Mobile advertising, as a core branch of digital marketing, focuses on reaching users through mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Its core advantages lie in precision, immediacy and interactivity. By integrating technologies such as geographical location, device sensors and real-time data, it provides highly contextualized marketing solutions for advertisers in scenarios such as applications, mobile web pages, social media and push notifications. By 2025, mobile advertising will break through traditional display forms and develop towards immersive, intelligent and highly personalized experiences. AR/VR Advertising: Users can interact with 3D advertisements through their phone cameras (such as virtual try-ons and furniture placement). Real-time generation of advertisements by artificial intelligence: Advertising copy, images, and even video content can all be dynamically adjusted based on usage. Three Transformation Directions of Mobile Advertising in 2025
- Interactive Upgrade: From "Watching" to "Participating" Gamified advertising (playable ads) allows users to directly experience product features (such as trying out a snippet of a mobile game). Voice interaction advertising (such as making purchases through smart assistants).
- Dynamic Personalization 2.0 Artificial intelligence not only recommends advertisements but also generates creative content in real time (for example, pushing different beverage advertisements based on the weather). Cross-device ID solutions (such as Google's Privacy Sandbox) can ensure precise targeting.
- Privacy and Effectiveness Balance Zero-party data (data actively provided by users) has become crucial, and incentive-based advertising (such as answering questions to receive coupons) has become more common. Blockchain technology is used to make advertising placement more transparent (for example, verifying actual exposure rates).
