Interstitial (inline Video) delay call onAdDismissedFullScreenContent method

When closing the Interstitial Ad (Inline Video) there is a 2-3 seconds delay before calling onAdDismissedFullScreenContent method (previously onAdClosed). This bug affects only Inline Video ads. Other interstitial formats (Text, image, and rich media) work fine without delay but when an Interstitial Inline Video ad is dismissed/closed there's a delay of about 2-3 seconds to call onAdDismissedFullScreenContent.

This can be reproduced on any App (AdMob sample app too). It was tested on Android API 28/29/30 with targetSDK 28/29/30 using any AdMob SDK 17+ up to 20.2.0 The only condition to reproduce the bug is to have displayed an Inline Video Ad (the exact same kind as the attached screenshot). It doesn't affect other kinds of Video interstitial ads (or non-video ads).

This bug has been going on for a couple of years already: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-android-examples/issues/147 https://groups.google.com/g/google-admob-ads-sdk/c/eW7-7N9e6UA https://groups.google.com/g/google-admob-ads-sdk/c/lzhZPj8GCWI

Faced same issue. It's been years already and nobody seems to care about it. I just broke my app due to this delay after enabling video option in my interstial ad unit.

I am also facing this same issue. And due to this, I need to add a dummy view to disable user interaction while ad showing.

And in issue tracker they are asking about just charles proxy and claimed that it is not happening in sample app. 😅🙄

They really have no idea what they are doing or just lie to us

I am using a workaround for this issue and is making my code cluttered. They don’t seem to care.
