Add Google Ad Manager ads to an iOS app

Serve Google Ad Manager ads in your IAB ad views. This is an optional module of the IAB Standard Size Experience SDK for iOS. Set up the SDK first by following Add IAB Standard Size Experiences to an iOS app, then add Google Ad Manager here.

Step 1: Add the module

1. In your project, open the Genuin package (https://github.com/genuininc/ios_sdk) and add the GenuinGMAAds product to your app target.
2. Don't add Google's Mobile Ads package. It's already included in GenuinGMAAds. This is separate from the Google IMA package that the SDK guide asks you to add.

Step 2: Configure Info.plist

Add two keys to your app's Info.plist:

• GADApplicationIdentifier: your Google Ad Manager or AdMob app ID. This one is required. Without it Google ads are skipped silently.
• SKAdNetworkItems: Google's SKAdNetwork identifiers. Copy the current list from Google's documentation, and add them to the same array as the identifiers for any other ad network you use.

<key>GADApplicationIdentifier</key>
<string>ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX~YYYYYYYYYY</string>

Step 3: Register the module

Pass BGGMAAds.module when you initialize the SDK in Step 6. Adding the product isn't enough: a module you don't pass isn't registered, and its ads are skipped silently.

import GenuinSDK
import GenuinInStreamAds
import GenuinGMAAds

Genuin.shared.initialize(
    modules: [BGInStreamAds.module, BGGMAAds.module],
    apiKey: "<<YOUR_API_KEY>>"
)

Where Google ads appear

• Banners: BG320x50AdView and BG300x250AdView.
• Native ads: the other ad views.

The Ad Manager ad unit comes from your tag, so you don't pass it in code.
