    My attempt to publish my game on Google Play was rejected because ad the ad policy with the following message:

    "Your app contains ads that do not comply with our Families ad format requirements. For example, the following is prohibited:

    Ads that interfere with normal app use that are not closeable after 5 seconds. "

    After searching in forums I could see that there was an option to allow skip in rewarded videos but there is no more.

    From Integration Guide for Unity:

    • Select Rewarded video to allow players to opt-in to viewing ads in exchange for incentives. Rewarded Ad Units do not allow the player to skip the ad.

    Being a game targeted to child under 13 is switching ad network my only option?

    I have changed ad network. Changed to admob and everything went ok, published successfully. Failed to find a solution within Unity Ads.

    I would not like to change the ad network, it is a pity that Unity ignore this problem

    Can someone from the Unity support answer this question? It's clearly not a one-time problem as different people have it

    Now you can skip reward, but only videos, "Playable" so far you can't skip, but it's at least something. Let's see how Google Play reacts to the update
