Anyone else getting a crash on running your app if you have a mobile advert plugin on it?

Don't know if it's the mobile advert plugin as I haven't tried disabling it yet but my APK keeps crashing at start up on multiple devices. It won't even start.

Edit: Yep deleting the Mobile Advert plugin solve the crashing, thank you! Now I can at least test.

chris200x9 If you create a new project and export the APK, does it run okay? Mine does until I add the Mobile Advert. How about you?

I haven't tried that but I did remove mobile advert from my project and now it no longer crashes at startup so I imagine it'd work the same way on a blank project.

It's very strange that the mobile adverts started doing that since last night 10/5 (Fri). Ashley any known issues with mobile adverts crashing apps? Thanks!

Yes, I have the same problem. When adding a mobile adver to the project, the application does not start. If the mobile advert is deleted from the application, then everything is correct. How to fix this problem?

The application began to run. But advertising on a mobile phone does not work. I hope that the work continues

hi guys, I think it is working right now..

Admob sometimes just doesn't send Ads, not really sure why. It's worth taking it into account when creating your events. In any of the error events you can check the reasons using the MobileAdvert.errormessage system expression.

Admob pushed out an updated on Friday ( not cool ) which added a new setup step. If the setup step isn't completed they purposefully crash the app ( also not cool ) I can't figure out why they needed the step, it seems pretty pointless. I've pushed an update out to the build server to use the older version of Admob, so it should now be working again. Hopefully we will be using the latest version again in r122.

Thanks guys! Admob plugin earned. In test mode for sure.

Okay I have released construct-mobile-advertssz@1.2.6 which is used by the C3 plugin Mobile Advert. As a point release it will be automatically available now.

The only change is to use version 16.0.0 of the admob SDK instead of the latest. This should work correctly, so you won't see the crash anymore.

If you do experience a crash or a build error please post it here and I will see if I can resolve it.
