IndiaAIFounders — AdMob "Not approved yet" & app-ads.txt verification delay before production

AdMob "Not approved yet" & app-ads.txt verification delay before production

September 25, 2026 at 06:20 PM

Hi everyone,

I'm publishing my first Android app to the Play Store (Production), but I'm facing two AdMob issues:

Account Status: My account shows "Not approved yet." Does AdMob wait for the app to be live on the store to approve the account?

app-ads.txt: I hosted it correctly on GitHub Pages (root path), but AdMob still says "We couldn't verify." Is this just a normal crawler delay (24-72h)?

Should I just release the app to Production and wait for AdMob to catch up? Any advice is appreciated!
