We’ve added support for bitcode in the latest release of the iOS Google Mobile Ads SDK ! The Enable Bitcode setting was introduced in Xcode 7 as one of the components of app thinning - a
technique to help re-optimize your app binary in the future without having to
submit a new version to the App Store.
You can change this setting for your app in the project’s Build Settings . Under the Build Options section, set Enable Bitcode to Yes
. Note that if you enable bitcode, all apps and frameworks in the app bundle
need to include bitcode as well.
With the new release, we’ve also made some additional changes , one of which is an added dependency for the MediaPlayer framework . You will need to link this framework to your app’s binary. If you are using
CocoaPods, then running a simple pod update
will do the trick.
If you have any questions regarding the new iOS SDK release, feel free to
contact us through our forum .
