Answer 2

Hello.

I spotted this entry and the response from January 2021. I am wondering whether you have any update on this?

I am looking for options to secure a Xamarin.Forms app (to be migrated to MAUI at some point). When I search in Google there are plenty of commercial products listed, not so many free, open-source ones though.

I am wondering whether Microsoft can recommend a trusted provider (for Xamarin.Forms and MAUI)? We currently use Dotrfuscator but the product has some issues, so we are looking to replace it.
