iPhone application developers take note, the new version of our iPhone software development kit (SDK) is now available and we encourage you to upgrade to it as soon as possible.

In this new version of our SDK we have added support for new social, search, and rich media ad units to answer demand from our advertisers. The new SDK, with the support for the new ad units, will help you better monetize your app in the coming months. We have also added features that will enable us to test and implement changes to our legacy ad units that will deliver a better user experience.

To download the new SDK, login to your AdMob account, visit “Sites & Apps,” and click on “Setup” to go to the Site Install Code page for your iPhone app.

For developers building applications using the iPhone 3.0 SDK, we have the official version of the AdMob SDK for use with the iPhone 3.0 SDK that can be found in the “extras” folder in the AdMob libraries. This library was built with the 3.0 GM SDK, and is thus suitable for submission to the App Store.

As always, don’t hesitate to contact support at support@admob.com if you have any questions and join our iPhone SDK for further updates at admob-iphone-sdk@googlegroups.com.
