Native Ads Express RecyclerView Sample

This sample demonstrates how to request and display ads from AdMob Native Ads Express in an Android application using the RecyclerView widget.

The RecyclerView widget is a more advanced and flexible version of ListView. This widget helps simplify the display and handling of large data sets by allowing the layout manager to determine when to reuse (recycle) item views that are no longer visible to the user. Recycling views improves performance by avoiding the creation of unnecessary views or performing expensive findViewByID() lookups.

Prerequisites

  • Android API Level v9 or higher
  • Android Build Tools v22 or higher
  • Google Repository v26 or higher

How to Build
