xcode 10.2 is currently selected in preferences and is currently incompatible

Question

I have Mojave 10.14.6 & Xcode 10.2.
When I am trying to build ios app getting error xcode 10.2 is currently selected in preferences and is currently incompatible with the version of Xamarin.iOS being used.

When tried to upgrade the xcode 12.5 getting message "You have macOS 10.14.6. The application requires macOS 11.0 or later."

What may be the work around, please help!!

Hello @Mrinal Bakshi ,​

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

Xamarin.iOS 12 requires Xcode 10.2 (or 10.3) and Xcode 10.2 requires a Mac running macOS 10.14.3 (Mojave) or newer. Since Xamarin.iOS 13.16, the latest features and APIs require Xcode 11.4. And Apple Xcode 11.4 requires a Mac running macOS 10.15.2 (Catalina) or newer which is higher than your mac's. To use the lastest Xamarin.iOS, please update the macOS version on your mac to be applicable with the new version Xcode.

Check the doc: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/ios/release-notes/14/14.19
