the library xml file says <dependsOn>com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite</dependsOn>
from Google page
"Like any Android library, the Google Play services SDK increases the size of apps that include it. The Google Mobile Ads Lite SDK is a lightweight version of the Google Mobile Ads SDK built to reduce that impact. It is a fraction of the size of the regular SDK"
Yesterday i got an email from google talking about a new lite sdk with a very small size. https://firebase.google.com/docs/admob/android/lite-sdk . Any idea on how to incorporate this? A new library other than firebase admob would be required or we can change something with the current one?
