Does STO plan to transfer to iPad?

Hi, good day everyone,
I saw my friend's iPad can download Starcraft and play it.
Does anyone know the STO may transfer to iPad platform or other systems in the future?:confused:
If so, that will be very great to play STO game anytime anywhere.

    Chances are if there is ever an ipad version it'll be fanmade, Cryptic don't even have plans for a mac version and i'd think that'd be the first step.

    STO barely plays on my rather beefy laptop with a 1GB video card. Its a pretty graphically heavy game.

    And before someone says it. Starcraft 2 MIGHT have an ipad app to control the game running on your main PC sometime down the road. And it was suggested that Original, 10 year old Starcraft MIGHT make it to the IPad as a port. Neither are confirmed, and neither is anything like runniing a "new" 3d-accelerated Video game on a portable device.

    So in short: No.

    I'd be highly curious to see someone designing a UI that actually makes STO playable on a touchscreen display. I guess it would be...challenging.
