Latest version: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/firebase-admob-v3-00.144798/#content

iAdMob v1.10 adds support for interstitial ads (full screen ads).

In order to show an interstitial ad you need to first request an ad and wait for the Ready event.
If Success is true then there is an ad ready to be displayed. You can then call iad.Show(Page) to show it.
You can also call iad.RequestAd again to request a new ad.

Note that you can show test ads by calling:
B4X:
iad.SetTestDevices(Array("121212121212")) 'id that is displayed in the logs
The ready event:
B4X:
Sub iad_Ready (Success As Boolean)
   If Success Then
     Log("iad is ready.")
     iad.Show(Page1)
   Else
     Log("Failed to load full screen ad: " & LastException)
   End If
End Sub

Note that you can show the ad after this event. This event only means that there is an ad ready to be displayed.

Library installation

iAdMob is an internal library now. It is preinstalled with the IDE.

If you are using a local Mac builder you need to download the new SDK and copy GoogleMobileAds.framework to the Libs folder: www.b4x.com/b4i/files/libGoogleAdMobAds.a.zip

Update:

Starting from Google Maps Ads SDK v7.42.0 it is required to add these lines:
B4X:
#PlistExtra: <key>GADIsAdManagerApp</key><true/>
#AdditionalLib: libsqlite3.dylib
#AdditionalLib: libz.dylib
#AdditionalLib: WebKit.framework

@Erel ,

Can we stop the refresh of a banner view?

I don't see .pause or .resume like in the android lib.

Use the attached h file. The updated file will also be included in v2.80 Mac builder.
Hi Erel,
I am trying to use Admob SDK v7.9.1 and the iAdmob Lib v1.32. I also downloaded the h file and copied it to the internal libraries folder.

I get the following error. I'm using the remote builder. Any ideas?

B4X:
/Users/administrator/Documents/Libs/iAdMob.h:3:9: fatal error: module 'GoogleMobileAds' not found
@import GoogleMobileAds;

Are you using a local builder?

Have you copied GoogleMobileAds.framework to the Libs folder?

I am using the remote builder. Yes, I copied GoogleMobileAds.framework to the Libs folder. The first time I did it, I left the old version in place. When that didn't work, I deleted the old folder and re-copied it.

The version of iAdMob included with B4i 2.80 is 1.33. Maybe you have copied an older version to the internal libraries folder?

I did copy the 1.32 over it. Just now, I reinstalled b4i. I verified that the version is 1.33 of iAdmob. I get the same error. I have included the full error below in case it might help.
