# Android SDK 4.9.0

Android SDK 4.9.0 adds the Ad Quality Gate, so you can screen every loaded ad before it reaches your app. It also reports the size of loaded ads, and lets CloudX-rendered fullscreen video show more end cards.

## What’s new

- Ad Quality Gate: Register a `CloudXAdQualityGate` with `CloudX.setAdQualityGate()` to screen each loaded ad before `onAdLoaded`. A blocked ad is discarded and the SDK tries the next bid. A gate that times out or throws lets the ad through.
- Ad size: `CloudXAd.adSize` reports the size of a loaded ad in dp, such as 320x50 for banners and 300x250 for MRECs.
- Multiple end cards: CloudX-rendered fullscreen video ads can show more than two end cards when the creative provides them.
- Mediation Debugger: `CloudX.showMediationDebugger(context)` now opens only after SDK initialization completes, and returns `false` before that.

## Getting started

Update to `io.cloudx:sdk` 4.9.0 and recompile code built against 4.8.x. Custom implementations of `CloudXAd` must be rebuilt, and Java implementations must also add `getAdSize()`. Read the [Android integration docs](https://docs.cloudx.io/en/android/integration) to get set up.
