iAd testing ads on real device confusion

Question

I want to use test ads on my iPad/iPhone universal app. Do I have to download iAd producer in order to use test ads? With iAd producer I must create my own ads and only those are the ads I can show to users? Or do I have to have a iAd workbench account to launch test ads on my device or is there another way to get test ads for my device and simulator?

Answer 1

You don't have to do any of those to test ads

-(void)bannerViewDidLoadAd:(ADBannerView *)banner{

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];

[UIView setAnimationDuration:0];

[iAdBanner setAlpha:1];

[UIView commitAnimations];

[self.iAdBanner setDelegate:self];


}



-(void)bannerView:(ADBannerView *)banner didFailToReceiveAdWithError:(NSError *)error{



 [bannerView setDelegate:self];
  [bannerView setAlpha:0];
   bannerView.hidden=YES;

     }

Just add the above code and an iAd test banner should appear .
