This release includes breaking changes.

Update your Google Mobile Ads Library in Podfile.

Add these to your Podfile.

pod 'Google-Mobile-Ads-SDK'
pod 'GoogleMobileAdsMediationFacebook'

Then run pod update & pod install. If you are upgrading, then run, pod install --repo-update

Fixed

1. Downgraded the version of Goodle Mobile Ads to 19.8.0 on android and 7.6x on iOS to restore compatibility with other admob libraries.
2. Fixed #135

Added

1. Add ability to change StarRatingView icon colors.

This is a huge update from previous release and a lot of things have been added:

• Support Google Ads >=8.0
  Added full support for latest Google Ads Library
• Ads mediation (Facebook Mediation Especially)
  I have added full support for mediation from facebook ads since its a very large ad network. All possible only due to help from @yaroslavnikiforov providing me with the necessary facebook ad accounts for testing
• Ad targeting
  Full support to show targeted ads. Check the docs for details
• Video Controls and Events
  Basic video controls and events for play, pause, end etc are added too
• Rewrite documentation and publish on GH-Pages
  The most frustrating job to do but always worth it. Check the new docs and help me improve it, I will accept pull requests
• Improve CallToActionView
  Previously CallToActionView was not clickable properly. Now we support proper clicking and interaction.
• Many under the hood bug fixes and improvements.
  Several things have been changed under the hood which will result in better ads and low memory usage.

Breaking Changes

With so many things changing there are definately some breaking changes but nothing huge.

1. MediaView is renamed to NativeMediaView
2. Ads are not loaded automatically. You need to use ref to load ads. Check docs for details.
3. refreshInterval & delayAdLoading props have been removed
4. You need to use buttonAndroidStyle to style the CallToActionView on Android

Head over to Migrating Guide to see what you need to change.
