For iOS users who integrate Revmob there has been a change to the calls to Revmob. If you use my tutorial <a href="http://youtu.be/whSdvXVvW1w" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://youtu.be/whSdvXVvW1w</a> everything is the same other than the calls below. It still remains the simplest integration I have done. instead of: [RevMobAds showFullscreenAd]; it's [[RevMobAds session] showFullscreen]; [RevMobAds hideFullscreenAd]; it's [[RevMobAds session] hideFullscreen]; instead of: [RevMobAds showBannerAd];]; it's [[RevMobAds session] showBanner]; [RevMobAds hideBannerAd]; it's [[RevMobAds session] hideBanner]; I have updated the cheat sheet also for your copy and paste convenience Thanks to Sheri for the heads up

Nice!!

You rock man! I am about to put RevMob into an app, haven't integrated RevMob since the latest XCode update, so I'll report back on how it goes. If my dumb self can do this (which I did last time), anyone can. I think the tutorial you made is fantastic, I'm looking at it now, and will look at the docs and follow along. I have a system where I have your tutorial up on YouTube on my Windows laptop, and have my Mac fired up with XCode so I can do these at the same time. Will report back later today when I do this. Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to help folks like me. This is what's so fantastic about the Buzztouch community! :) Love the accent too - where are you from? I wonder if you'd think I was a hillbilly if I made a video - I'm from Alabama.

Thanks, I'm from Liverpool so the accent is scouse. Glad I can be of help. As long as you haven't got duelling banjos in the background music I'm sure it would be great.

:) That is a GREAT tutorial! I can't believe how easy you make it. A MILLION thanks to you! I won't have deuling banjos, but maybe the Alabama Crimson Tide fight song - Yea Alabama! :) We love our college football around here. I do have a question for you. In your tutorial, you did both the full screen ads and the banner ads. Has your experience been that using the RevMob banner ads gets you a better revenue than iAds? If you put those lines in the code like you did, would it put the banner ads at the bottom of every screen? I can play around with it to see how it looks like on that end, but I'm more curious about your experience with revenue from RevMob banner ads vs iAds banner ads. I have to say, I've been extremely happy with RevMob so far, with iAds, not so much.

I don't really have any experience with actual revenue as Apple keep knocking back my apps. But the feedback is that they are 100% petter than iAds. The revmob banner will just float over the bottom, which isn't too good for tab views. You can hide the banner on whatever screens you want though.

Definitely better than iAds (which have an eCPM of less that $2 for me). Just got banner, fullsceen & popups ads with placements integrated into my first app yay! Trying now to get adlink to work but its proving difficult. Here is the part of the code for placements in case its of any use, just replace the placement IDs. RevMobFullscreen *fullscreen = [[RevMobAds session] fullscreenWithPlacementId:@"PUT IN PLACEMENT ID HERE"]; [fullscreen showAd]; RevMobPopup *popup = [[RevMobAds session] popupWithPlacementId:@"PUT IN PLACEMENT ID HERE"]; [popup showAd]; RevMobBanner *banner = [[RevMobAds session] bannerWithPlacementId:@"PUT IN PLACEMENT ID HERE"]; [banner showAd]; Elaine.

what is a placement ID

In revmob, now as well as an app ID, you can break it down further and have a specific placement ID for each ad type. So 1 app has 1 main Id, but can also have 1 placement ID for each of: banner, fullscreen, adlink, popup, etc. You can then turn each type of ad in that app on & off seperately. Very handy, I'm just stuck at the adlink 'make a button' :) Elaine.

Cool I've implemented that with the control panel

Holy moly that is easy. I remember the first time I did this a couple of months ago, it was sort of a pain in the neck. But this is amazingly easy to do, and looks great in the app. Even with the new code to put in, I set up RevMob in my app in about 5 minutes. I can't say thank you enough to @Kittsy!! Great tutorial brother! Now, if signing the app was only as easy as implementing RevMob, I'd be cooking with gas! :)

Haha man RevMob changes so fast - they rolled out those placements a few weeks ago and now I see they just updated the whole placement system and the ones I made are now deprecated - Definitely an awesome way to go for ads though, especially since they are so responsive to Emails and questions @Elaine - have you seen the "How to make a button do anything" tutorial in the how-to's? If you use that you can make any menu button open the RevMob adLink. It also helps if you call [appDelegate showProgress] so that the user knows an ad is actually loading. This can also be done with a list menu, but the process is a little different than in the tutorial. post back if you want further clarification

aha - thanks Absentia - will check now: https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/make-a-button-do-anything.pdf Elaine

no problem - if you do call [appDelegate showProgress] then you should also paste the following method in your appDelegate.m - (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application{ [self hideProgress]; } that way, then the app is closes and the app store loads, the loading animation wont still be going when you re-launch the app. I paste that code directly above the applicationDidBecomeActive method (line 470)

Thanks for this Kittsy. Does anyone know how/if this affects existing apps using previous code/versions of sdk? I just had an update approved for one of my apps yesterday and also submitted a new app both with Revmob. I would rather not have to change them right away if I can help it! Both still seem to be working ok at the moment. Cheers. Ps awesome news on the 1million downloads Absentia! So is this your full time gig?

no it will still work for a while anyway. If the ads stop working time for an update. Revmobs update and fix bugs constantly

Thx for the tutorial, works like a charm. 1 question as you said, you can control on which screen the ad should show and where it shouldn't? How do you do that?

Any chance to get an answer on this?

Best idea is to read the revmob SDK instructions.

Well, see for yourself, but that is not in the revmob instructions.

Sorry Leon thought I replied. I made my own code changes and integrated into a control panel thing what it does though is. In each screen type I want a banner ad to show I include In the view did load section of the code Add the first show banner as in the video then [RevMobAds showBannerAd];]; it's [[RevMobAds session] hideBanner]; everytime a screen lads the class the banner will not be shown Then under -(void)navRightTap{ in the BTviewController.m insert [RevMobAds hideBannerAd]; it's [[RevMobAds session] showBanner]; everytime someone goes back it adds the banner Thus say you quiz have the quiz plug in you don't want a banner as it hides the timer when view did load hit it, it will remove the banner. When they finish and go back the banner will load again. Hope that makes a little sense

Very nice thanks that works perfectly. For me it was the navLeftTap but it works as expected.

sorry it was meant to be left, you knew what I meant ha

Answered my own question. ;-/

Thank you @Kittsy, I followed your tutorial and I managed to get Revmob working. However I've an issue with one of my page. The page is a web page containing a menu and a text input cell (I'm not sure if it should be called a UITextfield) which don't work anymore. I tested the app and removed the showBanner line and it works, so the issue should be in the Revmob showBanner. I found someone else http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12447875/keyboard-and-cursor-show-but-i-cant-type-inside-uitextfields-and-uitextviews having the same problem but I couldn't get the right solution. Thanks for any help you may give.

wheres the viewcontroller.m ? i got it to not show when u click on the quiz, but when i go back to the main screen it doesnt come back
