Chart - Conversion Rates For Mobile App Promotion Ads By Format & OS

Mobile apps are themselves frequently a part of a brand’s marketing efforts, but they too must be marketed or consumers may never know they exist. Mobile ads are an obvious choice for app promotion, since a call to action can encourage immediate download.
