Android Question How to set .tagForChildDirectedTreatment(true) in Admob

[quimacama]

I've received this mail today:

Dear App Developer,

We’re contacting you because Google has received a report that your Android app(s) and package name(s) listed below may be child-directed for the purposes of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). You can visit the Federal Trade Commission’s website to learn more about COPPA.

In 30 days, we will take the action to treat your app(s) listed below as primarily child-directed for applicable Google services that may appear in your app(s). For instance, this means AdMob will take steps to disable interest-based advertising and remarketing ads for your app(s).

I have to indicate this to keep my adds

AdRequest request =newAdRequest.Builder()
    .tagForChildDirectedTreatment(true)
    .build();
adView.loadAd(request);

How I do it in B4A with FirebaseAdmob?

You can use this code:

  LoadAdWithTagForChildDirectedTreatment(adview1)
End Sub

Sub LoadAdWithTagForChildDirectedTreatment (ad As AdView)
   Dim jo As JavaObject
   jo.InitializeNewInstance("com.google.android.gms.ads.AdRequest$Builder", Null)
   jo = jo.RunMethodJO("tagForChildDirectedTreatment", Array(True)).RunMethod("build", Null)
   Dim jo2 As JavaObject = ad
   jo2.RunMethod("loadAd", Array(jo))
End Sub

Thanks Erel, my level of java is zero but I suppose that the last line is

jo2.RunMethod("loadAd",Array(jo))

What about Interstitials? And iAdmob?

 

[Erel]

The same code will work with InterstitialAd. Just change: ad As AdView to ad As Object.

And iAdmob?
