It never happened in a decade of App Store. Why would it happen with an ad network?

  The reason why it would happen is because there has been a massive legal push to sue Apple, or pass new laws that make their behavior illegal. And these laws have passed, and are going to go into effect soon, and there is little Apple can do to stop it.

  Never happened? Every search I can think of had an ad covering half or more of my screen (full with the keyboard still enabled). Mostly of terrible low-quality apps you'd rather expect on the Microsoft store too. There's a whole tab for "curated" content. The whole App Store is one big "ew" experience. It's what you'd expect from other companies. ... and the rest of iOS already shows similar elements. Setting up an iPhone recently I think I saw 3 full screen ads for Apple services. From what I remember it would be a lot more if I used more first-party apps. What a disappointing way to ruin an otherwise pretty nice experience!

    Ah, sorry, you missed my point : I was not talking about ads but about the lack of competition for application distribution.
