This is just a warning. Should be easily fixed though.

[KiddoV]

How do you fix it? I would like my console to be cleaner.
Thanks,

You will need to update the web version of the plugin.

[KiddoV]

I ran npm install @capacitor-community/admob@latest
It still have the warning.

I ran npm install @capacitor-community/admob@latest
It still have the warning.

I mean in the source code of the plugin.

[KiddoV]

I see, but it is not a good practice to change the source code.

I think I will just do it like this:

if (Capacitor.isNativePlatform()) {
    admobInitialize();
}

Since my app is only on mobile platform.

Is it possible that this still shows up for you, even after adding the if-statement? I am not entirely sure but I think for me it does

[KiddoV]

After adding the if statement, it will ensure AdMob only run on mobile platform, so I am certain this warning will no longer display on the web platform when you open it in a browser. You can try for yourself and see.
