Hi everyone, IPA file is not getting created for my Xamarin.Forms iOS app. Usually like in earlier times, I used to check the IPA file inside bin/iPhone/Release or click "Show IPA file on Build Server" and find the same. But now both options are missing. Is this an issue with the VS2019 version or a bug? VS 2019 version 16.7.7
I tried creating new certificate, provisioning profile. Still same error.
But I found the IPA at the following location :
E:\Projects\ProjectName\iOS\bin\iPhone\Release\device-builds\iphone7.2-12.4.4
