Question

I trying to put an admob add into my app but I think it is too big. In documentation minimum size is 320×50. Meanwhile in my app it wants 426 (which is odd as documentation does not mention such resolution) :

Not enough space to show ad! Wants: <426, 66>, Has: <324, 628>

Is there a way to force the smallest one? I tried ads:adSize=”BANNER” and ads:adSize=”SMART_BANNER” and both are too big.

thanks

You have to remember the BANNER size is 320x50dip, not pixels. So, on higher density devices it takes more pixels. The easiest way to make sure it has the right size is to size the AdView as 320x50dp for banner size when you create it.
