Foundations

Know what a CPP can and cannot changeCPPs vary screenshots, app previews, and promotional text; the app name, subtitle, icon, and description stay the same as your default page.Plan within the limit of 35 published CPPs per appThe cap is generous but not infinite; reserve slots for your biggest intent themes and seasonal moments.Understand where CPPs can be usedApple Ads (search results and other placements), any external URL you control (paid social, email, influencers), and Apple’s featuring â but organic search always shows the default page.Remember each CPP goes through App ReviewCPP creative is reviewed like regular metadata; build submission lead time into campaign timelines.

Intent Mapping

Define one intent theme per CPPOne CPP = one user problem or use case; a page that tries to speak to three intents converts like your default page, which defeats the purpose.Mine your Apple Ads search-term reports for high-volume intent clustersGroup converting search terms into themes (e.g. "sleep tracker" vs. "meditation") — each cluster with meaningful spend deserves its own CPP.Map each CPP to a dedicated keyword ad groupThe mechanism that makes CPPs work in Apple Ads is ad-group-level assignment: theme keywords in one ad group, that ad group pointed at the matching CPP.Plan CPPs for competitor-brand campaignsA CPP for competitor terms can lead with your differentiators against that competitor — without changing your default page.Reserve CPPs for seasonal and promo momentsNew Year fitness, back-to-school, holiday sales — seasonal CPPs let you run timely creative without touching (or re-reviewing) your main listing.

Creative Variation Strategy

Rework the first screenshot per CPP to mirror the search intentThe user searched "calorie counter"; screenshot #1 should show calorie counting, not your generic hero shot — message match is the whole conversion lever.Echo the ad keyword’s language in the caption copyVary the preview video’s opening seconds per theme where feasibleThe first 3 seconds autoplay muted in results; open on the themed feature.Use promotional text as a themed headline slotPromotional text (170 chars) is CPP-specific and sits at the top of the description â treat it as the page’s tagline for that intent.Keep a shared design system across CPPs for maintainabilityTemplate your caption styles and frames so producing CPP variants is an asset swap, not a redesign.

Links, Deep Links & Distribution

Record each CPP’s unique URL for use outside Apple AdsEvery CPP gets a shareable URL — use it in paid social, influencer briefs, email, and web CTAs to keep message match beyond Apple Ads.Pair CPPs with post-install deep links or onboarding variants where possibleContinuity should not stop at install: route users into the themed feature on first launch so the promise made on the page is kept in-app.Confirm CPP behavior in each placement you plan to buyCPPs work with search results, Today tab, and other Apple Ads placements — verify current placement support before committing creative.Coordinate CPP usage with in-app events if you run them

Measurement & Iteration

Define the success metric per CPP before launchUsually conversion rate (impressions to installs) vs. the default page for the same ad group’s traffic â set the baseline first.Monitor CPP performance in App Store Connect and Apple AdsApp Analytics breaks out impressions, downloads, and conversion per product page; Apple Ads reports per ad group so keep the 1:1 mapping clean.Give each CPP enough volume before judging itLow-traffic ad groups can take weeks to reach significance; do not kill a CPP on 200 impressions.Promote winning CPP creative into your default page or PPO testsA CPP that beats the default for broad traffic is a candidate for a Product Page Optimization test on organic traffic.Audit and prune stale CPPs quarterlyExpired seasonal pages and outdated UI screenshots quietly rot; a quarterly review keeps all 35 slots earning.

Custom product pages (CPPs) let you show different visitors different versions of your App Store listing: each CPP carries its own screenshots, promotional text, and app preview videos, and Apple allows up to 35 of them per app. Paired with Apple Search Ads, they solve the biggest conversion problem in paid UA — a user who searched “sleep tracker” landing on a product page that leads with your calorie counter.

This planner walks you through the decisions that make a CPP program work: which keyword themes deserve a dedicated page, what each page’s message hierarchy should be, what creative assets you need to produce, and how you will measure each page against your default listing.

How to plan your custom product pages

1
List your Apple Ads keyword themes and rank them by spend — high-spend themes with weak conversion rates are the best CPP candidates.
2
For each candidate theme, define the single message the page must lead with, and note which screenshots and promo text need to change to deliver it.
3
Work through the checklist to confirm each planned page has assets, an assigned ad group, and a success metric before production starts.
4
Brief the creative work, then assign each finished CPP as the ad variation for its matching ad group in Apple Search Ads.
5
After launch, compare each CPP’s conversion rate against the default page and cut or iterate the underperformers.

What custom product pages can and cannot change

Each of the up to 35 CPPs per app can carry its own screenshot set, its own promotional text, and its own app preview videos — the elements that do most of the persuading on a product page. The app name, icon, subtitle, description, and ratings stay the same as your default listing, so a CPP is a re-framing of your app, not a different app. Each page also gets its own unique Apple-hosted URL, which is what makes it addressable from ads and links.

CPPs are used in two main ways: as ad variations in Apple Search Ads, where you attach a CPP to an ad group so users who tap that ad land on the matched page, and as deep link destinations for traffic you control — email campaigns, influencer links, social ads, or your own website. The same page can serve both roles, which is why planning pages around audience intent rather than around a single channel pays off.

Choosing which pages to build first

Thirty-five is a ceiling, not a target. Every CPP costs design work, localization, review time, and ongoing measurement, so the right starting number is usually three to five pages aimed at your highest-spend, weakest-converting keyword themes. A finance app might start with one page each for “budget planner”, “expense tracker”, and “save money” — three intents its default page can only serve generically.

Prioritize by expected impact: monthly ad spend on the theme × the conversion gap you believe a matched page can close. A theme spending $5,000 a month at 30% CVR that a tailored page could lift toward 40% is worth a page; a theme spending $200 a month is not, no matter how neatly it segments. Reserve a slot or two for seasonal pages (holidays, back-to-school) — building them once and re-enabling them each year is one of the cheapest CVR wins available.

Frequently asked questions

How many custom product pages can an app have?

Apple allows up to 35 custom product pages per app. Each one has its own screenshots, promotional text, and app preview videos, and its own unique URL. Most teams see the best return from a handful of well-measured pages rather than filling all 35 slots.

What can I change on a CPP versus the default product page?

You can change the screenshots, promotional text, and app preview videos. The app name, icon, subtitle, description, price, and ratings are shared with your default listing and cannot differ per CPP.

How do CPPs connect to Apple Search Ads?

You attach a CPP to an ad group as an ad variation. Users who tap that ad land on the matched page instead of your default listing, and Apple reports tap-through and conversion rates per variation — so you can directly measure whether the tailored page converts better for that keyword theme.

Can I use custom product pages outside of Apple Ads?

Yes. Every CPP has a unique URL you can deep link to from anywhere — email, social ads, influencer campaigns, QR codes, or your website. This makes CPPs a general-purpose landing page system for the App Store, not just an Apple Ads feature.

Do custom product pages need App Review?

Yes — CPP assets go through App Review like other store metadata, but a CPP can be submitted and published without releasing a new version of your app binary. Build review time into your campaign launch schedule rather than treating pages as instantly editable.

How do I know if a CPP is actually working?

Compare its conversion rate against your default page for the same traffic source, ideally with a pre-defined threshold (for example, +10% relative CVR) and enough installs on both sides to be meaningful. A CPP that matches the default is wasted maintenance; iterate the creative or retire the page.

Measure every product page against every keyword theme

Appalize syncs your Apple Ads structure and conversion data, so you can see which keyword themes underconvert on the default page, deserve a CPP, and actually improved after launch — with automation rules shifting spend to what wins.
