where can i formally log in a complaint about in-game ads bypassing the silent mode on iphones?

This has been happening for years now but in-game ads tend to more and more bypass the silent mode of iphones/ipad which is extremely frustrating, especially when the whole point of the silent mode is to avoid making sound. Think like and ER setting gor example where you quietly play a game but the add starts blasting at full volume out of nowhere


while some of them provide the “mute” button, they tend to hide it just underneath the banner which leads to the store


is there a way to log a formal complaint to Apple for them to ether find a way to fix it or crackdown on it because I feel that this is highly disrespectful towards the user’s settings

iPhone 13
