Bottom navigation + Drawer + Ads

Viewed 1648

According to latest guidelines for navigation bar it should be placed at the bottom of the screen, when Drawer with toolbar is placed at the top of the screen.

Taking that into account, where banner ads should be placed? According to the ad placement guidelines it should not be placed anywhere around clickable things. Previously with toolbar and tabhost ads could be placed at the bottom of the screen, now it seems that there is no place for the ads with such design. Is it?

In Admob's documentation on adaptive banners, the screenshots included by Google shows banner ads on top of the bottom navigation. Not a lawyer, I think it is okay to place as long as you provide enough room to click the navigation buttons and keeps other guidelines like the ads are not overlapping the views.
