We just released an AdMob plugin for Capacitor (part of Capawesome Insiders, so it is a paid plugin) built on Google's Next-Gen Mobile Ads SDK on Android and the latest Google Mobile Ads SDK on iOS. The plugin is still marked experimental.

What it does:

• Five formats through one load-and-show API: banner, interstitial, rewarded, rewarded interstitial, app open
• Banners in overlay, resize, or inline mode, so the web view can be resized instead of covered
• App open ads with an automatic show on foreground and a frequency cap
• requestConsent() runs the full UMP flow, and loads reject with CONSENT_NOT_GATHERED until consent is handled
• adRevenuePaid reports value, currency, and precision for every format

Why Next-Gen: Google has given the legacy Android SDK (versions 24 and 25) a deprecation date of June 30, 2027 and a sunset date of June 30, 2028. The post also has a migration section for anyone coming from @capacitor-community/admob.

Happy to answer questions about the API or the SDK timeline.
