Integration Checklist for Native

  • Integrate the MAX SDK and the MAX-InMobi adaptor. The minimum SDK and adaptor versions supporting native for InMobi are 10.1.0.1 for iOS and 10.0.9.3 for Android. You must remember that the InMobi SDK is already a part of the MAX SDK. You don’t need to integrate the InMobi SDK additionally.
  • Use the main image in your native ad to ensure seamless impression tracking. The ad doesn't count impressions if the main image is not used in the native ad.
  • We support a default image size with the aspect ratio 256:165 (or ~ 3:2). Let us know if you support any other aspect ratio.
  • We support the small, medium, and manual templates for native ads on MAX. Small/medium are pre-fixed templates, while the manual template allows you to customize the native ad as per your feed. For more information, check out the following links:
