Cant publish in apps store

oe_albornoz

I am trying to publish my game in the appstore. in the gamesalad web process i unchecked all the ads options, then i generate the binary and sign it but when i send it to apple with the application loader i get this message "improper Advertising identifier IDFA Usage. Your app contains the Advertising Identifier IDFA API but you have not indicated its usare on the Prepare for Upload page in iTunes Connect". In the "export compilance i uncheck the Ads options as well. i dont understand why the file contais this API if i unchecked all the ads options in gamesalad web and the itunes connect. does anybody knows what i am doing wrong?

Because you are not a pro member with GS...your app with disperse ads from within the app...only pro members are allowed to disable ads....provided by GS at start up. So....you need to make sure you choose these options you will see in this video tutorial of mine...from beginning up to around 3min 30secs.

@Thunder_Child‌ I am a PRO member, thats exactly the problem i disabled the ads but when i try to send the binary i get the message ""improper Advertising identifier IDFA Usage. Your app contains the Advertising Identifier IDFA API but you have not indicated its usare on the Prepare for Upload page in iTunes Connect"

Try enabling the Ads(after you have click the blue btn upload binary on itune connect) but check only the first line and uncheck the rest...(Note: I am not referring to the ads on GS)

@skylite i know waht you mean but if my app will not show any ads why would i check that option. i am thinking that all apps in game salad contains this API even if you dont use it. What do you think?

@oe_albornoz please create a support ticket and include a link to your game (send the publishing portfolio link: http://publish.gamesalad.com/games/xxxxxx/edit) where the xxxxxx is the ID for your game so that we can look in to it.

If you enable ads, you will need to enable those options. If you are a Free users, we enable ads for you. In your case, as a Pro user, we build a version that has no ad frameworks and therefore you should not need to check anything on upload to Apple. If you do, you are either using an older version of GameSalad where we enabled ads by default, or something is wrong and we'll need that publishing link to help diagnose it.

Thanks!

Sorry bout that...for some reason I did not see that you were a pro member.
