App open ads

App open ads are displayed using the IAppOpenAdService service. The service is registered by the plugin and can be either injected or retrieved from the service provider as follows:

var appOpenAdService = IPlatformApplication.Current.Services.GetService<IAppOpenAdService>();

Once you grab hold of the service instance, the next step is to preload the app open ad. You can do so by calling the PrepareAd method. You can pass your adUnitId as a parameter, or call it without any parameters to use the configured AdConfig.DefaultAppOpenAdUnitId. After the ad is prepared, simply call ShowAd() to display the app open ad.

Interface

public interface IAppOpenAdService
{
    IOpenAppAd CreateAd(string adUnitId = null);

    void PrepareAd(string adUnitId = null);

    void ShowAd();
}

Methods

PrepareAd

void PrepareAd(string adUnitId = null)

Preloads an app open ad using the provided adUnitId. If no adUnitId is provided, it will use configured default - AdConfig.DefaultAppOpenAdUnitId.

ShowAd

void ShowAd()

Displays the app openad which was prepared when PrepareAd was called. If no ad was prepared, nothing will be shown.

CreateAd

IAppOpenAd CreateAd(string adUnitId = null)

Creates an app open ad instance which you can use to preload and show later on. This enables you to preload multiple app open ads at the same time, using different ad unit IDs. If no adUnitId is provided, it will use configured default - AdConfig.DefaultAppOpenAdUnitId.
