EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

Rendering a Map

HOW TO REPRODUCE

1. Add Xamarin.Forms.GoogleMaps Nuget Package as shown in the repository
2. Add a simple Map to the MainPage.xaml
3. Run the App

Did you manage to fix this? I'm going round in circles with the same issue

[GreenleafDk]

Running in the same circles. The bit question seems to be why not everyone is. What makes us "special"?

[mosteiro12]

Same error using MAUI IOS
