Best Practices
Auto-Play
Take advantage of auto-play to immediately engage your audience. Do NOT bid CPC or oCPM for Clicks to guarantee autoplay eligibility
Keep it short
Use 15 - 30 second video clips. Avoid showing mobile devices in the video.
Feature the Best Parts
Grab people's attention by featuring the best parts of your app, for example game play, featured characters or product sales. Use action sequences if relevant with special effects, slow motion, zoom ins, freeze-frames, etc.
Sound-Off environment
Design for a sound-off environment. Use music rather than voiceovers. Apply overlays that convey your message, e.g. “Exciting match 3 game!” Your video should make sense without volume on.
Last Frame
Your last frame should have a lasting effect - make sure it resonates with your audience and invites deeper action to download your app. Use the call-to-action unit to really drive the point home
