How to Show Ads on Every Third Button Click in Flutter: A Simple Guide

Have you ever faced a scenario in your Flutter app where you want to show an ad after every three button clicks? You might already have the logic for displaying an ad on the third click, but you’d also like the ad to show on the first click and then subsequently after every third click. This guide will walk you through the steps to implement this functionality in a simple and efficient way.

Understanding the Requirements

To summarize, you want the ads to appear as follows:

Show the ad on the first button click

Show the ad on the fourth button click

Show the ad on the seventh button click

Continue this pattern for every subsequent third click

This means that each time a user clicks the button three times, the ad should be displayed again.

The Solution

To achieve this functionality, we will maintain a click counter and check its value each time the button is clicked. Here’s how to implement this in Flutter.

Step-by-Step Code Breakdown

Initialize the Counter

At the start, you need a variable to keep track of the number of clicks. We will increment this counter each time the button is pressed.

Button Press Functionality

Implement the button click functionality using the press attribute. Here, you will increment clickCount and check if the ad should be displayed.

Explanation of The Code

Increment the Counter: Each time the button is pressed, we increment clickCount by one.

Check Ad Display Condition:

clickCount == 1: This checks if it’s the first click.

clickCount % 3 == 0: This checks if the current click count is a multiple of three, ensuring ads appear on the 3rd, 6th, 9th, etc.

Show the Ad: If either condition is true, the _showInterstitialAd() function is called to display the ad.

Navigate to the Next Page: If the ad is not displayed, the navigation to another page occurs successfully.

What to Avoid

From your initial implementation, you could have trouble with the code popping the ad every time you click due to incorrect logic. Ensure your conditions accurately reflect the requirement. Always remember to increment the clickCount only once per button press.

Conclusion

In this guide, you learned how to display ads in your Flutter application using a counter that triggers the ad display on specified conditions. This approach not only promotes user engagement but also ensures that your monetization strategy is effectively implemented.

With a clear structure and well-placed checks, you can maintain the desired behavior of your UI components while providing your users with the best experience. Happy coding!
