Adding a banner ad to your Android app is a great way to monetize your app and earn revenue. There are a few different ways to add banner ads to your Android app, but the most common and easiest way is to use the Google Mobile Ads SDK.
The Google Mobile Ads SDK is a powerful tool that allows you to easily add banner ads to your Android app. The SDK makes it easy to add banner ads to your app with just a few lines of code.
To add banner ads to your Android app using the Google Mobile Ads SDK, you need to first add the SDK to your app. You can do this by adding the following line to your app’s build.gradle file:
dependencies {
…
implementation ‘com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:18.3.0’
}
Once you have added the SDK to your app, you need to initialize it. You can do this by adding the following line of code to your app’s main Activity:
import com.google.android.gms.ads.MobileAds;
…
MobileAds.initialize(this, “YOUR_ADMOB_APP_ID”);
Replace “YOUR_ADMOB_APP_ID” with your AdMob App ID. You can find your App ID in the AdMob UI.
Once you have initialized the SDK, you are ready to add banner ads to your app. The easiest way to do this is to add a banner ad to your app’s main Activity.
To add a banner ad to your app’s main Activity, you need to add the following code:
import com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView;
…
AdView mAdView = findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
Replace “R.id.adView” with the ID of the View that will hold the banner ad.
That’s all you need to do to add banner ads to your Android app!
