How do I fix "Failed assertion: line 227 pos 12: '_allAds[id] !=null': is not true."?

Question

I am trying to add banner ads to my app. I want the banner to display on certain pages of my app but once you get to certain pages, I want the banner to go away. So I am getting my banner to show up and it is working. I also found using

super.dispose();
myBanner?.dispose();

on my buttons on the onPressed will get rid of the banner. When I pop back to the page that loads the banner, though, I get an error:

I/flutter ( 7058): The following assertion was thrown while handling a gesture: I/flutter ( 7058): 'package:firebase_admob/firebase_admob.dart': Failed assertion: line 227 pos 12: '_allAds[id] != I/flutter ( 7058): null': is not true.

Then I can not click on any buttons that have my dispose on the onPressed.

I've tried adding the super.dispose() as I only had the myBanner?.dispose(); before, but the result was the same. I am having trouble finding very much info on admobs.

Here is how I set up my banner:

    BannerAd myBanner = BannerAd(
      // Replace the testAdUnitId with an ad unit id from the AdMob dash.
      // https://developers.google.com/admob/android/test-ads
      // https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/test-ads
      adUnitId: adUnitId,
      size: AdSize.smartBanner,
      targetingInfo: targetingInfo,
      listener: (MobileAdEvent event) {
        print("BannerAd event is $event");
      },
    );

Then in my class:

    class EnMainMenu extends StatefulWidget {
      @override
      State<StatefulWidget> createState() => _MainMenuState();
    }
    
    class _MainMenuState extends State<EnMainMenu> {
      @override
      void initState() {
        super.initState();
    
        myBanner
          ..load()
          ..show(anchorOffset: 10.0, anchorType: AnchorType.bottom);
      }

and how I'm using my buttons:

 Align(
                alignment: Alignment.topRight,
                child: Container(
                    padding: EdgeInsets.all(20),
                    child: IconButton(
                      icon: Icon(
                        Icons.settings,
                        color: Colors.black45,
                        size: 40,
                      ),
                      onPressed: () {
                        myBanner?.dispose();
                        super.dispose();
                        Navigator.of(context).pushNamed('/EnSettings');
                      },
                    ))),

If there is a better way to get the banner to show and hide on certain pages, please let me know. I am pretty new to flutter and dart. In the future, I would also be looking to add interstitial ads as well.

Answer 1

As of firebase_admob "v0.9.3+2" this code works for me

void disposeAd() {
    log.d("Calling disposeAd");
    try {

      _bannerAd?.dispose();
      _bannerAd = null;

    } catch (ex) {
      log.e("banner dispose error");
    }
  }

Answer 2

I fixed this issue by commenting //assert(_allAds[id] != null); in firebase_admob.dart file. I'm not sure if this is the best solution but it worked fine for me.
