Release Notes

Version Release Date Notes
1.4.0 2026年08月20日
1.3.1 2026年07月29日
  • Bug fixes and performance improvements for a limited access feature.
1.3.0 2026年07月21日
  • Changed AdView.loadAd() to pause automatic retries for failed ad requests when automatic refresh is disabled for the ad unit.
  • When an ad request for multiple native ads or icon ads yields no available ads, the SDK now returns a NO_FILL error instead of an INTERNAL_ERROR .
  • Added a manifest flag to disable ad inspector.
  • Added the Ad.getAdUnitId() method to identify the ad unit ID used to request the ad.
  • Added the InitializationConfig.Builder.disableSdkCrashReporting() method, which provides a manual opt-out for the default crash handler in the GMA Next-Gen SDK. By default, the SDK still delegates crashes to other registered handlers (such as Crashlytics).
  • When using mediation with custom event ad sources, ResponseInfo.getAdapterClassName() now returns your custom event class name instead of com.google.ads.mediation.customevent.CustomEventAdapter.
1.2.1 2026年06月15日
  • For apps using WebView API for Ads, fixed an issue that prevented the SDK from providing signals to supported ad tags (AdSense code, Google Publisher Tag, IMA for HTML5). This issue was caused by Webkit methods being incorrectly called on a background thread.
1.2.0 2026年06月11日
1.1.1 2026年05月27日
  • Fixed an issue where rewarded ad pods could freeze during transitions, preventing users from closing the ad.
1.1.0 2026年05月18日
1.0.1 2026年04月30日
  • Fixed an issue where ads that use window.open() or links with target="_blank" failed to open landing pages.
1.0.0 2026年04月14日
0.25.0-beta01 2026年03月24日
0.24.0-beta03 2026年03月07日
  • Fixed an issue where AdView.destroy() failed to stop ad load retries after an ad load failed.
  • Added zero-argument constructors to NativeAdMapper and UnifiedNativeAdMapper to improve compatibility with Kotlin.
  • Added the packageName property to the IconAd interface.
  • Added an option to force the SDK to use Cronet instead of OkHttp for network operations. To resolve runtime errors in projects that use OkHttp 5, we recommend forcing Cronet for network operations. To force Cronet, set the force_use_cronet extra to true in the InitializationConfig.Builder when calling MobileAds.initialize(): 
    valconfig=InitializationConfig.Builder()
.setExtras(bundleOf("force_use_cronet"totrue))
.build()
MobileAds.initialize(this,config)
  • Added support for Java 11. To use Java 11, add the following code to the android block in your build.gradle file: 
    android {
 compileOptions {
 sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
 targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
 }
 kotlinOptions {
 jvmTarget = '11'
 }
}
