  • To find out what is the problem with the Ad control, register to the AdControlError event and look at the e.ErrorCode and e.ErrorDescription.

  • I don't think that "pinning" the ad control at the bottom of a ScrollViewer is a good idea. You'd better place both the ScrollViewer and the AdControl inside a Grid with two rows.

Many ad-providers are able to detect the emulator and turn off the ads. Deploy to a real device to test them.

how can I "pin" my ad to scroll at the bottom of the screen with scrollviewer?

Just change the layout of your page and put the adcontrol outside of the scrollviewer. For instance:

<Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
        <RowDefinition Height="80" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <ScrollViewer Grid.Row="0">
        <!-- Whatever -->
    </ScrollViewer>

    <AdControl Grid.Row="1" AdUnit="..." />
</Grid>
