About Auto optimize

Let Google run optimization experiments for you

You can let Google run experiments on your ad format settings and automatically apply any improvements to your revenue or user experience. You'll be notified when experiments finish, and you can undo any changes made, as long as the underlying settings haven't changed since the experiment ended. If you'd like to review the results of the experiments first, you can choose to apply improvements manually instead.
