exclusion from PAX campaign.

Lisa: 00:00:53

we all know now, this placement exclusion option is available in most of the pax

Lisa: 00:00:58

campaigns in most of the accountants.

Lisa: 00:01:00

If this option is available in your PMAX account, then you can follow the steps

Lisa: 00:01:05

to exclude apps from your Pmax campaign.

Lisa: 00:01:07

So I'm gonna walk you through how exactly we can go about it.

Lisa: 00:01:10

we'll click on our Pax campaign, then we will see this option, we

Lisa: 00:01:14

click on content option.

Lisa: 00:01:15

After clicking on content option, we can click on this pencil icon.

Lisa: 00:01:19

So once we click on this pencil icon, you will see these options.

Lisa: 00:01:22

Under browse, you will see the website, YouTube channel, YouTube

Lisa: 00:01:25

video apps, and app category.

Lisa: 00:01:27

So when we click on app category, you will see two categor.

Lisa: 00:01:30

At the app store and then Google Play.

Lisa: 00:01:33

So for now, we don't have any option to exclude apps in one go.

Lisa: 00:01:37

However, we have an option to select it one by one, maybe later.

Lisa: 00:01:41

We have that option to exclude all the apps in one go.

Lisa: 00:01:44

For now, I'm gonna select all these apps one by one.

Lisa: 00:01:47

this is how we have to do if we want to exclude apps from our Pay Max campaign.
