I read:

"I am using Expo and my app doesn't properly load this custom native module I am trying to use"

Which is probably the most common expo issue logged in github repositories for custom native modules.

You need to read up on the Expo documentation related to building your app when you are integrating custom native modules and make absolutely completely totally certain you know all the subtleties around building your app on to your device such that the custom native module is included. A good word to search for is probably "prebuild", but from what I understand as a non-Expo user there are like 4 little subtle things that could go wrong with caching or wrong command invocation and such.

All I can tell you is that the module works and if you build it correctly into the app and then install that app on your device it will work

THIS WORK FOR ME

{
  "expo": {
      "extra": {
            "react-native-google-mobile-ads": {
              "androidAppId": "ca-app-pub-000000~999999",
              "iosAppId": "ca-app-pub-000000~999999",
              "userTrackingUsageDescription": "Este identificador será usado para entregar anúncios personalizados para você."
            }
          }
      },
    "react-native-google-mobile-ads": {
        "android_app_id": "ca-app-pub-000000~999999",
        "ios_app_id": "ca-app-pub-000000~999999"
      }
}

@FranklysG seems pretty strange that it needs to be duplicated? That's unexpected

yes, but if you look closely, the keys are different, only the values ​​are the same

I use EXPO with react-native-google-mobile-ads without problem.

No need to duplicated :

{
"expo": {
"extra": {
"react-native-google-mobile-ads": {
"androidAppId": "ca-app-pub-000000999999",
"iosAppId": "ca-app-pub-000000999999",
"userTrackingUsageDescription": "Este identificador será usado para entregar anúncios personalizados para você."
}
}
},
"react-native-google-mobile-ads": {
"android_app_id": "ca-app-pub-000000999999",
"ios_app_id": "ca-app-pub-000000999999"
}
}

This is not in extra

Expo users should make use of the Expo config plugin and read our docs:

// <project-root>/app.json
{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      [
        "react-native-google-mobile-ads",
        {
          "androidAppId": "ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxx~xxxxxxxx",
          "iosAppId": "ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxx~xxxxxxxx"
        }
      ]
    ]
  }
}

Thank you all for recomendations.
The real problem was with Expo Go, my workspace had problems with Pods.
Using EAS 'Development build' all is good.

npm install -g eas-cli
eas login
eas build:configure
eas build -p android --profile development || eas build -p ios --profile development
