I am using VS 2022 ver 17.4.1 and deploying my Maui app to my physical device I am getting System.NullReferenceException
Message=Object reference not set to an instance of an object
using the following code
string address = "Microsoft Building 25 Redmond WA USA";
var m = await Geocoding.Default.GetLocationsAsync(address);
Thanks for your help

Anonymous2022-11-24T06:25:20.79+00:00 I test it in VS 2022 17.5.0 Preview 1.0 and my MAUI version is 6.0.547, my test device is a Google Pixel Android 10.0. It is working on my side. I can get the location data.
May I know which platforms(Windows/Android/iOS) that it does not work?
Besides, please share the version of VS and MAUI as well.As Note: How to write a quality question on Microsoft Q&A | Microsoft Learn

I am using VS 2022 ver 17.4.1 and my test device is a Microsoft Duo 1. I have also tried iOS 16 pro emulator. Here is my maui version.
Thanks for looking into this.

It fails on my physical device as well.
Could it be that it has been fixed in the pre release version
