Apple News banners
Apple-owned banner ad creatives which have been optimised to cater to the user experience in Apple News. Banners can serve either in-article or in-feed content, and include a variety of sizes across iPhone, tablet and Macs. We recommend running Apple News banners when looking to advertise on the platform as these have a great serve compatibility and are likely to produce higher levels of engagement than regular IAB banners.
