Over the past several months, we’ve been focused on refining both the experience for players and the tools available to developers. SDK 3.5 is the result—introducing new capabilities designed to simplify integration, expand control, and support stronger performance across the board.
This version brings powerful new capabilities—from deep linking to dynamic ad UI controls, and a smarter Unity Integration Manager—all designed to help you build, monetize, and optimize with greater ease and flexibility.
What’s New in SDK 3.5
1. A New Unity Integration Manager — Smarter Setup, Simpler Updates
Making Unity integration more seamless has been a key focus in this release. That’s why we’ve introduced the Integration Manager, a new tool accessible directly from the “Odeeo SDK” tab in your Unity editor. Once you’ve added the SDK, this panel gives you streamlined access to all core setup and maintenance tools.
- Config Tab: Add your keys with just a few clicks—no additional coding required.
- SDK Updates: Get notified automatically when a new SDK version is out. Compare versions, view detailed changelogs, and understand what’s new at a glance.
- For major updates, you’ll be guided through any necessary code adjustments to ensure full feature compatibility.
This isn’t just a UI improvement—it’s a complete rethink of the Unity experience, aimed at saving time and reducing friction.
2. Icon Dynamic Positioning — Seamless Ad UX
With SDK 3.5, developers can now move the ad icon dynamically while the ad is playing. This means the icon no longer needs to be locked to a static position—freeing up your UI and improving gameplay fluidity.
Whether it’s avoiding interactive buttons or preserving visibility of core game elements, this feature ensures a non-intrusive ad experience that adapts in real time.
3. Action Button Placement — Full UI Control
We’re giving you more control over the placement of essential action buttons, like mute and close. These can now be custom-positioned to better fit your game’s interface, preserving your aesthetic and improving usability.
This seemingly small detail makes a big difference when tailoring the ad experience to your unique layout and design preferences.
4. Deep Links — Precision Navigation for Promotions and Campaigns
One of the most powerful additions in SDK 3.5 is full support for deep linking. With this feature, users can now be directed to specific locations within your app or external destinations via audio ads.
- Promote an in-app purchase directly from an audio ad and drive users straight to the store.
- Highlight a specific bundle or product page to support time-limited offers.
- Run advertiser campaigns that direct users to exact product or app store pages, enabling more relevant and effective marketing.
This functionality enhances the value of audio ads—turning them into actionable, trackable experiences that deliver results.
5. Extended User IDs — Smarter Targeting with UID2.0, RampID, and More
SDK 3.5 introduces the ability to pass extended user IDs (including UID2.0, RampID, ID5, and others) through the SDK, automatically and securely.
This means better support for identity resolution across platforms, giving demand partners the ability to deliver more personalized, better-targeted campaigns—all while reducing manual implementation effort for you.
The result? Higher engagement, improved monetization, and seamless compliance with evolving privacy standards.
What’s Next?
SDK 3.5 is another step toward building the most seamless and powerful in-game audio monetization platform available. But we’re not stopping here.
