WHAT’S NEW IN THIS VERSION (4.4.0)
- Updated to UnityAds SDK 4.4.0
- Fix Bug that cause Interstitial and Rewarded Videos Not showing after The New UnityAds System was released. Or it was all my fault?.. I will never know! Hey don’t look at me that way, I’ll have to blame some one, or not!
- Added a new step to the AfterPrepareScript in case iOS build fail adding Pod file. (Hope this works for you… At least for me does…)
DESCRIPTION
This Cordova / PhoneGap plugin enables the integration of Unity Ads video ads into your cordova mobile games or apps in a way that both increases player engagement and puts more money in your pocket over the gamer’s lifetime. Unity Ads offers the highest Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) of any global rewarded video ad network.
PLUGIN BACKGROUND
A couple of years ago, and after a great mistake, I got banned from Google AdsMob network. After appels to the mercy of Google, explaining what happens… I remain banned for life. This put me on a very bad situation those days, with a very short list of good monetizing alternatives. This ends the day I learn about UnityAds
After the end of the UnityAds 1.x and 2.x Api era, I have to move forward and Implement UnityAds 3.x on my projects. Implement it on the Unity Game Engine was a breeze, But then I didn’t found any solutions to implement version 3.x on my html5, cordova, construct 2 or 3 projects. That my friends, makes this cordova plugin a reality. Oh well, it was basically, necessity!
FEUTURES
Platforms supported:
- iOS, via SDK v4.x.x (see Release Notes)
- Android, via Android SDK v4.x.x (see Release Notes)
Ad Types:
