    Note

    This method is not only called the first time an ad creative is expanded, but also when the user rotates the device.

    Declaration

    Implement this method if you want to be able to prevent an ad from sticking to top: for example, if you have loaded several banner views in the same controller and display only some of them, etc…

    Note

    This method is not only called the first time stick to top conditions are met but every time until ad is stuck.

Native audio playback

  • Tells the banner view if it should handle AVAudioSession on its own when playing native (audio/video) ads.

    Implement this method and return NO if you want to override ad view’s behavior with AVAudioSession.

    Use the adViewWillPlayAudio: and adViewDidFinishPlayingAudio: methods to implement your own behavior.

    Warning

    Disabling AVAudioSession handling can prevent the SDK to change the volume for a creative or to display mute/unmute buttons on some formats.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (BOOL)bannerViewShouldHandleAudioSession:(nonnull SASBannerView *)bannerView;

    Swift

  • Notifies the delegate that the banner view will start playing native audio.

    Implement this method if you want to know when an ad view starts playing native audio (e.g. from a native video).

    This is useful if you want to pause your own audio, change the shared AudioSession or trigger other custom behavior.

    Note

    This method will only be triggered by native creatives, not by HTML based creatives.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)bannerViewWillPlayAudio:(nonnull SASBannerView *)bannerView;
