We’ve heard your requests for faster API access to Ads features available in the Google Ads UI. We will accelerate our launch timeline to have Google Ads API monthly releases, except for during the end of year holiday period.

We will increase the number of major releases from 3 per year to 4 per year. The remaining releases will be minor releases, only adding incremental new non-breaking features. We have also adjusted the sunset schedules to avoid extra version migrations that will burden the API developers. Each major release will now be available for one year after the release.

Release schedule for 2026

With the new timeline, the tentative release schedule for 2026 will be as shown in the following table. Please keep in mind that these dates are only estimates and may be adjusted going forward. Additionally, releases may be added, removed, or switched between major and minor versions.

Version	Planned Release Type*	Projected launch*	Projected sunset*
V23	Major	January 2026	February 2027
V23_1	Minor	February 2026	February 2027
V23_2	Minor	March 25, 2026	February 2027

In our latest #WeArePlay stories, we meet the founders building apps and games that power entrepreneurs and business owners around the world. From digitizing finances for micro-merchants in Bogotá to modernizing barbershops in New York, they are solving real-world challenges with intuitive apps.

Here are a few of our favorites:

Lluís and Man Hei’s app Treinta saves microbusiness owners 30 minutes a day by digitizing their sales, inventory, and cash flow.

Lluís Cañadell and Man Hei Lou, co-founders of Treinta
Bogotá, Colombia

After meeting at university, Lluís and Man Hei reunited to launch Treinta, an app inspired by Lluís’ experience with small businesses across Latin America. Named after the Spanish word for '30,' it helps microbusiness owners save at least 30 minutes a day by digitizing tasks like inventory, sales tracking, and cash flow management. With a recent expansion into the U.S. and upcoming AI tools, they are on track to reach their goal of 100,000 premium members by 2026.

Ying, Yong, Steve, and Oswald’s app Glints uses AI-powered recommendations to make hiring talent quick and easy.

Singapore, Singapore

High school friends Ying, Yong, Steve, and Oswald bonded over a shared vision to use technology for good, which led them to create Glints. What began as an internship portal in Singapore evolved into a dynamic hiring app after they saw an opportunity to tackle underemployment among young people in Indonesia. The app streamlines the job search with AI-powered recommendations and direct chat features, creating new career opportunities and helping companies find top talent. Their goal is to expand into more cities and become Indonesia's leading career app.

Dave and Songe’s app SQUIRE helps barbers manage and grow their business with an all-in-one platform.

Dave and Songe, co-founders of SQUIRE
New York, USA

Former lawyer Songe and finance expert Dave saw an opportunity to modernize the cash-reliant barbershop industry. With no prior experience, they took over a struggling Manhattan barbershop while developing SQUIRE. The app, which initially focused on appointment scheduling and digital payments, has since evolved into a complete management platform with Point of Sale, inventory tracking, and analytics — helping barbers run their businesses more efficiently. Now, they're adding more customization options and plan to expand SQUIRE's capabilities to continue elevating the modern barbershop experience.
