Error: Version conflict detected for Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat

The following error may occur when updating NuGet packages (or adding a new package) with a Xamarin.Forms project that uses Xamarin.Essentials:

NU1107: Version conflict detected for Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat. Reference the package directly from the project to resolve this issue.
 MyApp -> Xamarin.Essentials 1.3.1 -> Xamarin.Android.Support.CustomTabs 28.0.0.3 -> Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat (= 28.0.0.3)
 MyApp -> Xamarin.Forms 3.1.0.583944 -> Xamarin.Android.Support.v4 25.4.0.2 -> Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat (= 25.4.0.2).

The problem is mismatched dependencies for the two NuGets. This can be resolved by manually adding a specific version of the dependency (in this case Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat) that can support both.

To do this, add the NuGet that is the source of the conflict manually, and use the Version list to select a specific version. Currently version 28.0.0.3 of the Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat & Xamarin.Android.Support.Core.Util NuGet will resolve this error.

If run into any issues or find a bug please report it on the Xamarin.Essentials GitHub repository.
