Integrate Pangle SDK for iOS

NOTICE: If you use Xcode 14 and above to develop your app, please make sure update Pangle iOS SDK to v4.7.0.8 and above, otherwise it will cause some compatibility problems.

In order to optimize the intrgration experience, we will make some big changes of interface in version 4600 and use a new set of integrate methods. This document is an interface comparison for upgrading the old version to version 4600. You can also read the detailed document below for integrating. If you need to integrate the version below 4600, please jump to the old integration document.

This guide is for publishers who only want to monetize an iOS app with the traffic outside of China. If you also want to monetize the traffic in China Mainland with the same build, please follow the guide How to import both Pangle and CSJ

Environment requirement

• IOS 12.X and higher;
• SDK compilation environment Xcode 13.1;
• If you use Xcode 14 and above to develop your app, please make sure update Pangle iOS SDK to v4.7.0.8 and above, otherwise it will cause some compatibility problems.
• Supporting architecture: x86-64, armv7, arm64,i386

Note: ios 9 is no longer supported starting from v3.5.0.0. Pangle do not support bitcode when using Xcode 14, because Apple has deprecated the support for bitcode on Xcode 14. For detailed articles, please refer to here: link

Import Pangle SDK through CocoaPods(preferred):

The simplest way to import the SDK into an iOS project is to use CocoaPods. Open your project's Podfile and add this line to your app's target:

• Note: import Pangle SDK that the version is higher v3.4.0.0

• Note: if you want to import old version of Pangle SDK that the version is lower v3.4.0.0, as shown below:

Download Pangle SDK Manually:

Download and unzip the SDK framework from Pangle Platform directly, and import the following frameworks and bundles into your Xcode project manually:

• BUAdSDK.framework
• BUFoundation.framework (v4.7.0.0 removed)
• BUAdSDK.bundle (v4.6.0.0 removed)
• BUVAAuxiliary.framework(v4.7.0.0 removed)
• BURelyFoundation_Global.framework(v4.3.0.0 added, BURelyFoundation_Global is the underlying basic function library, providing basic functions for Pangle. v4.7.0.0 change name to BURelyFoundation.framework)
• BURelyAdSDK.framework(v4.5.0.0 added)
• PAGAdSDK.framework  (v4.5.0.0 added, providing basic functions for Pangle.)
• PAGAdSDK.bundle (v4.5.0.0 added, providing basic functions for Pangle.)

Note: When you upgrade the SDK, you need to update all frameworks and bundle files.

Please make sure that Copy Bundle Resource contains BUAdSDK.bundle.
