Ads force Google Play to open

  1. What's with the ads that require you open the google play links to finish them? This messes with the suggested apps and algorithms in general

  2. Yeah, they're really annoying.
     
  3. More clicks = more money. I stopped watching ads for stuff coz of it auto clicking into the ad and loading whatever bulshit

  4. I asked support about those types of ads and this is the lie I got back..[​IMG]
     
  5. This keeps happening in all the games I'm playing, it's so annoying. But I have a tip for you if you're using ads to get regen. You don't actually need to watch ads for regen. You just start the ad, then you close the game and open again and your regen is there. It's the only function that I seen that trick works. Don't think it works for watching ads for other purposes. It makes it a lot faster and less annoying with the regeneration though.

  6. Report them to the FTC or Ads Standards like I did. Just take a screen shot of the end of the ad that shows it requiring GP to be opened. The deal is we watch an ad and we get rewards. There's a whole other section in the store where opening/using an app is knowingly required for the stated rewards

  7. This is a new thing happening in ads across all games, and I agree, it is so very annoying. 🫠
