Does Appery incorporate the Advertising Identifier (IDFA) within its iOS Build?

[Maurice]

Hi Appery,

I am about to submit my app and there were two questions I needed clarification on. The first I submitted as another topic about encryption, this question has to do with the Advertising Identifier (IDFA).

When I build my app does it contain the Advertising Identifier? If I have adverts within the app do I need to include it if it is not there?

Here is the text from the App Store:

"Does this app use the Advertising Identifier (IDFA)?
The Advertising Identifier (IDFA) is a unique ID for each iOS device and is the only way to offer targeted ads. Users can choose to limit ad targeting on their iOS device."

"Yes/No"

The warning below is what is presented to me too:

"Ensure that you select the correct answer for Advertising Identifier (IDFA) usage. If your app does contain the IDFA and you select No, the binary will be permanently rejected and you will have to submit a different binary."

I do not have any adverts linked to an advertising company like Google's Admob (couldn't get it to work), but they are manually set to navigate to adverts on webpages. So is this what is being requested?

Your help would be much appreciated.

Hello -

By default Appery.io project does not use Advertising identifier -- the general answer here would be "No".

Hi Illya,

Thanks for this response too. I did read somewhere that google analytics api may be considered as an IDFA but I will take your word for it and select no.

Thanks again for the swift response and hopefully my app will be up and running soon.
