I believe it is easier for you to just use the menu.

File>Project Structure>Dependencies

and check the app module. there you can manually define the versions. when you press OK the project will resync and update the libraries

Ashley Hi, did you guys update Mobile Advert plugin in the last couple of months? Official plugins don't have "Version History". I didn't change logics for ads (or anything else that could involve MessageQueue) but ANR rate went up significantly. I'm not sure if I should file the issue on github since it will likely be marked "unable to reproduce" anyway. Maybe you could apply this potential fix?

This can only be hanlded by the cordova plugin, not by the C3 plugin.

And yes, they bumped the version of the cordova plugin since the older one used a GMA sdk which was not compliant to Android12.

Did you try set those in your manifest?

do we need to change manifest then?

No, the AD_ID permission is requested by Admob (if you use a recent version). So you are all good.

(Also note that the statement from Google is only for apps targeting Android13, which your don't.)

Test both OPTIMIZE_INITIALIZATION and OPTIMIZE_AD_LOADING. (You must use Mobile Ads SDK v21+)

As you see on the issuetracker the error is reported from hundreds av users, also on the unity forum and Admob forum people discuss the same.

There is some settings google have in beta mode for admob that might reduce this (I do not have this issue an longer since I started with that). But you need to amend your manifest in android studio.

I guess you can read about the ANR issues in the admob forum

The error is in the android os queue functionality, where messages are queed to be processed. As you can see a lot of people have this issue, it is very hard to investigate where it comes from. I believe it might come from Admob libraries in your case.

If you use android studio you might test the Optimized ad loading, which is in Beta.

otherwise there is not much to do..

You should mark YES.

(The ID permission is in your manifest by Google Admob.)

It seems you have mixed up adaptives and legacy ones. Just follow the guidelines and you will be fine.

Does anyone have a guide as to how to make appropriate sized icons in something like photoshop?

There is a photoshop template included in the link I posted.. And very detailed description on the actual icons.

adaptive icons are used on Android 8.0+

if you target any Android version below that you should also include a legacy icon.
