    Ads missing since: 26 September 2019
    Device: OnePlus 5
    Operating system version: Android 9 (OxygenOS 9.0.8)
    Country: Belgium
    Does you still have ads in other games?: Yes

    I believe this started somewhere after installing the new Android client. I've already tried uninstalling/reinstalling/resetting ad ID/reinstalling 7.1.1 to no avail...

    Any help appreciated!!


    EDIT: Ads are back since 30 September. Somewhere during the day, the button reappeared in my game, without any changes made on my end.

    Ads in other games? I only play ST Timelines. However, ads still work on another device (Android phone).

    When I left the country my ads worked again. Then when I came back ads were still working.
    Perhaps changing network provider “resets” ads being available?

    I just got a new iPhone 11 (iOS 13.1.2) and no ads will work. They never worked on this device, from the time STT was first installed. I do still have ads working in other apps (Tap Baseball 2019), and get involuntary pop-up ads within several others apps.

    Ads were still working on my iPhone 7, but only after resolving a similar issue by visiting another country (went to the US from Canada), as documented earlier in this thread.

    Does you still have ads in other games?: Sort of? I still have STT on my Note 4 where Ads work just fine, in fact been using that on WiFi to access bonus ad rewards. I have done as suggested in another thread. Uninstalled and reinstalled game and reset AD ID via Google settings. Still no ads on S7.

    Ads missing since: Over a month
    Device: Samsung Galaxy A50
    Operating System: Android
    Country: U.S.A.
    Do you still have ads in other games? I only play STT

    About 2 months ago I switched phones from an HTC Bolt to the Samsung Galaxy A50. After the switch over ads actually worked on my Samsung A50, but then about a month ago I uninstalled the STT app briefly and then re-installed it from the Google Play Store and ever since then I have not had ads of any kind.

    I just did the following:

    Downloaded the latest STT update...
    Disabled the Galaxy Store...
    Uninstalled STT, then re-installed...
    Downloaded a different game from the Google Play Store that has ads...

    Here is my report:

    Still no ads in STT, but the other game I downloaded from the Google Play Store (Pipe Art) had ads, so clearly ads still play on my phone, just not in the STT app.

    -EDIT-
    I just downloaded and played a different Tilting Point game (Horse Racing Manager 2019) and was able to watch ads in that game.

    My ads just returned as well. They were missing earlier today and I just checked and they were back!

    Missing again on moto one vision since DB maintenance. No ads since i hot my phone 2.5months ago. Since 2 weeks i did have ads, till today. Probably cause i tried tot reset the game data on my phone. I think they ads started working when i hot connecties tot a Holland wifi hotspot. While i live in Belgium. I think the
    problem is related to some ad networks. Ive seen other Reports here where ads started showing after crossing the country border. Smalle detail, 4g in Holland did not give me ads. 2 minutes connected to a Holland wifi hotspot and ads. Not a coincidence.
