  • Hi! I got a AdMob wearning that content is hiding ads in one of my apps.

    I didnt update it for about a year and thought it may be cause the mobile advert plugin was outdated.

    I opened the project in the latest stable C3 version and made a new debug build but I'm still unable to see the ads. Any idea why it's no longer working? It works in my other apps so I dont know what it could be.

    I used this simple code for the Ads (plugin properties are set to app and publisher ID)

    + System: On start of layout

    ----+ MobileAdvert: [X] is showing banner

    ----+ System: Is ShowAds (True by default, false if IAP item is bought)

    -----> MobileAdvert: Create banner advert "ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxx/x" size: Smart portrait position: bottom show: true

    ----+ MobileAdvert: [X] is interstitial loaded

    ----+ System: Is ShowAds

    -----> MobileAdvert: Create interstitial advert "ca-app-pub-xxxx/xx" show: false

  • I tried debugging again and opened the console in chrome and got some ad errors.

    Is this a problem with the plugin or admob not serving ads? But they sent me a warning that ads are not showing in the app. Ashley

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • I launched the app a few times and got a test ad! But it vanished again. Any idea why?

    In about 20 tries I got an ad 2 times.

  • Tried to enable and disable Test mode for Mobile Ads but even in testmode no ads are shown. Testmode should work even if ad serving is limited, right?

  • If there is an error loading an ad, my best guess is there is an issue on the AdMob side. Maybe you should contact them about it.

  • Just a random tip

    Try exporting the app as "no minification"

  • Thanks, seems it was a Google problem. After submitting a new version built with latest C3 version and requesting someone to check it (which takes usually 1 week) banners showed up again after only a few hours.

    But I don't know why I get a warning for breaking rules when they break something. :/

    I use the small minification option usually.

    Hey Bl4ckSh33p when you say you 'requested someone to check' your apk, do you mean you sbmitted your apk to Google support, for example via this form:
