• How far does Apple Ads scale? Channel share, ceilings and what limits youRealistic expectations for Apple Ads volume — Thomas Petit's view that it usually ends up 5–20% of a scaled app's marketing mix (some accounts still reach seven figures/month), that return targets rather than search volume usually cap spend, and the opposing practitioner views on whether Apple Ads is a first channel or a "nice to have".
• How mobile UA changed (2015 → 2026) — the remaining levers, team structure and channel mix by budgetFrom 100-person manual media-buying teams (Machine Zone era) to algorithmic buying on 4–5 consolidated networks — what's left to control (bid, campaign type, budget, creative, signal), how a modern UA team is structured, and how channels and process change from six- to eight-figure monthly budgets (gaming lens).
• Should we add a new ad channel? Scale, return, effort — and small platform syndromeHow to decide whether a new or smaller ad channel (CTV, AppLovin for e-commerce, chatbot ads, retail media) is worth testing — judge scale, achievable ROAS and team effort, require it to beat (not match) incumbents, and budget for a real test plus data integration.
