Hello,

i am trying to do some testing on my ads implementation.

I took this as a reference and ran with it.
i have added my device as test device.


BUT the ads i am getting are REAL ads without any Test Ad label - i dont want to get my account banned.

so how can i confirm i am not violating anything.
when i look in the admob console - i do see the requests made and impressions made.

Thanks  a lot

sorry...

The problem has been resolved. 
When ATT (App Tracking Transparency) tracking is enabled on iOS, "Test Mode" is now displayed on the ad screen.

BUT I don't want to get my account banned, so how can I be sure that I haven't violated anything?

Thank you.

Hi Kentarou,

Thank you for updating us, and I'm glad that your issue has been resolved.

With regard to your concern, your account will not get banned immediately if you accidentally requested a live ad while testing. Moving forward, if you want to test your app, we recommend to run on an emulator/simulator or use our sample ad unit ID to avoid your app being flagged for invalid activity.
