Hi Jill, I am the PM driving the mobile apps for Groups. We are working on Outlook Groups on iPad, and it will be available very soon. I will be at Ignite, so find me at one of the sessions or at the Office 365 Groups booth. It will be good to discuss the scenarios users in your org. are trying to accomplish on the iPad more deeply so we can build the right solutions.
Thanks,

Hi Krish,
Was it released temporarily at all? I have an Org that are 100% Groups users (50-100 users) rather than any SP Team Site scenarios currently and I'm sure some of them have the iOS Outlook Groups App.
The confusion came that I could no longer find it on the Apps store when I tried to install it on a new test device at the office.
Could you advise what the best method on iOS currently is for users to work with their groups? Outlook for Email and OneDrive for Files I am assuming though I'm not even sure if OneDrive App supports Groups at this time.

Hi Antony,
Outlook Groups app was never listed in the iPad store. However, we are seeing a lot of our mobile users are using the iPhone Groups app on their iPad. The iPhone app doesn't work very well on the iPad since it runs in phone mode, hence everything is small and its hard to use. Currently that is the option to engage deeply with groups on the iPad, but soon the native iPad app will be released which will make a huge difference in being productive on that device.
Thanks,
