Interstitial Ads

Loading an Interstitial Ad

The following code shows you how to attach listeners and load the first interstitial:

const INTERSTITIAL_AD_UNIT_ID = Platform.select({
  android: 'android_interstitial_ad_unit_ID',
  ios: 'ios_interstitial_ad_unit_ID',
});

const [retryAttempt, setRetryAttempt] = useState(0);

const initializeInterstitialAds = () = {
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialLoadedEventListener(() => {
    // Interstitial ad is ready to show. AppLovinMAX.isInterstitialReady(INTERSTITIAL_AD_UNIT_ID) now returns 'true'

    // Reset retry attempt
    setRetryAttempt(0)
  });
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialLoadFailedEventListener(() => {
    // Interstitial ad failed to load 
    // AppLovin recommends that you retry with exponentially higher delays up to a maximum delay (in this case 64 seconds)
        
    setRetryAttempt(retryAttempt + 1);
    const retryDelay = Math.pow(2, Math.min(6, retryAttempt));

    console.log('Interstitial ad failed to load - retrying in ' + retryDelay + 's');
          
    setTimeout(function() {
      loadInterstitial();
    }, retryDelay * 1000);
  });
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialClickedEventListener(() => { ... });
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialDisplayedEventListener(() => { ... });
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialAdFailedToDisplayEventListener(() => {
    // Interstitial ad failed to display. AppLovin recommends that you load the next ad
    loadInterstitial();
  });
  AppLovinMAX.addInterstitialHiddenEventListener(() => {
    loadInterstitial();
  });

  // Load the first interstitial
  loadInterstitial();
}

const loadInterstitial = () => {
  AppLovinMAX.loadInterstitial(INTERSTITIAL_AD_UNIT_ID);
}

Showing an Interstitial Ad

To show an interstitial ad, call showInterstitial():

try {
  const isInterstitialReady = await AppLovinMAX.isInterstitialReady(interstitial_ad_unit_ID);
  if (isInterstitialReady) {
    AppLovinMAX.showInterstitial(interstitial_ad_unit_ID);
  }
} catch(error) {
  // error handling
}
