I have tried to do it with my ad banner view and it worked perfectly, but I really can't figure out how to do this for my interstitial.
I'm not that skilled so please try to explain it in a very easy and simple way, what my alternative is.
My banner ad view was very easy
if UserDefaults.standard.getActiveRemoveAdsSubscription() == true {
bannerView.isHidden = true
} else if UserDefaults.standard.getActiveRemoveAdsSubscription() == true {
bannerView.isHidden = true
} else {
bannerView.isHidden = false
}
But what do I do with the InterstitalAd which is not a member of 'isHidden ?
Here is my InterstitalAd code:
import UIKit
import GoogleMobileAds
class UITabBarViewController: UITabBarController, GADFullScreenContentDelegate {
var interstitial: GADInterstitialAd!
let request = GADRequest()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
if UserDefaults.standard.getActiveRemoveAdsSubscription() == true {
} else if UserDefaults.standard.getActiveRemoveAdsSubscription() == true {
} else {
}
_ = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 30.0, target: self, selector: #selector(timerBlock), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}
@objc func timerBlock()
{
print("within the timer!")
// Active link
// GADInterstitialAd.load(withAdUnitID: "x", request: request, completionHandler: {ad, error
// Test Link
GADInterstitialAd.load(withAdUnitID: "ca-app-pub-x", request: request, completionHandler: {ad, error
in
if let error = error {
print("Failed to load the ad: \(error)")
return
}
self.interstitial = ad
self.interstitial.fullScreenContentDelegate = self
})
if interstitial != nil{
interstitial!.present(fromRootViewController: self)
}
else
{
print("Ad didn't load / Wasn't ready")
}
}
func ad(_ ad: GADFullScreenPresentingAd, didFailToPresentFullScreenContentWithError error: Error) {
print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)")
}
func adWillPresentFullScreenContent(_ ad: GADFullScreenPresentingAd) {
print("Success!!")
}
func adDidDismissFullScreenContent(_ ad: GADFullScreenPresentingAd) {
print("User dismissed the ad")
}
There are 2 scenarios to handle this.
GADInterstitialAd
right after the purchase.In both the case, make your interstitial nullable like:
private var interstitial: GADInterstitialAd?
To handle the first case:
if Purchase.isSuccesful == true {
interstitial = nil
}
To handle the second case (assuming you are saving the purchase state locally):
Inside the timerBlock()
function, simply check if the Ads are removed & load Ads accordingly like:
@objc func timerBlock() {
if UserDefaults.standard.getActiveRemoveAdsSubscription() == false {
// Load Ad & show Interstitial
} else {
print("Ad Removed, not loading Interstitial.")
}
}
