Receiving Delegate Methods for iAd Banners iOS 7

In iOS 7, ADBannerView no longer needs to be created manually. Instead, they can be requested with a simple self.canDisplayBannerAds = YES;

Now, I cannot set my View Controller as the banner delegate because there is no banner for me to access (to my knowledge).

I need to know when the banner is tapped and when that action is dismissed so I can properly pause/start my Sprite Kit game.

How am I supposed to have these delegate methods called so I can properly respond to the user's actions?

AFAIK, there is nothing in the UIView Controller iAD Additions that explains how to set the delegate for the banners.

Do I need to create the banners manually, or is there a way to achieve this while still using the newer API's?

Unfortunately, if you want to use the delegate methods, you will need to set up your iAd Banner manually. Even if you make your vc the delegate, by just using self.canDisplayBannerAds = YES, will not call the methods you need. In my sprite kit game, I made all the banners manually so I could take care of pausing the game and going to the background. Making them give you the control you are looking for. Good luck.
