How image upscaling enhancement works
Images must be scaled to the minimum size requirements to be used in a campaign (for example, a square image for a Demand Gen campaign should be at least 300 x 300 pixels). If an uploaded image is too small, the Google Ads built-in image upscaling enhancement uses AI to resize and sharpen the image to meet the requirements. When the upload is complete, a notification will appear that your image was upscaled to ensure that the ad looks good on all devices.
The upscaled image is saved in your Asset library to use later. Images previously uploaded to the asset library before this feature’s availability aren’t eligible for upscaling at this time.
Uploaded images that meet the minimum dimensions for at least one of your campaigns aren’t upscaled and appear alongside your other selected assets, as expected.
