Flurry SDK was completely removed from AppYet Template v4.0.25 which was released Dec 1st, 2022

1. Make sure you discard/delete all previous testing releases from versions older than v4.0.25

2. Double Check: Go "App Bundle explorer" to make sure you have just one ACTIVE release, make sure you don't have 2 or more active releases

3. Create a new Production Release from AppYet Template v4.0.25 apk or bundle, when you create your release, make sure in the section "Previous release", it shows "No app bundles from your previous release will be included in this release"

4. Publish your new Release, during publishing, you will get a warning again about Flurry SDK Policy violation, which you can ignore since the warning is against the older version of your release.

Issue found: Violation of Inappropriate Ads policy​

Your app contains content that isn’t compliant with the Inappropriate Ads policy. This policy requires that ad content shown in your app is appropriate for your app’s content rating. We found that your app’s ad rating permits viewable ad content for higher ages than your app’s rating or category allows.
Issue details
We found an issue in the following area(s):
  • In-app experience: Please see attached screenshot IN_APP_EXPERIENCE-1089.png
  • Application Ratings: Please see attached screenshot APP_RATINGS-4226.png
Additionally, follow these steps to bring your app into compliance:
  • Review the Inappropriate Adspolicy for information about the policy and visual examples of common violations.
  • Make sure that your ad services and ad content filtering are set appropriately for the content rating of your app.
    • Check with your ad service provider to make sure the advertising campaigns you selected will only show content that matches your app’s content rating.
    • If you use AdMob, review the AdMob Help Center article for steps about how to use blocking controls and set the right ad content rating.

About the Inappropriate Ads policy​

The ads and their associated offers (for example, the ad is promoting the download of another app) shown within your app must be appropriate for the content rating of your app, even if the content by itself is otherwise compliant with our policies. For example, ads that show mature content or services cannot be served in apps that have a content rating for younger audiences.

Your reported issue not related to AppYet App itself, rather seems something to do with the Play Store setup related to Content Ratings, Please open your Goolge Play Console, and open your App, and navigate to the "App Content" and review your setup to make sure meet the Google Policy requirements

Your app might be part of previous auto upgrade build, and you only have 24 hours to download after that build. If you not sure what was template version in production, I would recommend you rebuild your app, and download your latest version and republish your app

Also Release configuration make sure the Roll-out percentage is set to 100%. At the end, Send your release for review


Note:
During your release, you will still get a warning from Google Play Console about Flurry SDK, Pay attention to the version the warning is targeting, it is your existing older version, NOT the version you are trying to release.


This is the warning you get from creating a production release. you can see the warning is against version 4047

And new Bundle version is 4071

What date was the app built by AppYet that is on Play Store? If it is built before Dec 1st, 2022, then it is older version than 4.0.25.
What is your package name?
Also, please post rejected and removed reason detail, we will look into it further
