Admob interstitial screen orientation

[syedh...@satistrum.com]

Dear Helper,

I am using iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1 and situation is my application has different type of games and these games are using different mode of screen orientation some games are using landscape and other are using portrait, when user is playing in landscape mode and Admob interstitial appears in portrait mode. 

so my question is, how can i restrict SDK to load and show Admob interstitial in landscape when user is playing game in landscape mode or show in potrait if user is playing in portrait mode? 

second question is how and when SDK is detecting the screen orientation of device?

thanks in Advance 

best regards

Hassan

You should not need to do this.  The SDK will detect for itself in which orientation the device is held and handle things automatically.

This happens when you first make the request to load an interstitial.  The request must include information about the state of the device in order to return the best possible ad.  If you're loading interstitials well in advance of display, and there's a chance that the user may rotate the device in between, consider shortening the delay between requesting the ad and showing it.

thanks Mr Andrew,

 here is my piece of code  for loading the Admob

- (GADInterstitial *)createAndLoadInterstitial {

    if([self orientation] == 0) {

        NSLog(@"potrait screen");

        //do portrait work

    } else {

        //do landscape work

        NSLog(@"Landscape");

    }

    GADInterstitial *admobInterstitial = [[GADInterstitial alloc] init];

    admobInterstitial.adUnitID = @"ca-app-pub-4645525112946949/2328818911";

    admobInterstitial.delegate = self;

    [admobInterstitial loadRequest:[GADRequest request]];

    //request.testDevices = @[ GAD_SIMULATOR_ID ];

    NSLog(@"load gad");

    return admobInterstitial;

}

before loading i check it its a landscape mode but even then Ads display in landscape mode, so what the problem then?

one more thing i think you know, in iOS 8 detecting the screen orientation is not before, i hope you update latest ver of sdks according to IOS 8

Best regards

I'm a little confused.  I thought the issue was that when the device was in landscape mode, interstitials were in portrait?

Your code looks fine, though I'm curious why you're not using UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait to check the device orientation.  As long as the device orientation doesn't change in between the loading and the displaying of interstitials, you should be fine.

If you haven't already, try using test ads to make sure it's not a problem with a creative.
