Comet now supports iPadOS multitasking features

Comet combines the web‑browser experience with an AI chatbot, and Perplexity works with AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and more.

Perplexity brought Comet to iPhone back in March (link) after first launching the AI‑powered web browser on the Mac (link).

While Comet included basic iPad support initially, today’s update introduces proper iPadOS support with features such as:

• Multiple browser windows
• Split View and other multitasking capabilities

Comet now works naturally with iPadOS features, allowing you to use it alongside the apps you already use.

The update is available now on the App Store.
