Android Question Action Required: Your app is not compliant with Google Play Policies

[Ohanian]

Hi,

I received this email for almost all of my apps, all apps are games for kids and AdMob is used to display ads. No user data is exchanged or stored by the app.

The apps are compiled with API 29.
I also contacted Google Support, but they almost resent the text of the same email!
I have no idea what this error might be about.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Do you have a solution or suggestion to solve this problem?

If i remember correctly you have to use at least targetsdk 30 when your app is in Playstore.

Also you should not use any hardware ids like MAC, Sim Serial, ectl. Do you use one of them?

Yes i'm sure about that, just Admob and no other sdk.
tnx for the answer.

Yes i'm sure about that

But you are still using targetsdk 29. It should be 30 if your app is in Playstore.
I suggest to update the targetsdk and make sure to handle the new restrictions for this SDK.

Also you can wait for any other answer.

Already updated 2 of the apps to API 30, but don't know how to check if they comply with the policy or not.

In my experience, what you have already done should be enough.
Just wait and see what Google writes after the update.
