Bing Piloting Direct Navigation To App Installs In U.S.
Now Piloting App Install Ads, a new ad format for driving app installs
Akshaya Pragadeeshram , Product news , November 10, 2016
What are App Install Ads?
App install ads are a new ad format to help you drive people directly to your app on Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Similar to other ad formats in Bing Ads, you’ll find App Install Ads when you select the ad type for the campaign you want to run.
Why Use App Install Ads?
Using App Install Ads gets app customers to your app store directly, eliminating the extra time, navigation, and clicks they would otherwise need to take from your website.
Best yet, these ads come with smart targeting: they automatically detect the user’s mobile device and operating system, sending customers to the corresponding app store: Apple App or Google Play. You can check the effectiveness of your app install ad by setting up easy conversion tracking: this functionality is supported through our certified partners: Appsflyer, Kochava, Tune and Apsalar.
