GoKawiilApple Begins Rolling Out Paid Ads in Apple Maps Search Results
Apple has started showing ads in the Maps app, appearing as the top entry in 'suggested places' and search results, marked with a blue 'ad' label. The rollout, first reported by 9to5Mac, began this week and will expand to more users across the US and Canada in coming weeks, following Apple's March announcement that businesses could pay for premium placement.
