Xamarin iOS app crashes on startup after updating to iOS 14.6

Hi, my app has a login and then a home page with donwloads lists from API.

After upgrading the iOS to 14.6 version it never starts. With earlier version it does.

And also I'm getting a warning that the Xamarin.ios is not found.

We upgraded everything up to date so we can compile with the latest versions.

Error: System.NullReferenceException
Mensaje = Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Method Main.cs On IOS package

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

using Foundation;
using UIKit;

namespace SOS.iOS
{
public class Application
{
// This is the main entry point of the application.
static void Main(string[] args)

    {
        // if you want to use a different Application Delegate class from "AppDelegate"
        // you can specify it here.
        UIApplication.Main(args, null, "AppDelegate");
    }
}

}

My stacktrace goes as follows:

    Same problem here: Even with Xamarin.iOS 14.20.0.10 our apps DO NOT run on iOS 14.6 on a physical device!!!
    Simulator runs fine but it is stuck to iOS 14.5.

    On iOS 14.5.1 we had no problem at all...

    EDIT: A "Hello World" Xamarin.Forms Shell app is working so I guess it has to do with a third party library or maybe a custom renderer. Not sure about this.
    I try digging into it and keep you guys posted.

    EDIT2: It is a linker problem when building your Xamarin iOS app from a windows machine running VS 2019 version 16.10.x.
    I had no problems with VS 2019 version 16.8.6 in the meantime there were changes in the Xamarin.iOS packages which are causing these issues.

    EDIT 3: The solution is to disable incremental builds! Microsoft broke that since VS 16.10.x. Just disable it within iOS project settings and you can debug again.
    See xamarin-ios-app-crashing-with-error-dyld-library-not-loaded-mapped-file-has-no on stackoverflow.

    if you are using "UserDialogs.Instance.ShowLoading()" at startup page, remove them all.

    it worked for me
