Does LibreOffice work with iPad?
No, not currently.
There is interest in building a version of LO that runs on iOS (the operating system used by iPhones and iPads), but there are a few hurdles to overcome before that is possible.
One issue is that LO is currently available under a Free Software license (LGPLv3) that seeks to protect user's rights with respect to their devices. For example, the license gives the user the right to replace the software with a different/newer version of the software whenever they like.
Apple does not believe in giving users the freedom to replace the software running on their own hardware, and so software under the LGPL is not legally compatible with the Apple App Store. One way around this problem would be to jailbreak an iOS device.

Shortly: Yes and No, probably more NO than Yes.
No: LibreOffice is a desktop application which, probably will never run on iPad devices.
Yes: You can use one of the many remote desktop products to access a copy of LibreOffice that is running on a desktop computer and control it from your iPad. This could be an acceptable alternative for some people but definitely the experience is not going to match the one of a native iPad application.

Yes, you can use LO on iPad: https://www.rollapp.com/libreoffice
Vlad Pavlov appears to be the CEO of rollapp.com, so he's probably a good resource for answering any questions you might have about the service, how well LO runs over the browser, any new features they've added, etc...
