2025年中东应用经济增速远超全球平均水平。由Sensor Tower与Bidease联合发布的报告显示,GCC地区(包含六个中东国家)下载量同比增长2.6%,而全球仅增长0.5%;内购收入同比跃升20%达到7亿美元,其中阿联酋增幅高达26%。用户使用时长亦创新高,2025年上半年累计达2000亿小时。Sensor Tower首席战略官Anthony Bartolacci指出,移动优先企业及超级应用的兴起正在改变消费行为,驱动区域增长。
面对市场饱和这一核心挑战(52%的受访营销者提及),区域营销者采用高频创意更新策略。近80%的营销者每周至少更新一次创意素材,许多借助GenAI工具实现自动化加速。此外,程序化购买和DSP的采用率持续上升,以提升投放效率。Bidease中东及北非董事总经理Shy Ramini强调,用户获取仍是引擎,规模化取决于创意严谨、AI介入和从测试到洞察到预算的快速转化,多元化是下一个突破口。
AI正成为拥挤市场中定义竞争优势的关键技术。近三分之二(64%)的营销者将其用于广告素材生成,超过半数(53%)用于个性化体验,47%用于预算分配,40%用于优化campaign。报告描绘了中东市场进入增长新纪元的图景,成功取决于速度、创意与数据驱动策略的结合。欲获取完整报告,请下载。
The article discusses how mobile marketers can navigate 2023's economic slowdown, privacy changes, and post-COVID cooldown. Key insights include shifting from growth to profitability, prioritizing retention, diversifying channels, and adopting new measurement frameworks (SKAN 4.0, MMM, incrementality). Data shows apps spent $80B on UA in 2022 (5% YoY drop), iOS installs grew 16%, and non-gaming IAP revenue rose 20% while gaming fell 16%. Experts stress agility, LTV focus, and CTV growth.
App Store Optimization (ASO) is crucial for increasing organic app downloads and reducing user acquisition costs, especially with IDFA deprecation. ASO involves optimizing metadata (title, description, keywords), visuals (icons, screenshots, videos), and leveraging user reviews. Key differences exist between Apple App Store and Google Play Store (e.g., keyword duplication handling). Regular updates, A/B testing, and seasonality are essential tactics. Top 3 search positions capture most downloads, making ASO a high-ROI strategy.
Banks lack unified attribution for owned channels (email, SMS, push), web, QR codes, and re-engagement, causing budget misallocation. Omnichannel attribution connects all touchpoints to deposits and loans, revealing that owned channels can be 2-3X more cost-efficient than paid ads. Cross-device journeys (e.g., mobile ad to desktop conversion) remain invisible in single-device attribution. Banking-grade compliance (SOC 2, ISO 27001) is maintained. Ad ops decision-makers can optimize budget allocation by comparing true cost per deposit/loan across channels.
TikTok's full-funnel automation, integrating creative, media, and measurement, addresses fragmentation in AI tools. Brands using Smart+ and GMV Max see improved ROAS and CPA. Case studies show Naturium achieved 3.5x ROAS, PHLUR 191% higher ROAS, and Leatherman 97% revenue increase. Symphony and Content Suite enable scalable, authentic content. The key is pairing automation with strategic storytelling.
AppsFlyer’s 2026 creative data shows video and static image ads reward opposite creative qualities, so ad ops teams should plan, budget, and test them separately. Video spend is concentrating: gaming’s top 2% of video creatives captured 60.7% of spend, up from 53.5%, while image spend spread out. Top spenders are testing far more variations, widening the testing gap. Action/Strategy and Puzzle/Lifestyle show format-specific tone and social-proof reversals; Finance is the exception. Teams should use AI-assisted variation, analyze video winners deeply, keep broad image testing, and measure performance at attribute level.
Shopping app installs rose 16% YoY in 2024 but fell 18% in H1 2025, while sessions climbed, signaling a shift to higher-quality users. LATAM showed strong growth (installs +18%, sessions +27%). Marketplace apps lead engagement with 24.8% day-1 retention. Global CPI for e-commerce dropped to $0.99 in Q1 2025, with North America highest at $2.70. Key trends include quick commerce ($195B projected), voice commerce ($151.4B), AI chatbots, privacy-first personalization, and D2C mobile investment.
Over 75% of banking app users drop off after first session due to friction. AppsFlyer's Deep Linking Suite preserves user intent by routing customers directly to relevant in-app experiences from any entry point: web, QR codes, SMS, email, or app. Deferred deep linking ensures non-app users reach the intended destination after installation. Deep linking improves day-30 retention by 110% with personalized onboarding. For ad ops, this reduces wasted ad spend by connecting campaigns to actual conversions like account funding.
New app developers must integrate monetization from day one, not after building a user base. Rewarded ads offer a value-exchange model that boosts retention. A hybrid of IAA and IAP creates sustainable growth, but requires careful design to balance user experience. Early revenue, even modest, should be reinvested into user acquisition. Continuous testing of ad formats and placements is essential. Partnerships with mediation platforms like Mintegral can maximize ad revenue without harming UX.
