IOS 9 Support

App Transport Security

As you may be aware, with the upcoming introduction of iOS 9, Apple will be urging application developers towards greater security. This is a program called App Transport Security (ATS) and is documented in more detail in an Apple tech note.

Applications built for iOS 9 will be asked to choose one of the following four security models for external resources:

  • ATS for all resources (the default)
  • ATS for all, with exceptions: the app will allow insecure http requests to a limited set of whitelisted domains.
  • ATS disabled, with exceptions: the app will allow insecure http requests to all domains, except for a set of listed domains for which https is required
  • ATS fully disabled

Adform Advertising SDK is fully compatible with Apple security requirements and supports ATS, so no additional changes required for that.

Query schemes

In iOS 9 you must whitelist any URL schemes that your App wants to query. Our sdk uses "sms" and "tel" URL schemes to determine if device can send sms and make phone calls. Therefore, to avoid possible problems on IOS9 we recommend you to add "sms" and "tel" schemes to the white-list. To do so, developers should add the following to their plist:

    <key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>  
    <array>  
         <string>sms</string>  
         <string>tel</string>  
    </array>

1. General Info

  • Xcode 6.0 or later.

2. How to import Adform Advertising SDK to your iOS project?

2.1. Using CocoaPods

Adform Advertising SDK is now available via CocoaPods. CocoaPods is a very popular Objective-C dependency management tool.

  • To use CocoaPods, you should first install the CocoaPods Ruby Gem (CocoaPods is built with Ruby):
$ sudo gem install cocoapods
  • Next, you need to create a Podfile, which describes what dependencies you project has. This file should be placed in your project directory.
$ pod init
  • Next, edit Podfile and add the platform identifier and the list of libraries you want to use in the project.
platform :ios, '8.0'

target :test do

	pod 'AdformAdvertising'

end
  • Finally, you have to install the selected libraries.
pod install

Thats it!

Just dont forget that after installing cocoapods you have to open your project through App.xcworkspace.
