active Meta ads today
1. Search and stars carry it
Sonus makes an estimated $100K a month with only 4 active Meta ads, 0.5x the Music median of 8. The steady channel is search: 116 Apple Search Ads creatives, likely covering terms like AI song maker and AI music generator, where intent is already high. The store listing does the rest, with 10.7K ratings at 4.8 stars after 23 months. A user who types make a song with AI and sees a 4.8 rating installs without needing a social ad to convince them. Revenue per download is an estimated $3.33 on 30K downloads. The last update was Dec 22, 2025, so the app is earning on an older build. Sonus buys search terms, earns ratings and keeps social small.
2. Ads that sell a memory
The few Meta ads Sonus runs sell emotion. Some people leave, but the memories never do, is the oldest at 88 days. A Chinese line says everyone has a rain in their heart that has not stopped, and this song may walk with you. Another Chinese ad says every relationship has its own melody, type one line of your story and Sonus AI writes an original love song. French ads speak of an idea, an emotion, a moment you want to keep. 11 distinct lines fill the top 13, 12 are video, and all link to the App Store. People rarely want a song for its own sake; they want one about something. Sonus sells the occasion, not the generator.
3. Older listeners, credits on top
Meta Ad Library spend estimates are small, $579.17 of lifetime spend reaching 34.8K people, but they skew old. 27.5% of spend goes to ages 55-64, 23.8% to 45-54 and 17.2% to 65+. The United States takes 76.6% and France 23.4%. Older users may be more likely to make a song for a partner, a parent or a memory, which fits the copy. The price list adds credits to a plan: Sonus Pro at $5.99 a week or $59.99 a year, plus 10 Songs, 30 Songs and credit packs from $0.99 to $39.99. One review complains that sharing a song requires the weekly or yearly plan. Sonus sells extra songs to non subscribers as an add on.
4. The measurement gap
Sonus earns with 116 search creatives, strong ratings and a handful of emotional Meta ads in 3 languages. Which source brings a buyer of the $59.99 year, and which brings a user who buys one $0.99 song pack and leaves? The older audience in the Meta Ad Library estimates adds a question: do they pay more or less than younger users?

I tried making songs and you want me to upgrade to pro? Freak no I’m just trying to make cool stuff and yet I’m being forced to pay premium just to use the app?…
So the songs are pretty good, but when you try making another song, it wants you to join premium. I thought that maybe after an hour it wouldn’t pop up, but aft…
How to measure a playbook like Sonus's
Sonus runs 116 Apple Search Ads creatives and a few Meta ads in English, Chinese and French. Tying each to a $5.99 weekly, a $59.99 yearly or a song pack purchase is the measurement job.
- 01
Put a tracking link on every non-paid source
App Store features, creators, newsletters, Reddit threads and the website each get their own link, so installs stop landing in one organic bucket.
- 02
Connect RevenueCat to see which source pays
Trials and renewals join the install they came from, so you learn which organic source brings subscribers, not only installs.
- 03
Test paid with a small budget on the same report
When the first Meta campaign starts, it lands next to the organic sources on the same numbers, so the decision to scale is a comparison, not a guess.

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 116 days ending Apr 12, 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 25 US reviews from Apple's public review feed.
- Category medians are computed across 44 Music 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.
