SDK 迁移

本页将介绍 iOS 版 Google 移动广告 SDK 的现行版本和以往版本的迁移。版本 11.0.0 预计将于 2024 年 1 月发布。

从 SDK 版本 v10 迁移到 v11

部署目标下限

最低部署目标已提高至 iOS 12。

最低 Xcode 版本

支持的最低 Xcode 版本已提高至 15.1。

广告停止在 iOS 12 设备上投放

Google 移动广告 SDK 版本 11.0.0 仅在搭载 iOS 13 及更高版本的设备上投放广告。

移除了 GoogleAppMeasurement 依赖项

在版本 11.0.0 中，移除了对 GoogleAppMeasurement 的依赖。这个为 AdMob 中用户指标切换开关提供支持的依赖项将于 2024 年初停用。如需继续在 AdMob 中收集用户指标，请将您的 AdMob 应用关联到 Firebase，并将 Google Analytics for Firebase SDK 集成到您的应用中。

全屏广告展示方式的变化

以下变更会影响各种广告格式：

  • 开屏广告
  • 插页式广告
  • 已奖励
  • 插页式激励广告

-canPresentFromRootViewController:error: 和 -presentFromRootViewController: 中的视图控制器参数可为 null。如果传递 nil，则广告会从视图控制器层次结构中的最顶层视图控制器展示。

移除的方法

系统会移除以下方法。

v11.0.0 类型 方法 备注
GADAppOpenAd load(withAdUnitID adUnitID: String, request: GADRequest?, orientation: UIInterfaceOrientation) 请改用 load(withAdUnitID adUnitID: String, request: GADRequest?)。
GADMediationBannerAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() 无替代项。
GADMediationInterstitialAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() 无替代项。
GADMediationNativeAdEventDelegate willBackgroundApplication() 无替代项。
GADMediationRewardedAdEventDelegate didRewardUser(with reward: GADAdReward) 请改用 didRewardUser()。
GADMediatedUnifiedNativeAdNotificationSource mediatedNativeAdWillLeaveApplication(_ mediatedNativeAd: GADMediatedUnifiedNativeAd) 无替代项。
GADRequestConfiguration setSameAppKeyEnabled(_ enabled: Bool) 请改用 setPublisherFirstPartyIDEnabled(_ enabled: Bool)。

tag(forChildDirectedTreatment childDirectedTreatment: Bool) 请改用 tagForChildDirectedTreatment 属性。

已移除的属性

已移除以下属性。

v11.0.0 中的类 媒体资源 备注
GADMediationAdConfiguration hasUserLocation 无替代项。
userLatitude
userLongitude
userLocationAccuracyInMeters
childDirectedTreatment 请改用 GADMobileAds.sharedInstance.requestConfiguration.tagForChildDirectedTreatment。
GADResponseInfo adNetworkClassName 请改用 loadedAdNetworkResponseInfo 中的 adNetworkClassName。

移除了 GADAdFormatUnknown

移除了 GADAdFormatUnknown，且无替代项。

日志记录 SDK 版本的更改

11.0.0 版移除了 sdkVersion。如需记录 Google 移动广告 SDK 版本，请改用 versionNumber。

版本 11.0.0

GADGetStringFromVersionNumber(GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().versionNumber)

对 GADAdLoader 错误处理方式的更改

从 11.0.0 版开始，如果 GADAdLoader 的 delegate 不符合所请求广告类型的委托协议，则不会发出广告请求。之前，该调用在发出广告请求后就会失败。

测试行为变更

请参阅表格，了解以下属性何时返回 true 的更新条件。

类 媒体资源
GADMediationAdConfiguration isTestRequest
GADCustomEventRequest isTesting
v10.0.0 v11.0.0
  • 在 testDeviceIdentifiers 中将设备明确声明为测试设备。
  • 在 testDeviceIdentifiers 中将设备明确声明为测试设备。
  • 设备是一个模拟器。
  • 在 AdMob 界面中将设备明确声明为测试设备。

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

广告停止在 iOS 10 设备上投放

Google 移动广告 SDK 版本 9.0.0 支持的最低 iOS 版本是 iOS 11。

升级到 Google 移动广告 SDK 版本 9.0.0 不会影响您的应用在 iOS 10 设备上的行为，但广告不会在这些设备上投放。

状态栏控制规定的执行更严格

从版本 9.0.0 开始，当您展示全屏格式的广告时，您的应用应确保广告能够控制状态栏的显示。如果您未能这样做，将会在日志中看到一条错误消息。

根据应用中视图控制器的具体布局，您可能无需做出任何更改即可确保实现这一点。考虑您是否需要在广告的 rootViewController 上设置 childViewControllerForStatusBarHidden 属性。

将 adDidPresentFullScreenContent: 重命名为 adWillPresentFullScreenContent:

行为无变化。委托方法在广告即将展示之前调用，因此新的方法名称可以更好地体现其功能。

移除了 GADRequest 上的 Location Settings API

- (void)setLocationWithLatitude:longitude:accuracy: 已从 GADRequest 中删除，因为 Google 不使用位置数据来定位广告。如果需要，请使用第三方 API 向第三方广告联盟提供该信息。

弃用了自定义事件接口

借助自定义事件，使用 AdMob 中介的发布商可以为支持的广告联盟以外的广告联盟添加广告瀑布流中介。

所有自定义事件协议均已弃用。请改用现有的 GADMediationAdapter 和 GADMediationAdEventDelegate 协议来实现相同的功能。这项变更让表达更加清晰明确，还可让您为之前不可用的激励广告和插页式滚显广告创建自定义事件。

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-3940256099942544/44118910")
    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-3940256099942544/44118910"];
  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]);
}

v8

Swift

import GoogleMobileAds
import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, GADFullScreenContentDelegate {

  var interstitial: GADInterstitialAd?

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    let request = GADRequest()
    GADInterstitialAd.load(withAdUnitID:"ca-app-pub-8123415297019784/4985798738",
                                request: request,
                      completionHandler: { (ad, error) in
                        if let error = error {
                          print("Failed to load interstitial ad 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).")

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.
