RevMob constantly times out

Has anybody else noticed this lately? I'm testing an app update and probably 30% of the time when I click on the RevMob ads in my app, nothing happens - I just get this message in the console - [RevMob] Fail with error: The request timed out.. { NSErrorFailingURLKey = "http://ios.bcfads.com/api/v4/mobile_apps/4fe156c6064c96000c0000d5/anchors/fetch.json"; NSErrorFailingURLStringKey = "http://ios.bcfads.com/api/v4/mobile_apps/4fe156c6064c96000c0000d5/anchors/fetch.json"; NSLocalizedDescription = "The request timed out."; NSUnderlyingError = "Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=-1001 "The request timed out." UserInfo=0xb00d2f0 {NSErrorFailingURLKey=http://ios.bcfads.com/api/v4/mobile_apps/4fe156c6064c96000c0000d5/anchors/fetch.json, NSErrorFailingURLStringKey=http://ios.bcfads.com/api/v4/mobile_apps/4fe156c6064c96000c0000d5/anchors/fetch.json, NSLocalizedDescription=The request timed out.}"; } The problem here is if my app is in review, and the "more games" button doesn't load anything when tapped, that's an instant rejection. It's frustrating because I make the most money with RevMob, but it seems to be getting more weird and unstable with every update

Yeah I've noticed timeouts, delays and also some people find the ads very annoying - although that's probably more about placement. It's a great revenue source though like you say - Maybe you can pause ads during approval process and for the 'more games' button - remove it and connect it back up via the cpanel after approval so once user refreshes they'll see it.

for sure, their sdk updates don't seem worth the trouble anymore.. with the great new in-app purchase plugin here at BT, you'd be better off offering substantle to your users & most likely earning more?! im definitely going that route

@Absentia, thanks for reporting this issue. This usually happens when the internet connection is slow, such as in a 3G network. Would you mind sending me an e-mail to [email protected] so I can ask some questions about your issues? @AppOneBeta, thanks for reporting too. If possible, please also e-mail me to [email protected]! Thanks, guys
