Is it allowed to use Admob on Android TV and Apple TV? On internet there are many confusing answers

[PRO Animations3D]

Hello, am a .Net/Java/Swift APP Dev,
Have a BIG costumer that is asking me to create a TV App Channel

TV Apps are no problem to develop.

What seems Hairy is to implement the ADS, or some sort of Grey Policy Area

The only info I can find is indirect statements coming from third parties sites, Ads using AdMob seems to be a problem on Android TV and Apple TV according to them.

Personally I normally use AdMob.  But i can't find any DIRECT statements, from AdMob/Android TV/Apple TV that gives a green light, and no documentation at all.

Can I continue using it on TV apps?

Or should I move into:
Teads Ads?
Google Ad Manager (GAM)?
Interactive Media Ads (IMA)?
Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI)?

Which one is the best option, in order to comply with Android TV & Apple TV policies?

After checking around, is very confusing because no Official Statements.
I have seen somebody asking similar questions, but then some guy out of the blue with 0 credibility pops up out of the blue, and the question gets closed.

Please, if you DON'T WORK for Google AdMob, directly or very indirectly. Give your opinion if you want, but just because you did a google 2 min search and copy and paste the response here, doesn't solve the problem.

I posted the same question on Admob, but am not sure were to post this actually, and this perhaps is a better place

Ok, thank you.

Buy any change you could translate a little bit quickly the "Java library" into a "C# code" for Unity? (It's just a 1 day job)

In different chat rooms seems we all have acces to THIS POWERFUL 3D technology called C#!

And many prefer to skip building for TV, because it's in Java.
(Java and C# are almost the same, came from the same source, but takes to much time to master both in order to translate, and i can see you already did it with Admob and it was a SUCCES!!)

By any change you can ask this guys on another team inside google if they can pull this off quickly?
https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-unity/tree/master/source

This are the people inside google that created it:
https://github.com/orgs/googleads/people

I don't have any way to chat with them

Would cost you peanuts!

Is it feasible?

In how much time do you think you could pull this off?

Am okey waiting some months, but this is a KABOOOM! For IMA SDK if you untap it fast!

Because Java is a 2D tech.. C# is 3D tech and the community are suuuuuuuuper SHARP!

Thanks

James

Hi PRO,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately we do not do library conversions here and also are unable to go to the team and ask them to do this. If you would like, we would suggest reaching out to the Admob Help Center , as they might be able to offer you help regarding that there.

Regards,

William Pescherine IMA SDK Team
