[Solved in 5.4.206] Google Mobile ADS SDK Version

How do I...?
1

Hello GDevelop Team,

Please update the Google AdMob SDK version.

Google for Developers
Deprecation and Discontinuation | Android | Google for Developers

We develop Android games and publish them on the Google Play Store. Recently, when launching our game through the Google Play Console, we received a notification that the current Google Mobile Ads SDK version is XX, which is outdated and will soon stop displaying ads. The latest version available is XX.

This issue is critical and must be addressed promptly as it directly impacts developers who rely on AdMob ads to monetize their games on Google Play. We trust in your support to ensure we can continue to deliver quality experiences to our players while sustaining our development efforts.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I’ve never used ads but looked on github to see if the devs were aware of it. Yes they are, they mention this post.
