Yahoo Tiles will help brands reach consumers through engaging and interactive content and tell them visually compelling and immersive stories on mobile devices in a post-tap environment.

When consumers click on a mobile ad through Yahoo Tiles, they are taken to a custom mobile landing page that can feature 360-degree video and images, as well as dynamic and interactive features such as video, swipeable images, and social feeds. With its lightweight design, it delivers a more engaging and seamless consumer experience for mobile native, video, and display ads, says the company in a press release.

Available for advertisers in India through Yahoo Gemini and BrightRoll, Yahoo Tiles ensures that brands tell a more creative and compelling story across Android and iOS devices. Yahoo Tiles helps advertisers reach diverse audiences at scale, including more than 600 million mobile users on Yahoo and across its extended network.
