When is ad an advertisement and not a recommendation?
Always? That's why it's called ad instead of recommendation

Then the question is: “When is a recommendation an ad?”
For which I’d say: When the person recommending it is gaining something from it

That’s not really a good description either. Advertisements are pretty clear: the deliberate promotion of a product or service to an audience. Saying “I like this app” in natural conversation doesn’t mean I don’t stand to benefit.

Or at least when they recommend it with the intent of gaining something from it
