer, Perplexity's recent agentic assistant for Mac. This expansion suggests Perplexity's strategy to strengthen its position in the AI-powered browsing market across multiple platforms.
