This documentation is being shared in advance of upcoming age verification bills in applicable US states going into effect on January 1, 2026 in Texas. The Play Age Signals API (beta) will return live responses for applicable users and the Age signals page will be available in Play Console after this date.

Parents can revoke app approval for supervised users on Android devices using
the Google Family Link app. If app
approval is revoked for a supervised user, then that user will no longer be able
to use your app. Google Play will notify you about the revocation.
Before revocation
Google Play will include an installID in the Play Age Signals API (beta)
response per user per device. You can store this installID on your app's
backend server in anticipation of being notified about revoked app approvals.
After revocation
Google Play will notify you about revoked app approvals by listing the
installID that was included in the Play Age Signals API response for that
user on the Revoked app approvals tab on the Age signals page in
your Google Play Console. You can also download a list of the revoked app
approvals. Revoked install IDs are available for three months before being
deleted.
