How do you figure? 100% of in-app advertising goes to the split between the ad provider and the developer. Apple doesn't get 1 cent from that (unless the ad comes from Apple, obviously).


It's a loop. The ads don't make Apple money but they market games that profit off in app purchases. Apple gets 30% of those purchases so is incentivized to enable these ads and participate in making them more effective like providing metrics.
