how to debugging xamarin app in offline mode?

Question

I am debugging the xamarin app in offline mode. There are no triggers when I add break points and when I turn on the internet, all the points work.

Hello,​

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

VisualStudio doesn't provide the offline dubugger mode. To debug the mode, we need to keep the connection and start the app with the debugger attached to the app process(Debug > Start Debugging).

Check the doc:

If you don't want to connect an Android device to a computer using the usb cable, you could use wifi connection instead.
