[Android] Why interstitial ads always show multiple times in a row

[Kevin Ton]

Hello,

My app has integrated with interstitial ads last month. But recent weeks many users complain that there are too many ads. The main problem is that the interstitial ads always show multiple times in a row. 

Could someone give any suggestion?

Below is my code:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public class MyActivity{

       ........

       @Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

..........

showAds();

}

        private void showAds(){

            interstitial = new InterstitialAd(this, "sn");

   AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();

   interstitial.loadAd(adRequest);

   interstitial.setAdListener(new AdListener(){

@Override

public void onDismissScreen(Ad arg0) {

}

@Override

public void onFailedToReceiveAd(Ad ad, ErrorCode error) {

Log.e("Fail to receive ads: "+error);

}

@Override

public void onLeaveApplication(Ad ad) {

}

@Override

public void onPresentScreen(Ad ad) {

}

@Override

public void onReceiveAd(Ad ad) {

   if (ad == interstitial) {

     interstitial.show();

   }

}});

}

}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks,

Kevin.

Hi Kevin,

I am not sure if including interstitial.show(); in onReceiveAd is the right way. Maybe or maybe not this is causing the issue. What I have done is kept the onReceiveAd empty and to show an ad- included the code below:- ( after the AdListener)

if (interstitial.isReady()) {

        interstitial.show();

      }

The difference is my users don't complain about too many ads from a single session of app where I have loaded the ad once only. It shows as it is meant to that is one ad per one loadAd.( even after pause, start)

Have you seen multiple interstitials yourself?

Best,
Kunal

Hi Kunal,

Thanks for your suggestion.

The issue dose not always occur and it just occurs in some users. I will try your suggestion and will update the result.

Best,

Kevin.
