AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

This skill provides a structured workflow for integrating Google Mobile Ads (GMA) banner ads into mobile applications. It covers the setup process for Android, iOS, and Unity platforms, focusing on defining ad views, configuring adaptive ad sizes, and managing ad load events. The skill emphasizes the use of Large Anchored Adaptive Banners as the default standard and provides platform-specific guidance for handling ad requests and verifying implementation builds.

What it does

  • Identifies the target mobile platform (Android, iOS, or Unity).
  • Provides specific implementation steps for banner ad views and sizes.
  • Recommends Large Anchored Adaptive Banners as the default ad format.
  • Guides the registration of ad load event callbacks.
  • Includes platform-specific verification steps to ensure successful builds.
  • Reminds users to swap test ad unit IDs for production IDs.

When to use it

  • When you need to integrate banner ads into an Android, iOS, or Unity app.
  • When you are setting up adaptive banner layouts for mobile screens.
  • When you need to troubleshoot the initial configuration of a banner ad view.
  • When you require specific guidance on using the Google Mobile Ads SDK for banner formats.

Advantages

  • Standardizes the integration process across different mobile platforms.
  • Ensures best practices for adaptive banner sizing are followed.
  • Provides clear, step-by-step procedures to avoid common implementation errors.
  • Includes platform-specific verification methods to confirm successful integration.

Usage examples

“How do I add a banner ad to my Android app?”
The agent will identify the platform as Android, provide the necessary imports, guide you through defining the AdView, setting the adaptive AdSize, and implementing the loadAd callback while reminding you to handle UI threading correctly.
“I need to set up a banner in my iOS project.”
The agent will provide the steps to configure the BannerView, set the ad size using the appropriate global functions, and verify the build using xcodebuild or manual Xcode verification.

Google Mobile Ads SDK - Banner Ads

Banner ads are rectangular image or text ads that occupy a spot within an app's layout. They remain on screen during user interaction and can refresh automatically.

Banner Ad Types

Default to Large Anchored Adaptive Banner if the user says "banner" without defining a type. If the user suggests or asks about other banner ad types, recommend large anchored adaptive banners.

Banner TypeDescription
Large Anchored AdaptiveDefault. Can be anchored to the top or bottom of the screen.
Anchored AdaptiveCan be anchored to the top or bottom of the screen.
Inline AdaptiveONLY available to use for Android and iOS. Placed within content.

Workflow

  1. Determine the user's platform: Identify if the project is Android, iOS, or Unity. If unclear, ask before proceeding.

  2. Read the platform guide for implementation details:

    • Android: references/android-banner.md

    • iOS: references/ios-banner.md

    • Unity: references/unity-banner.md

  3. Follow these steps in order:

    • [ ] Define the ad view

    • [ ] Set the ad size

    • [ ] Register for ad load events

    • [ ] Load the banner ad

    • [ ] Verify the implementation

  4. After the banner ad is successfully implemented, remind the user to replace the test ad unit ID with their own.
