Admob breaks after clicking on a playing rewarded video ad and then trying to resume game

Open roguedev1 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

MTAdmob [Android] works fine when user does not click on a rewarded video ad, but breaks when trying to resume game after clicking on the ad.

  • If a user watches an entire rewarded video ad, they can accept the reward, Admob closes, and then the user can continue using the app as normal.

  • If a user decides to close a rewarded video ad before the video has finished showing, without clicking on it, Admob closes, and then the user can continue using the app as normal.

  • However, if a user watches a rewarded video ad and then attempts to view the site connected with the ad, upon returning to the app, a user can either choose to resume playing the video (they can watch until 0 seconds), or close the video. In both cases, the video will then turn into a black screen with no way for a user to continue. The app does not crash, but the user is prevented from continuing and must shut down the app to resume. When the user returns, they have received the reward for watching the video.

The logic for closing/resuming the app works ok under normal circumstances, the issue is with Admob.

I could not see a function in the MTAdmob library for manually closing a rewarded ad, this would help to mitigate the issue since if a user clicks the ad then they should receive the reward without having to watch the rest of the video. There is an Event handler (OnRewardedVideoAdLeftApplication) but there's no function to actually do anything with this Event e.g. close the ad.

I am using the latest version, 1.6.9
