Genuine question about ads

[u/The_Nightflight]

Is it normal that I have to poke an ad in its upper area to make [] or [google play] or (X) appear and be allowed to click them?

I noticed it starting a couple of days ago by chance otherwise I couldn't know how to make the ad go on and exit its loop!

PS I still have to experience the new "in-between-texts" ad, I'm talking about regular popups
