interstitial tapgage ads (and when the first ad should appear).

I love the Tapgage Interstitial Ads - really effective and vibrant - Just one issue I'm having.  I don't like the fact that the first Interstitial ad appears before the first activity is opened - I feel it would be more effective to wait until after the first activity but before the second maybe.

I love using Andromo - keep the updates coming! 5STAR!

I can dig what you're saying. I was sort of feeling the same way on Friday while playing around with different timings. It's all based on an timer, which starts at 0 with the display of an interstitial immediately upon opening an activity right now. The next one of course doesn't show up for 15 - 20 minutes (whatever you have that set to). But, it might not be a bad idea to put a few minutes of delay on that first interstitial appearance so people get into your app a bit - hook them into your content before presenting an interstitial...

I'll bring it up at our dev meeting on Monday and see what we can do!

Hi Colin,

I am new to this and just developed my first app, its a great platform and I am seriously considering using it and getting a subscription.

Just one query related to above discussion, Can I control the Ads that are displayed in my app?

And can I disable them if i want?

I just created an academic reference app, and the pop up ad on my first click was a semi-nude game character.

I guess you understand my concern.

I wish to build mostly Ad free apps.

Kindly advice.

Hello,

yeah, it would be cool, if we could decide, when to show the first ad.

Showing it with the first activity doesn't bother me, tho. I've seen some successful games, which show 2 interstitials, before letting you move on to the actual game, and then there is AdMob. No user complaints whatsoever (at least I wasn't able to find enay in regard to this).

Thanks Colin for timely response! Appreciated! 

 I think the Ad options are great. I'm using all options now as I have just started with MobPartner (that could be really good!) 

Fair comment to hendrix s who's not too bothered about seeing ads first, i would agree myself but i think it is a safer option as some people may get the impression that the App is loaded with ads and may be put off.

I think the best thing about the Interstitial is how effective it is with click thru's and not as obtrusive as i feared.

I have Pingjam but it has never done anything...  May be that's because it's not so big here in UK, and I'm not in London so...

Loving using Andromo - It's still the best out there! keep the updates coming!  5STAR

**Note to RAHULS --- Yes you can customise the categories that show in your App, just do it in the settings of your AdMob / Tapgage Account

I would recommend Andromo to Anyone who wants to create Android Apps!
