First and foremost, let me state my opinion on the "Will Spiderman appear in the MCU?". Personally, I would jizz myself if I saw Spidey web swinging past Stark Towers on the silver screen. The answer if you ask me, is maybe, maybe not. There is evidence supporting both sides, but the Oscorp logo in the Gameloft version of the Iron Man 3 game means absolutely nothing.
As a Phoenix Wright fan, there is nothing that this brony hates more than faulty evidence, Sooo...

As Phoenix Wright would say, TAKE THAT!
Gameloft made the iOS port of the Amazing Spiderman game. What does this mean?
Well, simply put, they were advertising. You guys got excited over absolutely nothing.
Now I know what you're saying "Sony and MARVEL would not let Gameloft do that unless they were merging the two franchises!"
No, that is exactly what they would do EVEN IF they weren't merging the franchises. Without having to split profit, by putting this subtle advertisement for the Amazing Spiderman in an MCU game, they increase hype for both franchises. By increasing hype, they increase SALES.
Don't believe me? Well lucky for me, I'm a brony, and have had experience with this kind of thing before.
It was Season 2 Episode 14 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Most remember this episode for having a fan favorite background character getting a speaking role based on her fanon personality, but there were 2 things the fandom went crazy about in the episode.
The second one was that Pinkie Pie mentioned chimichangas. The result? Pinkie Pie had already been compared to Deadpool before this episode, but the few lines of her mentioning chimichangas got everyone riled up as fanfics and fanart FLOODED Deviantart and Fimfiction.
What does this have to do with Amazing Spiderman in the MCU? Well, let me put it bluntly, if they even ACCIDENTALLY hint at a crossover with two beloved icons, fans go crazy and the hype-train loses it's brakes.
Now imagine this. These 2 icons originally were in the same universe, but now they are in the same universe ON THE FREAKING BIG SCREEN! The hype train is going at the speed that causes meteors to burn up in the atmosphere.
Before I end this article. Let me restate what I said at the beginning, just to clarify, there is still evidence supporting the "Amazing Spiderman in the MCU" theory, and personally, I would LOVE to see it happen. But before we jump to calling evidence decisive. Let's do our homework.
If you're going to just hate on me for using brony stuff as an example, please leave, I just used the brony stuff because I'm familiar with it and saw a connection.
