I upgraded expo to SDK48 and was trying to submit this to the Google Play Console. Sadly im getting this error: "Google Api Error: Invalid request - Your app targets Android 13 (API 33) or above. You must declare the use of advertising ID in Play Console.". Is there a way to add this permission to expo and the Google Play Console?

  • you just need to declare the use of advertising ID in your Google Play Developer Console under **Policy and programs** -> **App content** – bagi2info.com Mar 06 '23 at 06:23
  • Thanks :) But my app is not doing anything with advertising. So I dont really understand why i should do this. @bagi2info.com – maxi hraschan Mar 06 '23 at 08:01
  • because expo library itself contains the Facebook and Branch SDKs, check this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58652516/expo-app-your-app-is-using-the-advertising-identifier-idfa – bagi2info.com Mar 06 '23 at 08:09

    Ah thanks. I actually tried your solution. You can tell google that you are not using advertising and it still works to submit the app for now. – maxi hraschan Mar 06 '23 at 08:17
  • Brent, one of the Expo team members said in Discord: "indeed, google shows that to everybody. so just fill out the declaration accordingly" – Slbox Mar 16 '23 at 22:41

    Stop telling people to go to Policy and programs -> App content – it doesn't exist. – Nick May 17 '23 at 13:55

    Nick, I thought so too, but I just found it. The left pane has more options than you think. I'm from the era when a scrollbar would automatically appear when more content is below, but this is often no longer the case. If you scroll down that left pane, you'll see Policy and Programs -> App Content. – ClayJ Jun 29 '23 at 05:22
