Admob banner ads are not showing up. I have tried 4.21, 4.22, and 4.23, both upgrading my project as well as creating a brand new project. My project is a Blueprint project, no source or cpp. I am using the official google/admob testing ad unit ID’s.
If I use this plugin: EasyAds in Code Plugins - UE Marketplace
The banner ad loads up fine no problem when launching to my phone from the editor. But I have issues packaging my game using that plugin due to an error within the plugin.
The plugin itself is unrelated to what I am asking. I just want to point out that ads are successfully working when using that plugin, but they do not work when using Unreal Engine’s own implementation, ironically.
When I run the app from the editor onto my phone, the log doesn’t show any errors. But when I close the app, these noticeable warnings pop up:
