iAds not clickable

Has anyone else seen a huge drop in iad impressions since Wednesday? My impressions dropped about 50% for iAds compared to the previous week but I happened to release an update for the app on the same day. My iAds seem to be showing up fine on my device and are clickable, so I’m not sure if there is some type of problem with the iAds plugin or just iAds in general.

My other apps haven’t dropped in impressions as significantly as the app that was just updated which leads me to believe there was an issue with the iAd plugin not registering impressions.

UPDATE: It definitely looks like my last update was the problem. My impressions are dropping more which is probably as people are updating the app. Can someone from Corona chime in if there was an update to the iAds plugin that may have caused this. I built the package and submitted it for review on Aug 30th and it was reviewed and released on Sept 3rd.

Ok so I’ve gotten dozens of emails that the banner ads are appearing in the middle of the screen and are unclickable (ads are suppose to be on the bottom of the screen; when they are at the bottom of the screen they are clickable) and won’t go away. I’ve seen this happen only once or twice and couldn’t duplicate it but I’m thinking this is why my impressions have dropped. Unfortunately I didn’t connect the device to my computer to check the error messages. I know back in November last year there was an issue with iads banner not being clickable which also prevented impressions from registering (which I also had the pleasure of experiencing).

I know now that it’s an issue with the iAds plugin. Can I get a response from someone at Corona if they are looking into this issue and when a fix might be ready so I can create a new build to submit to Apple?

BTW the code I’m using previously worked fine so it’s not my code either. My last working build was August 3rd.

Anyone else having this issue with a recent build? Can anyone from Corona respond on whether there is someone working on this? I have two other app updates that were just approved but they were built around the same time as my previous app that is having issues with iAds so I’m going to have to wait on releasing it.

Posted a bug report: Case 35566. If anyone else is seeing their ad impressions drop significantly for iAds since a recent update please post a reply here. I’m pretty sure we are dealing with the same issue.
