Bid modifiers let you adjust bids for a specific criterion without changing the
targeting of your campaign or ad group. For example, an ad group bid modifier
for mobile devices doesn't exclude impressions for other types of devices, but
it does let you raise or lower your bids for mobile impressions.
For more information on how bidding works and how to set bid modifiers, see ourBidding guide.
