I would like to gift an iPad app to my friend. I don't have iTunes installed on my work laptop and right now I don't have my iPad with me.

All I am trying is checking it on App Store on my iPhone, but the search is not listing the iPad version, instead it's only showing iPhone version of the same app.

I also tried via browser, but no luck.

Do I have to wait until I go home and do it from either iTunes on my Mac or iPad?

Looking for some solution!

Be aware that you can only gift to people in the same region as yourself: specifically to people whose iTunes account's credit card is issued in the same country as yours! (This might not be a big deal in US but it certainly is in Europe.) – Torben Gundtofte-Bruun Nov 30 '10 at 15:53

At the moment, you have to use iTunes to gift an application for iPad.

If the application is universal, then you can gift the app with your iPhone.
