Hey @kiranb47, it seems to be an intermittent issue with communication within the Google Mobile Ads SDK between the app and the Google Play services. Here's a similar thread in Google's github: googleads/googleads-mobile-unity#2455.

Also if you're using adaptive banners, I recommend updating your Google Ad Manager SDK to the latest 21.5.0.2, which has a fix for a potential crash.

it's not an intermittent issue, I get the same error for weeks on all devices using the latest versions:
implementation 'com.applovin:applovin-sdk:11.10.1'
implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:google-ad-manager-adapter:22.1.0.2'
implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:google-adapter:22.1.0.3'
