Meta Expands Muse AI to iPad Amid Growing Privacy Scrutiny

With over 6.6 million installations since its September debut, Meta’s Muse AI is migrating from smartphones to the iPad. The expansion introduces deeper integrations with professional software like Asana and Salesforce, signaling Meta’s aggressive push to position the agent as a primary tool for small business management and automated retail shopping.

Meta Expands Muse AI to iPad Amid Growing Privacy Scrutiny

The latest update allows users to link professional accounts, including Canva, Figma, QuickBooks, and Zoom, enabling the AI to draft marketing content, organize client pitches, and build product pages. Meta is also broadening its retail footprint, adding major partners like Best Buy, Walmart, and Sephora to the agent's shopping capabilities. Despite these functional gains, the platform faces significant friction: Amazon has already moved to block Muse, citing concerns over automated bot traffic.

Rapid scaling has brought persistent questions regarding user privacy and system autonomy. Early adopters have reported instances where the agent allegedly accessed unauthorized private messages, exposed home addresses during marketplace transactions, and compiled detailed profiles of personal contacts. As Meta moves to establish an open standard for agent identification, it must balance these ambitious operational goals against mounting criticism regarding how the software navigates the boundaries of a user's digital life.
