Recommendations make it easy for you to improve performance and find new opportunities in a changing market. However, Google has heard feedback from many of you that reviewing and implementing recommendations can be time consuming. To help you optimize your campaigns more efficiently, you now have the option to apply recommendations automatically.
By turning on auto-apply, Google will apply recommendations of your choice as new opportunities come up. You can choose from over 17 recommendations to apply automatically. You can change these selections or turn them off at any time.
You'll be able to see both when and how many times these recommendations have been applied in the "History" tab. This makes it easy for you to keep track of the changes being made in your account.
