Ios with Ads?

I have been reading around that some devs are doing some money with ads on their games. I think its online ads, not sure.

Can I do this using MMF2?

The iOS exporter allows iAds to appear in your app.

iAds is added by Apple automatically depending on how much traffic your app gets. You do need to enable it via the iTunesConnect site as the ads are fed to the app from Apple.

Interestingly enough, iTunes is down today for maintenance.

Yes, that's what I did with my Crazee Bee app that I ported over from my Flash version.

iAds does not pay a lot but that's not the reason I make games for myself :D

Thats a good idea, because I have 3 games that are like... B+ quality, and I would like to release then without running the risk of "creating a bad name for myself since start", if the game is bad, its free, so no problems.

And I am working on a new engine for all my games, and then later I intend to redo those, A+ quality, and then charge for then. =]

Something is better then nothing :D though watch out you don't become known for releasing too many lower tier games it might ruin your luck with a higher tier release.
