Will the Sims 4 work on IPad Pro through the Steam app?

Hello, 

So I’ve seen all these posts about not being able to play the Sims 4 on Ipad through the App Store or the Origin app, but when I download the Steam app and browse their games, the Sims 4 is there and available for purchase. Does anyone know if it will work on my Ipad Pro through this app? I can’t find anything online mentioning trying it through Steam instead of Origin, and would rather know before spending money for the game. 

Thanks!

    @Zara10001  No, Sims 4 doesn't run in iOS, the operating system on your iPad.  You can certainly buy any games you want while using an iPad; it wouldn't make sense for Steam or any other app to block people from shopping on the device of their choice.  But the game itself currently only runs in macOS and Windows.

    I forgot to mention earlier that I do have a keyboard/track pad and a wireless mouse for my IPad Pro. Not sure if this makes a difference.
