Engine integrated Ads SDK fails to initialize on iOS with .ipa builds

Ads

-

Ads fails to initialize on iOS with .ipa build or when published to TestFlight/App Store

1. What happened

Also reported by several users starting in 5.5.0p3. Works when deployed/testing locally on iOS device directly from Xcode, however fails when building .ipa file and installing that.

From Game Performance service have following report for a published build on Apple TestFlight:
EntryPointNotFoundException: Unable to find an entry point named 'UnityAdsEngineSetReadyCallback' in '__InternalDynamic'.

Workaround is to use Ads SDK from asset store package: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/66123

2. How we can reproduce it using the example you attached

1. Clone https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/unity-ads-engineintegration-test
2. Test locally by running from Xcode, verify ads are shown
3. In Xcode, select Project->Archive
4. In the Archives window, select Export -> "Save for Development Deployment"
5. Install the produced .ipa file, e.g. using iTunes

Expected: Ads are shown
Actual: Ads not shown

    still happens in 2018.1.4
    videoAds showing in editor (i.e. its test-dummy), but when building to phone,
    nothing happens after calling void ShowRewardedAd()
    like described in the docs:
    https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Advertisements.Advertisement.Show.html

    This is happening me now in 2018.1. Is there a fix for it. Will the ads sdk still work now?

    This is actually still stopping ads in Unity 5.6.1f1 in IOS builds. For future bugs like this kind please please put a warning or something. The problem: it looks working in the editor and in test builds and when you push it to IOS (Which is a pain in the arse to pass review) you see it is not working?!! I am not even talking about the lost advertisement revenue.
