1Why it matters

Contains advertising is a note Apple asks developers to declare. An app with paid plans may still show ads to free users, and the note is where a listing says so.

4The production behind the listing

Away from the store listing in “Which AI video apps say they contain advertising”, SceneMixer runs in a browser and describes its pipeline like this:

SceneMixer writes dialogue into the script analysis, assigns each line to a shot with a speaker and a short delivery note, and the video model performs it — picture and audio generated together, so the mouth forms that sentence in the language you chose.

Seedance 2.0 (ByteDance's video model family) is one of the strongest engines for vertical short drama in 2026.
