people reached by estimated Meta spend

1. Healthy or toxic, for 332 days

Ivy found its line and kept it. The top ad, live 332 days, says easily scan foods to see if what your family is eating is actually healthy or TOXIC with Ivy, try for free on the App Store today. The next 7 longest runners repeat it with small wording changes, and the newer line is gentler: healthy shouldn't be this confusing. All 13 are video, 10 mention a free offer, and 12 link to the App Store. The copy works on a parent's fear and offers a free first step, a scan, in the same sentence. Live ads peaked at 134 on Sep 5, 2026. Ivy pairs one emotional binary with a family frame and a free action, then runs it until it stops working.

2. Built in the UK, paid in the US

Few apps of this size spend this much in public view. Meta Ad Library spend estimates put lifetime spend at $585K, reaching 36.1M people. The United Kingdom takes 58.0% of reach and 47.4% of spend, the United States 38.3% of reach and 50.2% of spend, and Ireland 2.38% of spend. The charts follow the money: Ivy ranks #8 in the United Kingdom, #9 in Ireland, #12 in Australia, #26 in New Zealand and #35 in Canada. Spend splits almost evenly by gender, men at 54.1%, and 25-34 year olds take 40.6%. Ivy appears to prove an ad in another English market first, then push the winner into the US.

3. A cheap year behind a hard gate

The ladder pushes the year: Pro Access costs $9.99 a month, and annual plans run $19.99, $34.99, $39.99 or $49.99, a 2.5x spread, with the cheapest annual at 17% of 12 monthly payments. That converts well, with an estimated $3.0 per download on 100K downloads. The cost shows in the reviews. Of the latest 123, 52 mention price, trial or subscription, 42.3%, and 48 are negative. Reviewers say the app asks for a rating before they can use it, runs a long quiz, then blocks the scanner behind payment. The store rating stays at 4.7 from 10.7K ratings, but the latest window averages 2.9. Ivy's ads promise a free first scan, and the reviews show what happens when that promise breaks.

4. The measurement gap

Ivy put an estimated $585K of Meta spend into the UK and US, ran one healthy or toxic line for 332 days and sells a $19.99 to $49.99 year. Which country, line and annual price bring a parent who renews, and which bring a one-star review at the paywall? With 48 of 52 recent pay mentions negative, the answer shapes the next budget.

How to measure a playbook like Ivy's

Ivy runs 58 Meta ads across the UK and US into a $19.99 to $49.99 annual plan. Measuring it means tying each renewal to its country and ad line.

  1. 01

    Connect Meta and see cost next to results

    Spend, installs and in-app events land in one report by campaign, so channels get compared on the same numbers.

  2. 02

    Send trial and purchase events back to Meta

    Core sends mobile postbacks to Meta and three other channels, so the algorithm can optimize for payers instead of cheap installs. Growth adds more channels.

  3. 03

    Connect RevenueCat for revenue by campaign

    Subscription revenue joins the install data, so each campaign shows return on ad spend, not only cost per install.

How we built this teardown

  • Revenue and downloads are third-party estimates from AppKittie, snapshot Oct 16, 2026. Store intelligence estimates for a single app can be off by 30% or more. Treat them as a range, not a figure from the developer. Daily revenue and download series cover 111 days ending Apr 28, 2026.
  • Ads come from the public Meta Ad Library. "Days live" counts days since an ad first appeared. Spend and audience breakdowns start from Meta's EU transparency figures; country splits outside the EU are AppKittie models.
  • Prices, ratings and ranks come from the App Store (US storefront) on the same date. Prices differ by country and by paywall offer. Review stats use the latest 123 US reviews from Apple's public review feed.
  • Category medians are computed across 147 Health & Fitness apps with active Meta ads in our set of 860 subscription apps.
  • Written by Hyunjong Choi. Ads, prices and estimates are refreshed every 30 to 90 days. Updated Oct 19, 2026.
