SDK 迁移

本页介绍了 iOS 版 Google 移动广告 SDK 现行版本和旧版本的迁移。11.0.0 版预计将于 2024 年 1 月发布。

从 SDK 版本 v10 迁移到 v11

Minimum deployment target

The minimum deployment target has been increased to iOS 12.

Minimum Xcode version

The minimum supported Xcode version has been increased to 15.1.

Ads stop serving on iOS 12

Google Mobile Ads SDK version 11.0.0 serves ads only on devices running iOS 13 and higher.

Removed GoogleAppMeasurement dependency

In version 11.0.0, the dependency on GoogleAppMeasurement has been removed. This dependency that powered the user metrics toggle in AdMob will be discontinued in early 2024. To continue collecting user metrics in AdMob, link your AdMob app to Firebase and integrate the Google Analytics for Firebase SDK into your app.

Changes to full-screen ad presentation

The following changes affect the various ad formats:

  • App open
  • Interstitial
  • Rewarded
  • Rewarded interstitial

The view controller parameter in -canPresentFromRootViewController:error: and -presentFromRootViewController: is nullable. If nil is passed, the ad is presented from the topmost view controller in the view controller hierarchy.

Methods removed

The following methods are removed.

v11.0.0 Type Method Notes
GADAppOpenAd load(withAdUnitID adUnitID: String, request: GADRequest?, orientation: UIInterfaceOrientation) Use load(withAdUnitID adUnitID: String, request: GADRequest?) instead.
GADMediationBannerAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() No replacement.
GADMediationInterstitialAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() No replacement.
GADMediationNativeAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() No replacement.
GADMediationRewardedAdEventDelegate didRewardUser(with reward: GADAdReward) Use didRewardUser() instead.
GADMediatedUnifiedNativeAdNotificationSource mediatedNativeAdWillLeaveApplication(_ mediatedNativeAd: GADMediatedUnifiedNativeAd) No replacement.
GADRequestConfiguration setSameAppKeyEnabled(_ enabled: Bool) Use setPublisherFirstPartyIDEnabled(_ enabled: Bool) instead.
tagForUnderAge(ofConsent underAgeOfConsent: Bool) Use the tagForUnderAgeOfConsent property instead.
tag(forChildDirectedTreatment childDirectedTreatment: Bool) Use the tagForChildDirectedTreatment property instead.

Properties removed

The following properties are removed.

v11.0.0 Class Property Notes
GADMediationAdConfiguration hasUserLocation No replacement.
userLatitude
userLongitude
userLocationAccuracyInMeters
childDirectedTreatment Use GADMobileAds.sharedInstance.requestConfiguration.tagForChildDirectedTreatment instead.
GADResponseInfo adNetworkClassName Use adNetworkClassName from loadedAdNetworkResponseInfo instead.

Removed GADAdFormatUnknown

Removed GADAdFormatUnknown with no replacement.

Changes to logging SDK version

Version 11.0.0 removes sdkVersion. To log the Google Mobile Ads SDK version, use versionNumber instead.

Version 10.0.0

GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().sdkVersion

Version 11.0.0

GADGetStringFromVersionNumber(GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().versionNumber)

Changes to GADAdLoader error handling

Starting in version 11.0.0, GADAdLoader doesn't make an ad request if its delegate doesn't conform to the requested ad types' delegate protocol. Previously, it failed after the ad request was made.

Changes to testing behavior

See the table which shows the updated conditions for when the following properties return true.

Class Property
GADMediationAdConfiguration isTestRequest
GADCustomEventRequest isTesting
v10.0.0 v11.0.0
  • The device is explicitly declared as a test device in testDeviceIdentifiers.
  • The device is explicitly declared as a test device in testDeviceIdentifiers.
  • The device is a simulator.
  • The device is explicitly declared as a test device in the AdMob UI.

从 v9 迁移到 v10

Ads stop serving on iOS 11

Google Mobile Ads SDK version 10.0.0 serves ads only on devices running iOS 12 and higher.

Upgrading to Google Mobile Ads SDK version 10.0.0 will not break your app on iOS 11 and iOS 10 devices, however, no ads will be served on those devices.

Building with bitcode is no longer supported

Disabling bitcode in your mobile apps is now required to integrate the Google Mobile Ads SDK.

Types removed

Type Notes
GADGender No replacement.
GADMRewardBasedVideoAdNetworkAdapterProtocol All rewarded mediation adapters listed on Choose Networks have stopped using these protocols for over a year. Use GADMediationAdapter for mediation and custom events.
GADMRewardBasedVideoAdNetworkConnectorProtocol

Properties removed

The following properties are removed with no replacement.

v10.0.0 Class Property
GADMediationAdRequest userBirthday
userGender
userHasLocation
userLatitude
userLongitude
userLocationAccuracyInMeters
userLocationDescription
GADCustomEventRequest userHasLocation
userLatitude
userLongitude
userLocationAccuracyInMeters
userLocationDescription

从 v8 迁移到 v9

Ads stop serving on iOS 10

The minimum iOS version the Google Mobile Ads SDK version 9.0.0 supports is iOS 11.

Upgrading to Google Mobile Ads SDK version 9.0.0 will not break your app on iOS 10 devices, however, no ads will be served on those devices.

Stricter enforcement of status bar controls

Starting from version 9.0.0, when you present full-screen format ads, your app should ensure that the ads are able to control the presentation of the status bar. You will see an error message in the logs if you fail to do so.

Depending on the specific layout of view controllers in your app, you might not need to make any changes to ensure this. Consider whether you need to set the childViewControllerForStatusBarHidden property on your ad's rootViewController.

Rename adDidPresentFullScreenContent: to adWillPresentFullScreenContent:

There is no behavior change. The delegate method is invoked right before the ad is about to be presented, so the new method name better reflects its functionality.

Remove location setting API on GADRequest

- (void)setLocationWithLatitude:longitude:accuracy: has been deleted from GADRequest since location data is not used by Google to target ads. Use third-party APIs to provide the information to third-party ad networks if required.

Custom event interfaces deprecation

Custom events enable publishers using AdMob Mediation to add waterfall mediation for an ad network that isn't one of the supported ad networks.

All the custom event protocols are deprecated. Instead, use the existing GADMediationAdapter and GADMediationAdEventDelegate protocols to achieve the same functionalities. This change improves clarity and enables you to create custom events for rewarded ads and interscroller ads which were not previously available.

从 v7 迁移到 v8

Google Mobile Ads SDK version 8.0.0 introduces a few major changes as well as some renames and removals of APIs.

Full-screen format API updates

Starting with version 8.0.0, interstitial and rewarded ads share a generic full screen ad style for more consistency. These new full-screen ad APIs have two major distinctions from the version 7 full-screen ad APIs:

  1. Static class method load.

    The previous approach to load/show a full-screen ad is as follows:

    1. Create an ad object instance and hold a reference to it.
    2. Assign a delegate that handles load and show callbacks.
    3. Load an ad.
    4. Check if ad is loaded using isReady.
    5. Show the ad.

    In version 8, the approach changes slightly. Load callbacks are no longer part of a delegate. Instead, they're passed into the load method as a completion handler:

    1. Call a static load method on the ad class and provide a load completion handler.
    2. In the load completion callback, keep a reference to the loaded ad that's returned.
    3. Assign a delegate that handles show callbacks.
    4. Show the ad.

    The new approach provides these benefits:

    • You won't ever have a reference to an ad that is not loaded.
    • You don't have to hold onto an ad object while it's loading.

  2. Consistent ad events.

    Event type Existing API v8 API
    Load events GADInterstitialDelegate or GADRewardedAdDelegate GADInterstitialAdLoadCompletionHandler or GADRewardedAdLoadCompletionHandler
    Presentation events GADFullScreenContentDelegate

    Previously, to listen for any ad events, you would register a class that implements the GADInterstitialDelegate protocol to an interstitial's delegate property, or register a class that implements the GADRewardedAdDelegate protocol to a rewarded ad's delegate property depending on which format you're using. This same delegate had methods related to both the loading and presentation life cycle of an ad.

    With version 8, load and presentation events are separate. You can now register a GADFullScreenContentDelegate any time prior to showing an ad instead of being required to set a single delegate prior to loading the ad. Ad load events, which are specific to each format, move to a single load completion handler passed in the load method.

Interstitial

Load ad

The code snippets below show you how to load an interstitial ad and listen for events when the ad succeeds or fails to load.

v7

Swift

import GoogleMobileAds
import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, GADInterstitialDelegate {

  var interstitial: GADInterstitial!

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    interstitial = GADInterstitial(adUnitID: "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/4411468910")
    interstitial.delegate = self
    let request = GADRequest()
    interstitial.load(request)
  }

  /// Tells the delegate an ad request succeeded.
  func interstitialDidReceiveAd(_ ad: GADInterstitial) {
    print("Interstitial ad loaded.")
  }

  /// Tells the delegate an ad request failed.
  func interstitial(_ ad: GADInterstitial, didFailToReceiveAdWithError error: GADRequestError) {
    print("Interstitial ad failed to load with error: \(error.localizedDescription)")
  }
}

Objective-C

@import GoogleMobileAds;
@import UIKit;

@interface ViewController () 

@property(nonatomic, strong) GADInterstitial *interstitial;

@end

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
  [super viewDidLoad];
  self.interstitial = [[GADInterstitial alloc]
      initWithAdUnitID:@"ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/4411468910"];
  self.interstitial.delegate = self;
  GADRequest *request = [GADRequest request];
  [self.interstitial loadRequest:request];
}

/// Tells the delegate an ad request succeeded.
- (void)interstitialDidReceiveAd:(GADInterstitial *)ad {
  NSLog(@"Insterstitial ad loaded.");
}

/// Tells the delegate an ad request failed.
- (void)interstitial:(GADInterstitial *)ad
    didFailToReceiveAdWithError:(GADRequestError *)error {
  NSLog(@"Interstitial ad failed to load with error: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
}

                          return
                        }
                        self.interstitial = ad
                        self.interstitial.fullScreenContentDelegate = self

Display ad and handle reward

Rewarded ads require you to handle the event when a user earns a reward. With version 7 of the GADRewardedAd API, you implement rewardedAd:userDidEarnReward: as part of the GADRewardedAdDelegate protocol. For version 8, you implement the GADUserDidEarnRewardHandler in order to present the ad.

v7

Swift

func showRewardedAd() {
  ...
  if rewardedAd.isReady {
    rewardedAd.present(fromRootViewController: self delegate:self)
  } else {
    print("Ad wasn't ready")
  }
}

/// Tells the delegate that the user earned a reward.
func rewardedAd(_ rewardedAd: GADRewardedAd, userDidEarnReward: GADAdReward) {
  // TODO: Reward the user.
}

Objective-C

- (void)showRewardedAd: {
  ...
  if (self.rewardedAd.isReady) {
    [self.rewardedAd presentFromRootViewController:self delegate:self];
  } else {
    NSLog(@"Ad wasn't ready");
  }
}

/// Tells the delegate that the user earned a reward.
- (void)rewardedAd:(GADRewardedAd *)rewardedAd userDidEarnReward:(GADAdReward *)reward {
  // TODO: Reward the user.
}

v8

Swift

func showRewardedAd() {
  ...
  if let ad = rewardedAd {
      ad.present(fromRootViewController: self,
               userDidEarnRewardHandler: {
                 let reward = ad.adReward
                 // TODO: Reward the user.
               }
      )
  } else {
    print("Ad wasn't ready")
  }
}

Objective-C

- (void)showRewardedAd: {
  ...
  if (self.rewardedAd) {
    [self.rewardedAd presentFromRootViewController:self
                          userDidEarnRewardHandler:^ {
      GADAdReward *reward = self.rewardedAd.adReward;
      // TODO: Reward the user.
    }];
  } else {
    NSLog(@"Ad wasn't ready");
  }
}

Presentation ad events

With the GADRewardedAd API you pass a GADRewardedAdDelegate to the method that presents the ad. With the GADRewardedAd API, you set a GADFullscreenContentDelegate as a property on the ad prior to presenting the ad.

v7

Swift

func showRewardedAd() {
  ...
  if rewardedAd.isReady {
    rewardedAd.present(fromRootViewController: self delegate:self)
  } else {
    print("Ad wasn't ready")
  }
}

/// Tells the delegate that the rewarded ad was presented.
func rewardedAdDidPresent(_ rewardedAd: GADRewardedAd) {
  print("Rewarded ad presented.")
}
/// Tells the delegate that the rewarded ad was dismissed.
func rewardedAdDidDismiss(_ rewardedAd: GADRewardedAd) {
  print("Rewarded ad dismissed.")
}
/// Tells the delegate that the rewarded ad failed to present.
func rewardedAd(_ rewardedAd: GADRewardedAd, didFailToPresentWithError error: Error) {
  print("Rewarded ad failed to present with error: \(error.localizedDescription).")
}

Objective-C

- (void)showRewardedAd: {
  ...
  if (self.rewardedAd.isReady) {

Legacy GADRewardedBasedVideoAd API removal

The newer GADRewardedAd API was first introduced back in March 2019 and has been the preferred rewarded API for over 18 months. It has had more enhancements compared to the legacy GADRewardedBasedVideoAd API, including the ability to load more than one rewarded ad at a time.

The legacy GADRewardedBasedVideoAd API is removed in SDK version 8.0.0.

Smart banner deprecation in favor of adaptive banner

Smart banner ads are deprecated in favor of adaptive banner ads. Adaptive banners provide superior performance and more flexibility in setting ad width. If you prefer to continue using full-width banners, that can still be done using adaptive banner, as shown in the following code snippet:

Swift

class ViewController: UIViewController {

  override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidAppear(animated)
    // Note: The safe area is not known until viewWillAppear.
    let adSize = getFullWidthAdaptiveAdSize()
  }

  func getFullWidthAdaptiveAdSize() -> GADAdSize {
    // Here safe area is taken into account, hence the view frame is used after the
    // view has been laid out.
    let frame = { () -> CGRect in
      if #available(iOS 11.0, *) {
        return view.frame.inset(by: view.safeAreaInsets)
      } else {
        return view.frame
      }
    }()
    return GADCurrentOrientationAnchoredAdaptiveBannerAdSizeWithWidth(frame.size.width)
  }
}

Objective-C

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
  [super viewDidAppear:animated];
  // Note: The safe area is not known until viewWillAppear.
  GADAdSize adSize = [self getFullWidthAdaptiveAdSize];
}

- (GADAdSize)getFullWidthAdaptiveAdSize {
  CGRect frame = self.view.frame;
  // Here safe area is taken into account, hence the view frame is used after
  // the view has been laid out.
  if (@available(iOS 11.0, *)) {
    frame = UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(self.view.frame, self.view.safeAreaInsets);
  }
  return GADCurrentOrientationAnchoredAdaptiveBannerAdSizeWithWidth(frame.size.width);
}

@end

Leave application callback removal

The willLeaveApplication callback for all ad formats has been removed in favor of the applicationDidEnterBackground: and sceneDidEnterBackground: methods. Using OS-level APIs notify you whenever users leave your app, regardless of whether or not it is due to an ad interaction.

Note that the willLeaveApplication callback was never intended to be an ad click handler, and relying on this callback to report clicks did not produce an accurate metric. For example, a click on the AdChoices icon that launched an external browser invoked the callback but did not count a click.
