Any suggestions on how to address this issue?

Hi @imsam67 - thanks for getting in touch.

I don't see the same behaviour here. Is there any chance you could provide a small sample app that demonstrates this behaviour?

[rodolfoBee]

Same issue has been reported via support.

We have the same issue (reported via support as per @rodolfoBee comment above) albiet .NET 8. but wanted to add some info about this issue that we've discovered. We've been chatting with a couple of others on Discord too but in the interests of consolidated info, will update here.

Our main dev environments are Win11P boxes, Visual Studio 2022 v17.12.4. We replicated this issue with a directly connected iPhone 13 running iOS 18.1.1. The issue always occurs when running debug to a directly connected iPhone.

The issue does not occur when debugging/building to a simulator hosted on a Mac (where the Win11P box is connected to that Mac. The issue also does not occur when debugging/building the App directly on the Mac to an iPhone which is connected to that Mac. Both Android and iOS builds (local) work when local simulator is selected.

We've tried with and without Hot Reload enabled (Debug > Options > Debugging > XAML Hot Reload) but no effect on the outcome.

Hopefully some of that is useful! It's something to do with the environment and does seem to center around debugging on a directly connected device.

@aritchie is this something you'd be able to look into?

Hot Reload doesn't work with static libraries which Sentry has. You need to build/deploy from a Mac to get it to work

[jamescrosswell]

Awesome, thanks @aritchie .

Nothing we can do in this repo then (@mads195 that explains why you had a similar issue with RayGun).

I think about all we can do is maybe add some into to the troubleshooting section of our MAUI docs. I'll create a separate issue for that though.
