New Apple Ads Spot Available To Advertisers In Q4

The new spots open up additional advertising opportunities just in time for the holiday season when competition is at its peak.

[{"selector":"#anim-c5fb8ff0-8980-4bed-b045-94a44a447638","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3ee958ea-81f1-4b78-8847-125165aeff95","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -156.62455%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Currently, Apple ad inventory is only available in the Apple Search results page and the Search tab.

[{"selector":"#anim-661ad258-b368-40fe-b5d4-67f213f75682","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.2381%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b98a461d-fca4-4ec8-b4de-be4b1f4ffcfe","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bfe0f145-4aaf-42df-8ba3-e1aeca6a1547","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Apple first reached out to developers to announce the expansion of ad spots across the app store.

[{"selector":"#anim-808f12b3-165c-43d8-a541-07252a491f42","keyframes":[{"transform":"rotate(-540deg) scale(0.1)","opacity":0},{"transform":"none","opacity":1}],"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

While Apple did not include this information directly in the invitation to developers, there’s a good chance Apple is including ad units in the Today tab of the app store.

There is also discussion that ad units will be available directly within app product pages, however, it is not confirmed yet.
