# Adapter Stabilizer

## Introduction

MAX SDK includes adapters for multiple ad networks, and they are updated frequently. Keeping adapters on the latest stable versions helps maintain performance and reliability.

The Adapter Stabilizer enforces the QA-approved adapter version guidelines to reduce QA rejections and flag potentially outdated adapters. Stable adapter versions are maintained by the Lion Studios QA team.

## Usage

### Automatic

* After installation, a pop-up will appear if any outdated adapters are detected. Click Review & Update to open the Adapter Service window.

2. In the Lion Max Adapter Stabilizer window, you’ll see a list of all required adapters along with their verified stable versions for both Android and iOS. Click “Install and Update Adapters to Verified Stable Versions” to automatically install and update all required adapters.

3. After the initial installation, this screen will help you manage adapters going forward. It shows which adapters are outdated, above the recommended version, or not installed. Click “Update Adapters to Verified Stable Versions” to update all adapters to the recommended stable versions.

#### Color Coding (Adapter Service Window)

* <mark style="color:$info;">Grey</mark>: Adapter is not installed.
* <mark style="color:red;">Red</mark>: Installed version is below the QA stable version, or the installed version is on the known-broken list.
* <mark style="color:yellow;">Yellow</mark>: Installed version is newer than the QA stable version.
* <mark style="color:green;">Green</mark>: QA stable version is installed.

## Limitations

* This tool does not manage the MAX SDK version or the AppLovin adapter version (these are linked and must be updated together).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://lionstudios.gitbook.io/readme/features/adapter-stabilizer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
