Google recently announced a new mobile app approval process for publishers running mobile ads via Google Ad Manager. The new approval process is set to come into effect starting in May 2021.
To traffic ads via Google Ad Manager on new mobile apps, publishers need to:
Only once both those conditions have been met and the apps have been found not to violate any Google policies will ad serving limits be lifted.
Google wants all mobile apps trafficking ads via Google Ad Manager to be connected to an app store.
Once you’ve submitted your app for review, it usually takes 1-2 days or slightly longer to finalize the review. During the process, ad serving on the app will be limited.
Publishers will receive an email to inform them of the results. You can also check the review status in Google Ad Manager by going to Inventory > Mobile Apps.
If approved, you’ll have unlimited ad serving capabilities and can monetize your app via Google Ad Manager to its full extent.
If not approved, your ad serving will remain limited, as will your monetization possibilities. You can check the policy center to find out why your app was not approved. Be sure to fix any policy issues as soon as possible and resubmit your app for review.
