Android Question Legacy Admob finishes on the 31st August..

[ptp170]

Is this anything to worry about? I found this quite by accident and have had no warnings from Google via email etc?

Will the current Admob library still work... just fearful of clicking on the 'Upgrade Account' option if it breaks something for us B4A users

Thanks

You should migrate to AdMob v2.00: http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/admob-library.7301/

I've used v2.00 from the outset with my projects.. So everything 'should' be ok then?? Has anyone done this upgrade? Or would anyone like to be the guinea pig?

Right, I decided to just go ahead and upgrade the account and it displays the following steps that will be performed:

Sign up for AdMob
AdMob requires you to have a valid AdSense account and AdWords account. If you don't have one or both of these accounts, we'll help you create them during the sign-up process and connect them to your Google Account.
1 Select your Google Account - Looks like you already have an existing AdMob account.
2 Complete AdSense information
3 Complete AdWords information
4 Review AdMob program policies
5 Start using AdMob

It's a 5 step process but the first step (which involves clicking on a button) just links straight back to the normal Admob interface! Steps 2 - 5 are never done?!?

Well this is weird. I think I already have the 'new' Admob UI even though it tries to 'upgrade' me and I don't have an Adwords/AdSense account (a prerequisite-see previous post). This seems to be a convoluted process
