I make apps with tasker and I want to put them up on Play store in order to earn bucks, but they are not good/useful enough to sell directly. So I need to put ads and as far as I have read, I have to contact an ad network or two. But the problem is that I don't have programming knowledge at all! All I know is to make series of tasks and scenes in tasker and export them with tasker app factory so I have an apk file in the end.
I can make almost all apps which are usually seen in the top free apps' trends in Play Store.
So, how will I put their ads? Do they give something which involves the use of Android SDK? Or can I give them my apk file so they will incorporate their ads for me? (this doesn't seem safe though).
One solution for this may be that they give me HTML for the ad so I can put it in tasker's HTML box, but then the ad networks won't be sure if their ads are showed properly or I am showing something else over the HTML box.
Also, do I have to pay the ad networks in advance or do they only take the share from the advertisements' earnings?

I thank everyone for the replies and I want to let everyone know that although I personally do not require an answer to this thread now, anyone who can share information about tasker apps and their monetization should write a reply for those visitors who would be needing such answer.
the post is like 4 months old, so i don't know if you still need the answers, but since nobody answered yet, i guess i'll just try, who knows if it helps you or anybody else.
i never used tasker before, but as far as i know, ads network company is providing sdk we have to include in our development project, some company like millenial media (i don't know about other company though) even providing step by step instruction of how to put their ads into our application on their website.
from your question, i assume tasker is something like game maker or app maker, sorry if i'm wrong, well, since i've some experience in using game maker also, just in case i'm right, in game maker, if they support putting ads into application, usually they include some option to do so, and the sdk from the ads network company is already included, i don't know if tasker have something like this.
hope this helps.
Thanks for the reply, tasker is not a development environment, it is just an app which lets us invoke different functions of phone on a step by step manner, and even lets us export these sets of actions as apk files.
I have, however, found that there is a very little possibility for banner ads in it. So I have now learnt coding in java and I am now making apps in java.
The answer to this question, if someone else is interested is that tasker can invoke html banner ads with the help of webview object if your preferred ad network supports this format, but to make real and native apps, we need to learn java.

admob?
You can get benefits by advertising.
Each advertising platform, there will be a detailed access way and their own SDK,

I am willing to monetize my app made with Tasker, is there any easy easy way to insert or inject ads into the apk without codes?
As for paying the ad networks- are you looking to advertise your product or publish advertisements on your app? I guess it depends how many users you have! If you want to both promote your app and monetize your audience base, you should consider choosing a cross-promotional advertising company. I can give suggestions, but for now I suggest you google App cross promotion companies and pick the one that is best for you.
As for the tool kit, it again depends on the company, but a good company will have the option of SDK, API S2S, open RTB, JS tag, etc
ad mediation !!
hey , if still need answer , ther is some mediation website where you upload your apk and they put their sdk in it with some banner or interstitel ads but still limited as tyou can't control where ads will show up, only at the begining or the exit .
So being this thread has been revived, Ad networks do not put ads in your apps, you have to put the ad networks into your app. This is normally done by taking hours and hours of your precious time coding a SDK into your project. Boring.....
Using Enhance, you can now integrate all of the services that providers offer without ever having to touch an SDK again. With little to NO coding at all and without touching source code, Enhance® is the easiest way to integrate 3rd party services into your project or to keep them up to date. (Ads, Mediation, Analytics, Attribution, Crash Reporting and more) No more SDK integration!!!
We even have a "ZERO CODE" option for certain features!!!
For more information on Enhance, just follow this link : https://goo.gl/kufiQQ

The point is being able to choose the placement and format for in-app ads easily. That's why mediation works so well.
Dear all,
I'm relatively a novice in Android and I'm interested to learn more about it. Have started a small project experimenting with the extraction of location info from apps like Google Maps in Android Mobile Phones.
Any idea whether it is technically possible, say using ADB to interact with the phone and through which, extract past location info that the user had used Google Maps to plot for a destination. Basically having the ability to piece together where an user had gone to, if he/she had used Google Maps before.
If possible, how so? Any suggestions/directions will be appreciated and thanks
Hey all,
There's an app I need help updating to either api 24/26 . The app which is meant to interface with the Joyetech Ocular/Ocular C, which is on Google Play,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zijing.joyetech
The problem is, the devs of the app hasn't updated it since api 22, and after sending emails to the devs on multiple channels, there's no response.
Looking at the logcat of an app's activity, the Android app derives keys using the SHA1PRNG algorithm from the Crypto provider, and as of Android N, apps must start using a real key derivation function.
My issue is that:
1: I'm very mediocre at things like this. (Decompile, import into Eclipse, edit as needed, then recompile.)
2: My laptop doesn't have enough space to install Eclipse.
Would anyone with more knowledge on this subject be willing to update this apk for me?
my app will be used by multiple users, where app will track users location in real time.
I want to map everyone's location on single map to show who else is nearby. Currently i'm thinking of getting users location and saving in DB and updating every minute or so
If there are any other ideas or if there are any readymade libraries available to achieve this would be great. thanks in advance.
Hello All,
I'm working on a project focused on AAOS and one of its requirements is to be able to provide for the developers' access to the Google APIs contained in the GMS, or GAS in the automotive world.
The problem I'm facing is that the platform owner does not want to go through the process of Google Approval, which forbids him from using GAS.
Since rebuilding all the APPs isn't a solution that we are looking forward to, I would like to ask if there is any other solution to access Google APIs legally. Is there another partner that makes it easier to integrate these APIs? Are there legal limitations that forbid me from using other Google APIs providers, if any exists?
Thank you all in advance.
