VAST Ads not playing on Android Phones

Neil 5 years, 4 months ago

I have 4 live streams on my website and they are supposed to deliver a VAST ad before the live stream.

https://www.dawlishbeach.com/cameras/free-cameras/salty-cottage-cam/

It works fine on computers and tablets but I’ve tried on a Samsung S9+ and Huawei P30 Pro on Chrome and Firefox and the ads don’t deliver.

I have ‘Mobile Support’ switched on in FL Player Vast.

My ad delivery has dropped by 70% since using this player.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Neil,

Have you also turned on the Silent start option? Ads need to start muted because of the core mobile device restrictions.

If you want to find more info about VAST settings you can follow our How to use VAST documentation.

Thanks for being part of the Foliovision,

Juraj

Hello Neil,

I had a look and I’m getting ads on my old Android 5 phone with latest Chrome and also on Android 6 without issues.

On contrary we are getting no ads on desktop.

Thanks,
Martin

Hello Neil,

still no ads on desktop, but if I enable the mobile emulation in Google Chrome I get the ads right away. Are you using some test mode which forces the ads to appear on mobile?

Thanks,
Martin
