When I try to publish my app, I get the following message and cannot publish the app.

I already submitted to MCM network and I got an invitation from AdMob.

And I have done everything described in [this article](https://docs.thunkable.com/admob#review-guidelines), but I keep getting error messages and cannot publish the app.

@pacecode This message appears when you attempt to publish a project with AdMob components in it but your app has not yet been approved by the Thunkable AdMob team. Have you [submitted this app for approval](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf3DSZ_Uon406Demqt_pxJb1fiQRc6IT49CYf19bJr8VG40SQ/viewform?pli=1) yet? If you are not using AdMob in this project, you will want to remove all AdMob components before publishings.
