Hello Everyone,
Samsung Adhub is another way of monetizing your apps.
It features Banner ads and Interstitial ads.
Different from other ad networks is that with Samsung AdHub, you are able to set the interests of users to suit your app with a so called UserProfile.
This way you can display ads which are related to the user's age, gender, interests, etc.
The library is very easy to use and implement in your app!
A sample is delivered which explains everything in detail which i copied below.
Also don't forget to add the following to the manifest file!
However I haven't been able to display an interstitial ad yet. Perhaps you need an Active InventoryID to test Interstitial ads out instead of a development one because i'm sure my code is correct.
As last!
Don't forget to register to Samsung AdHub when releasing your application.
You'll need to fill in some regular stuff, create your appform and retrieve your inventory id.
Don't forget to change your test inventoryID with your actual one!
