Ad spend on Android increases, and iOS is favored by advertisers
The report shows that advertisers' ad spend on Android in the first half of 2020 rose by 1%. Apple's announcement to change its IDFA (Identifier for Advertising) has not only affected advertisers' ad spend on iOS, but also indirectly caused ad spend on Android to grow by 3%.
Still, most advertisers prefer iOS, with 59.7% of ad spend on iOS, 19.4% higher than that on Android.
Mintegral achieves the lowest median CPI on iOS
Although the list of the Top 10 ad networks on both platforms remained similar to that of 2019, the rankings of ad networks changed greatly. Mintegral stood out, being the ad network with the biggest rise in rankings across both iOS and Android. On Android, Mintegral gained a substantial rise from the 10th in 2019 to 6th in 2020. In addition to this, Mintegral jumped from the 7th in 2019 to the 2nd in 2020 for iOS, outperforming many established players.
2020 saw a meteoric rise for TikTok and as a result was included in Android's Top 10 for the first time with a median CPI lower than that of Facebook. The median CPI gap on Android remained among the Top 10 ad networks is relatively small. Taking the top three as an example, the median CPI of Mintegral (#3) was $0.09.
On iOS, the median CPI gap among the Top 10 ad networks is noticeable, and there are only three ad networks with a median CPI below $0.20. Among them, Mintegral has the lowest median CPI of only $0.15.
