Product pages ads

Product pages ads enable app marketers to promote their app to engaged users as they explore various pages across the App Store. Advertising on product pages allows advertisers to appear on their competitors’ or some other complementary apps’ product pages and drive high-intent users to their product pages.

Product pages ads appear at the top of the “You Might Also Like” list for users who have scrolled to the bottom of product pages, actively researching apps and seeking information to aid their download decision. An ad can span across app categories, or the categories where it appears can be refined.
