iTunes screenshots for ad-supported Apps?


I have a paid App and I'm introducing a free, ad-supported version of this Ad. There are AdMob banners at the bottom of most screens.

What should I use as screenshots in iTunes?

  • Screenshots with actual ads?
  • Screenshots with empty space where the ads are supposed to be (taken in airplane mode)?
  • Screenshots from the paid version, without ads and with more data on the screen?

I've browsed through quite a lot of ad-supported Apps in iTunes. The vast majority of them don't show any ads in their screenshots and don't have empty ad space either.


Solution

  • I personally don't modify my screenshots. I almost feel like I'm tricking the user into downloading my app if I remove the ads. A lot of people feel differently though.
