Question:Unity Input Events were called when the user swiped on the native overlay ad on iOS

[toza]

Hello,

On iOS, Unity Input Events, such as OnBeginDrag, OnDrag, OnEndDrag were called when the user swiped on the native overlay ad.
it made Unity UI(Button/Scroller) under the ad was worked.
On Android, input events on the native overlay ad are not notified to Unity.

In addition, the argument of the Unity input events, PointerEventData, was improper.
PointerEventData.position.y was set -7126225000.

I want Input Events on the native overlay advertisement be not notified to Unity, like Android.
Or,I want to get the correct PointerEventData.

Could you let me know how to address this issue?

Hi Asad,

Thank you for providing the steps to reproduce the issue.

I tried to replicate the reported issue in our Google samples but I am facing some issue at our end while running Google sample project with the provided code. Could you share us with the sample project that includes the unity input events when the user swipes on native overlay ad?

Thanks,
