Slow initialization makes it impossible to show app open ads on cold start

[MSDarwish2000]

On a real/non-test device, AppLovin SDK initialization takes several seconds in addition to the ad loading time itself. For banners and interstitials it's ok. But for app open ads, it has a great impact as normally any app splash screen should stay less than that for a good user experience. So, the app open ad is almost guaranteed not to appear on cold start.

I think faster initialization or app open-only initialization that is fast enough to make it at least possible for it to appear on some cold starts would help greatly. Any other suggestions that may help me are welcome.

@MSDarwish2000 - Could you try the following code to see if it lesses the time for our init callback to be called?

        AppLovinSdkSettings settings = new AppLovinSdkSettings( this );
        settings.setExtraParameter( "initialization_delay_ms", "0" );
        
        AppLovinSdk sdk = AppLovinSdk.getInstance( settings, this );
        sdk.setMediationProvider( "max" );
        sdk.initializeSdk( (AppLovinSdkConfiguration config) -> {
            ... 
        } );
