GDPR message and App Open ads

[kanjah77]

Hello,
In my application I use App Open ads on -Splash screen-. I have been trying to implement the GDPR message and the UMP SDK for a couple of days now, but without success. Namely, during testing, it happens that when consentInformation.consentStatus == ConsentInformation.ConsentStatus.OBTAINED method, within the onConsentFormDismissed(), I start a timer that results in starting the main activity and displaying the App Open advertisement, although I don't know the real result, whether the user gave consent or not, or just closed the form. A new GDPR message appears, covered by an ad.

I see that there is an example on Github for displaying banners with the UMP SDK, but I don't see any examples for other types of ads.

Should we wait a little longer to display the GDPR message until you make an example for Open Ad as well?

Best regards

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Let me do the best I can to assist you with your concern.

Please do note that you should load/show App Open ads through the following scenario:

• Show your first app open ad after your users have used your app a few times.
• Show app open ads during times when your users would otherwise be waiting for your app to load.
• If you have a loading screen under the app open ad, and your loading screen completes loading before the ad is dismissed, you may want to dismiss your loading screen in the onAdDismissedFullScreenContent() method.

For your use case, you will need to get your user's consent first (https://developers.google.com/admob/android/privacy#display-message) before trying to load App Open ads. If the consent has not been obtained yet, then you will need to prevent your app from requesting/loading App open ads.
