Before You Begin

Check requirements before integration.

Requirements

Android minSdkVersion: 23

Verify app-ads.txt setup before proceeding.

Desugaring required: Configure desugaring if minSdk is below 26.

android {
    ...

    compileOptions {
        isCoreLibraryDesugaringEnabled = true
        sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    ...
}

...

dependencies {
    ...

    coreLibraryDesugaring("com.android.tools:desugar_jdk_libs:2.0.4")

    ...
}

android {
    ...

    compileOptions {
        coreLibraryDesugaringEnabled true
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    ...

Apply ProGuard rules if needed

The daro SDK includes the following obfuscation rules in consumer-rules.pro, which are automatically merged during app build when adding the AAR via Gradle.
If you want to modify the obfuscation rules, please refer to the content below and apply them to your proguard-rules.pro file.

Initialize SDK

Important: Load Ads After Initialization

Initialize DARO SDK before loading ads by calling Daro.init().
Requesting ads before initialization may prevent proper display.

class AppApplication : Application() {

  override fun onCreate() {
    ...

    // Daro SDK initialization
    Daro.init(
      application = application,
      sdkConfig = Daro.SDKConfig.Builder()
          .setDebugMode(...) // (set log exposure, default : false)
          .setAppMuted(...) // (set app mute, default : false)
          .build()
    )
  }
}

App Mute Setting

For app open, banner, interstitial, rewarded, rewarded interstitial, and native ad formats, you can use the setAppMuted(...) method to inform the Daro SDK that the app volume has been muted.

// Mute app
Daro.setAppMuted(true)


// Unmute app
Daro.setAppMuted(false)

Native ads apply the mute state to video playback at load time, so call setAppMuted before loading native ads.

App Mute Usage PrecautionsWhen app mute is enabled, some video ad creatives that cannot play while muted may be excluded from ad requests, which can slightly reduce the ad pool and affect revenue.
