Hi,
I need help, my Google admob is having issues of being outdated. Google playstore messaged me that my app would not be able to update by August 31st 2025 if my admob asset is not updated.
Hi Joseph,
The Google Mobile Ads SDK v21.x (and below) will sunset on June 30, 2025, after which older SDKs will likely fail to serve ads. After v24.0.0 (released February 28, 2025), minSdk must be ≥ 23 (Android 6.0). Play Store will reject updates using obsolete AdMob SDKs after your stated deadline (Aug 31, 2025).

Looks like the plugin is still using an old SDK. You need to upgrade it:
Check if a new plugin version is available on the Forge or OutSystems component (often updated by community).
If not available, you’ll need to:
Fork or clone the plugin source.
Replace its AdMob dependencies to the latest Google Mobile Ads SDK (v24+). That means updating dependencies to:
com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:24.x.x
Ensure your app’s minSdkVersion is at least 23, as required by the new SDK
Adjust integration code to follow v24 migration guidelines — e.g., remove deprecated elements, update initialization flags, ad-loading approaches.
Hello Jana

sorry, I'm not very good at these things, just a simple user.
