method to NativeAdMapper, giving adapters access to

which allows apps to load multiple unique ads in a single request.

compileSdkVersion of at least 26 (Android O). This
does not change the way your app runs. You will not be required to update
targetSdkVersion.
Beginning with version 11.2.0, the Google Mobile Ads SDK is available via
Google's Maven repository. For more information, see the Google Play services
release notes.

setImmersiveMode() method to the
