Googleads-mobile-unity: AdMob Rewarded video not pausing the game

[psavi]

When admob rewarded video runs on iOS, the game not stops. I've tried different things like try other versions and didn't work... At Android it not happen, is working fine...

@psavi can you link me to a Unity project that reproduces this issue?

[psavi]

@rampara I've got the solution! I had to write some lines with "UnityPause(true)" on GADURewardBased VideoAd.m file.

3.6.1 same here ios build.

On android , when i press close button, it gives reward. expected behaviour.
On ios , it rewards after video finish. not expected.
Also its not pausing game when showing some interactable full screen interstitials.

3.6.3 same.
Simple work around is pause game OnVideoRewarded , and resume in OnVideoClosed

As @ArmandCloud mentioned, the recommended approach is to use ad events to pause and resume games.

@rampara using ad events to pause and resume it's a workaround. But, shouldn't it be fixed in this plugin? Shouldn't work on iOS the same way it does on Android?

[rampara]

In the latest version of the plugin (v3.11.0), there is a new API MobileAds. SetiOSAppPauseOnBackground(), which when set will cause iOS apps to pause while displaying a full screen ad.

Note: This is now GoogleMobileAds.Api.MobileAds.SetiOSAppPauseOnBackground(...) for Unity.
