Overview
Apple Search Ads (ASA) places app ads in App Store search results and browse placements, reaching high-intent users actively searching for apps.
Because placements appear directly in the App Store during active app searches, ASA captures the highest-intent users in the entire mobile advertising ecosystem.
ASA Basic (automated, simple) and ASA Advanced (keyword-based, full control) are the two product tiers.
Advanced allows advertisers to bid on specific keywords, manage match types, and segment campaigns by device and audience.
