I just opened up App Store and the first screen is a full screen ad for Roblox. Then you scroll down and it’s 4 “now trending” ads, then below that another full screen as. The entire “Today” tab is a scroll full of ads.


That's why I don't open the App Store's first screen or the Today tab. I usually open the App Store to look at the release notes for my updatable apps. To find new apps, I use Google to find an app's page. A web-based search engine has blockable ads, the App Store app does not.


The today tab is the default one that opens when you start the App Store. At least on my 16Pro.


That's my point. I don't start the App Store by tapping on its icon. I go to a specific page within the App Store.
