AdMob allows you to add an app that hasn’t been listed in an app store yet, or is listed on a third-party store that AdMob doesn’t support. After you list your app in a store AdMob supports, you can link your app to an app store so that the app details (e.g., app icon) are automatically updated in AdMob.
If you haven’t added your app to AdMob yet, review the instructions for how to set up an app in AdMob.
If you just listed your app in an app store, it may take up to one week before you can link to it.
Complete the following steps to link your app to an app store:
- Sign in to your AdMob account at https://apps.admob.com.
- Click Apps in the sidebar.
- Select the name of the app you want to link.
Note: If you don't see it in the list of recent apps, click View all apps. Then, click the name of the app.
- Click Add in the App store section.
Note: If there’s no option to add an app store, you may have already linked this app. If the app is already linked, you can't change it.
