    I really want to add reward videos but there seems to be no documentation on the subject. I followed all the sdk instruction as far as I understood it and still nothing works.

    Can Build Box create a video tutorial or something on this otherwise HeyZap is completely worthless.

    We got BuildBox because of it's accessibility for those who don't know alot of programming and HeyZap is a feature that seems to require a high level of that knowledge and experience.

    +1 We need this as well. It seems that HeyZap works fine on iOS, but it crashes the game on Android. :(

    The problem is there is no tutorial on exactly how to integrate heyzap. I'm trying my best to follow the guides but it's not working. I know I'm doing something worng but since there is no guide I have no way of knowing what that is.

    I guess we'll just finish developing under the assumption Heyzap doesn't actually exists as a feature yet. Oh well.

    As long as you are *NOT* using mediation, HeyZap works the same as any other ad network. If you are having a specific problem I would suggest sending your BBDOC to support@buildbox.com so we can advise.

    Oh, so we can't use mediation at all? That was my problem then. The modal pop up just says not to configure ad networks in Buildbox. It doesn't say you can't you Heyzap for mediation.

    We don't support mediation with HeyZap out of the box, it's not practical for us to do so at this time. If you want to use mediation you need to only include HeyZap in Buildbox and add/configure the rest of the networks according to HeyZap instructions.

    You will likely need a programmer to help with this. Basically you need to drag/drop the other networks directly into your exported project. There may or may not be further work needed depending on the particular ad network that Hey Zap supports.

    Okay, this is starting to make more sense. Seriously, you guys should make a guide for Heyzap to make this information more clear. I'll test out a build later without using mediation since we don't poses the programming chops to integrate mediation.

    Thanks.

    I'll see about tweaking the text on the modal to be more clear. The main point is that HeyZap without mediation is just like any other ad network we support. We don't support HeyZap with mediation at this time, (therefore no guide) but it does work if you want to hire a programmer or you are comfortable doing the manual labor.

    We leave Buildbox (somewhat) open so people who want to tweak can, we don't want to restrict what can be done (within reason) but sometimes that can be confusing. We know this, but are comfortable with the risk (of confusion) thus far. We're ALWAYS open to making clarification where possible.

    Hey Andy... For Heyzap... Which id do we put into Bbox? Is it the Pub ID or the API Key ID? Also... is there anything we need to configure in Heyzapp as well as Xcode or Eclipse for this to work? Thanks :)

    Publisher ID, no need to do anything in Eclipse or Xcode if you are not using mediation.

    Hey @Andy, the only reason we using Heyzap is the Mediation, if you said no mediation then what's the point of using it now?
    +1 to the detail tutorial of integration Heyzap using Mediation :D
