広告の愚痴募集！

The relationship between casual games and ads is inseparable. I usually use an ad-blocking browser, but it doesn't work for apps. Now, there's a feature that diagnoses the system's effectiveness for ads, but this is automatically judged if you skip the ad as usual. For example, if a forced ad appears that wastes 120 seconds, and you endure watching it, the system will judge that 'this user wants to watch 120-second ads every time.' If you decide you don't want to see it based on the ad's tendency, you can close the app and make it as if you never saw the ad. Then the system will judge it as ineffective and start suppressing similar ads. The most unpleasant ads are probably those related to male genitalia. I naturally assumed they were targeting adult men, but it's been revealed that they were indiscriminately shown to women and children as well. For these kinds of ads, it's more important to signal your intention not to watch them beforehand than to report them. The system will adjust to stop delivering similar ads to users who repeatedly choose not to watch. If there's a reward, it might be worth enduring, but if you consistently refuse to watch even then, you can 'train' the system to reduce the number of 120-second ads. Comfortable advertising can be adjusted through this 'training'.

The close 'x' button is sometimes hard to see or completely invisible, which is a pain. It's just a thin white line in its usual spot, so depending on the background, it completely blends in, and I have to guess where it should be and try clicking around 😠

ASMR of chewing sounds, who even wants that? It's just gross. (I'll omit which app's ad it was)

The MIST PLAY ads often repeat the same content, which is kinda annoying ( ･᷄ὢ･᷅ ) Just once is enough! Actually, I'm already tolerating that one ad for treasure chests and stuff, so don't repeat it!!

Ads make it seem like you can cash out points, but it's actually a scam app where you can't. Even with over 5 million downloads, developers who provide scam apps are untrustworthy, so it's better not to download any of their other apps if they're the same developer.

I've installed and tried quite a few apps starting with Arrow~, but they are all scam apps that are completely different from the ads. It's likely they are collecting personal information (accounts, phone numbers, etc.), so you're better off not installing them. I don't think Google will do anything even if you report them. You have to protect yourself! For now, don't install any apps starting with Arrow~!!

Suspicious behavior and specifications have been confirmed in the following app on the Google Play Store, and we have reported it to Google. App Name: Arrow Shift Journey (Early Access) Developer Name: Irash Rashmitha 🚨 Points to Note Abuse of "Early Access Version" This app is released as "Early Access (under development)". Early access versions do not allow users to post or view reviews (ratings and comments), so even malicious apps cannot have their damage reports or critical comments seen by other users. Deception of in-game monetary rewards (point-based activities, cash back) While displays like "$0.72" and "Redeem" can be seen in screenshots, it is highly likely to be a fraudulent system where you cannot actually withdraw or cash out even if you play. Over 500,000 Downloads Many users have already downloaded it, but there are concerns about risks such as personal information leakage and excessive ad displays. 💡 How to Deal With It If you have already installed it, please uninstall it immediately.

The button is outside the frame and I can't press it 😭 What am I supposed to do? If I barely manage to press it, it goes inside 😱

Having to listen to BGM I'm not interested in is stressful 🥲︎ And it's a 1-minute ad, too 😇😇

Maybe the term 'scam ad' was too strong? It was a Kurashiru-like ad, and they told me to reconsider its placement.
