AdMob estimated adapter release history for CloudX iOS SDK

[13.6.0.4] - 2026-08-26

  • Changed: Google adapter startup no longer delays CloudX SDK initialization. The Google Mobile Ads SDK now starts in the background instead of holding up your initialize call. A missing GADApplicationIdentifier in your Info.plist still fails initialization straight away.
  • Changed: an ad requested in the moment right after initialization may no-fill once. A request landing before Google’s background start finishes returns a fast no-fill for that one request instead of waiting, and the next request is served normally.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 13.6.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0.

[13.6.0.3] - 2026-08-21

  • Changed: fullscreen ads now prefetch through Google’s ad-preloading API — interstitial, rewarded, and app-open ads are preloaded by the Google Mobile Ads SDK, not the adapter. Banner, MREC, and native are unchanged, and no publisher action is needed.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 13.6.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0.

[13.6.0.2] - 2026-08-11

  • Added: Google Ad Manager demand. CLXGoogleWaterfallPlacementTypeGam placements load via the GAM request surface (banner, MREC, interstitial); revenue measured from realized GAM revenue history.
  • Changed: realized-price bookkeeping moved into CloudXCore. The adapter’s CLXGoogleWaterfallRealizedPriceStore header is removed; CloudXCore 3.7.0 now keeps this history using the same storage keys. No publisher action needed.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 13.6.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0.

[13.6.0.1] - 2026-07-21

  • Fixed: prefetched ads could be served after Google’s documented ad-expiry windows, causing blank or failed renders. Prefetched fills now expire per format — 4 hours for App Open, 1 hour for all other formats (CLXGoogleWaterfallFillTtlMsForFormat) — and are proactively refreshed in the background shortly before expiry.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 13.6.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.5.0.

[13.6.0.0] - 2026-07-08

  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 13.6.0.
  • Supports Banner, MREC, Interstitial, Rewarded, Native, and App Open.
  • First independently versioned release. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.5.0.

[12.14.0.3] - 2026-08-26

  • Changed: Google adapter startup no longer delays CloudX SDK initialization. Same change as 13.6.0.4, for Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0. A request landing before Google’s background start finishes no-fills once.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0. Prefer ~> 13.6.0.4 unless you must stay on 12.14.0.

[12.14.0.2] - 2026-08-11

  • Added: Google Ad Manager demand (12.14.0). Same support as 13.6.0.2 (CLXGoogleWaterfallPlacementTypeGam placements; CLXGoogleWaterfallRealizedPriceStore now in core), for Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0. Prefer ~> 13.6.0.2 unless you must stay on 12.14.0.

[12.14.0.1] - 2026-07-29

  • Fixed: prefetched ads could be served after Google’s documented ad-expiry windows, causing blank or failed renders. Prefetched fills now expire per format — 4 hours for App Open, 1 hour for all other formats (CLXGoogleWaterfallFillTtlMsForFormat) — and are proactively refreshed in the background shortly before expiry. Backport of the 13.6.0.1 fix to the 12.14.0 compatibility line.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.5.0. Prefer ~> 13.6.0.1 unless you must stay on 12.14.0.

[12.12.0.0] - 2026-09-02

  • Added: compatibility-line release for Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.12.0. Same feature set as 12.14.0.3 (Google Ad Manager demand, realized-price history in core, fill expiry, startup off the SDK init gate), built against Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.12.0; no adapter source changed. Fullscreen ads still prefetch through the adapter’s own loader, since Google’s ad-preloading API is not available on 12.x.
  • Certified with Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.12.0. Requires CloudXCore >= 3.7.0. Prefer ~> 13.6.0.4 unless you must stay on 12.12.0.

[12.14.0.0] - 2026-07-08

  • Compatibility-line release for apps pinned to Google Mobile Ads SDK 12.14.0.
  • Requires CloudXCore >= 3.5.0. Prefer ~> 13.6.0.0 unless you must stay on 12.14.0.
