Get your ads ready for iPhone X
October 23, 2017
Every interaction a user has with your app matters. That’s why we’re constantly evolving our advertising recommendations and policies to ensure that no matter where and on what device users are engaging with your apps, they have good experiences.
With the launch of the iPhone X, app developers now need to plan for new design considerations as the rounded corners, notch, and home screen indicator on the extended screen can obscure content and lead to poor ad experiences for users when ads are placed in these areas.
Example of ad appearing outside of “safe area” on iPhone X
That’s why we’ve put together a
guide
to help you adapt your ad strategy for iPhone X. This includes guidance for how you can shift placement of banner or native ads to designated “safe areas” for this new device.
We’ve also updated our
policies
to indicate that ads must not be placed where objects may interfere with the user's typical interaction with the ad or app, such as under the home screen indicator on the iPhone X.
Please review these policy updates and our suggested implementation
guide
to ensure you’re compliant by November 20th.
If you have any questions, visit the
AdMob Help Center
or contact your Google account team.
