Google Mobile Ads v12.0.0

This release is a MAJOR version update with several breaking changes. See Migrate from v11 to v12 for more details.

Breaking changes:

• Updated the minimum supported Xcode version to 16.0.
• Updated Swift API names to follow the naming conventions from Apple’s Swift API Design Guidelines
• Many previously deprecated APIs have been removed.

Inline adaptive ads:

• Calling CGSizeFromGADAdSize(_:) with an inline adaptive ad size now returns 0 height until the Google Mobile Ads SDK returns an ad.

Swift 6 concurrency:

• Started incremental migration to support Swift 6’s concurrency model.

Custom targeting:

• The customTargeting dictionary on GADRequest now uses Any instead of String as the value type.

Google Mobile Ads v11.13.0

• Optimized video ad memory allocation to prevent resource overload, reducing AVErrorMediaServicesWereReset errors and improving playback stability.

Google Mobile Ads v11.12.0

• Fixed an issue where GADFullScreenContentDelegate methods were not called if the ad object was released before the ad finishes presenting.
• Open Measurement: Updated to OM SDK 1.5.2.

Google Mobile Ads v11.11.0

• Deprecated GADErrorMediationNoFill.
• Interscroller ads: Deprecated GADMediationInterscrollerAd and -loadInterscrollerAdForAdConfiguration:completionHandler:.

Google Mobile Ads v11.10.0

• Made video buffering changes to improve playback performance on cellular connection.

Google Mobile Ads v11.9.0

• Official release for iOS 18 support.
• Fixed an issue that would prevent app open ads from hiding the status bar.
• Updated debug console logs to use OSLog with the subsystem name com.google.GoogleMobileAds.
• Fixed a bug that would cause the SDK to crash when running on MacOS.

Google Mobile Ads v11.8.0

• Native ads: Fixed a bug where playing a paused video triggered an extra GADVideoControllerDelegate play and pause callback.

Google Mobile Ads v11.7.0

• Deprecated GADQueryInfo APIs. For generating query information, use +[GADMobileAds generateSignal:completionHandler:] instead.
• Allowlisted publishers can now use GADRequest.customTargeting to segment meditation groups using custom key-value pairs.

Google Mobile Ads v11.6.0

• Added a dependency on MarketplaceKit. This requires apps to build with Xcode 15.3 or above.
  • MarketplaceKit is Swift-only, so a Swift placeholder file has been added to the distribution so Swift standard libraries are included in apps even if they don't contain other Swift files.

Google Mobile Ads v11.5.0

• Added the isCollapsible property to GADBannerView to check if a returned banner is collapsible.
• The userInteractionEnabled status of native ad asset views is now restored after calling unregisterAdView on GADNativeAd or setting the asset views to nil.

  • Note: The ad inspector UI will roll out this feature at a later date, requiring a minimum SDK version of 11.5.0.
