Hello,​

Based on your error and nugget package, your nugget package is designed for Xamarin.android, If you want to use it in xamarin.forms, please install it in ProjectName.Android project, do not install in share code project and ProjectName.ios project.

Then you need to set Compile using Android version (Target Framework) ** to **Android 12.

I installed Xamarin.Firebase.Auth in my project. My Xamarin.Forms version is 5.0.0.2478 and Xamarin.Essentials version is 1.7.3, I get error that remind me to install Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser, I install Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser 1.3.0.10, because Xamarin.Forms and Xamarin.Essentials requires Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser (>= 1.3.0.6 && < 1.4.0).

Best Regards,
