如何通过代码获取Android端Google Ads SDK（AdMob）版本？

Got it, I totally get wanting to replicate that handy iOS SDK version check on Android—luckily there are a couple straightforward ways to do this, especially for your 17.1.1 SDK version:

Method 1: Use the Official MobileAds API (Recommended) #

Google provides a dedicated method to fetch the SDK version directly, which mirrors iOS's [GADRequest sdkVersion] perfectly. Just use the MobileAds.getVersion() method:

// Make sure to import the required class first
import com.google.android.gms.ads.MobileAds;

// Fetch the version string
String adSdkVersion = MobileAds.getVersion();
// This will return exactly the version you declared in Gradle, like "17.1.1"

This method is clean, purpose-built for this use case, and fully supported in the 17.1.1 version of the AdMob SDK you’re using.

Method 2: Fetch via Package Manager (Fallback for Older SDKs) #

If you ever need to support older SDK versions where MobileAds.getVersion() isn’t available, you can pull the version from the SDK’s package info:

try {
    // Get package info for the AdMob SDK's underlying package
    PackageInfo packageInfo = getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.google.android.gms.ads", 0);
    String adSdkVersion = packageInfo.versionName;
} catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
    // Handle the rare case where the package isn't found (unlikely if you have the SDK added)
    e.printStackTrace();
}

This works by accessing the version name of the AdMob SDK’s Android package, which matches the version you specified in your Gradle dependency.
