Which admin extension are you using? How are you using? With a bundled app or using the mobile dev app?

Yes, that won’t work. The mobile dev app is a clean version of Defold without any native extensions (eg AdMob).

We will add a warning to the mobile dev app that it doesn’t contain any native extensions and add an option to bundle a dev app based on your current project. In the meantime you can follow the instructions in the page I linked.
