Cannot push .net MAUI app to iPhone from Windows Computer - ApplicationVerificationFailed

Up until this week I have been using Xamarin.Forms for my mobile development. I got a request for a simple app and I thought I would take this opportunity to use .net MAUI. Things were going fine and I tried the app on Windows, on Android and then attempted to try it on iPhone. I cannot get Visual Studio 2022 17.3.0 Preview 2.0 to install the app on the iPhone.

I have a paid Apple Developer account and I can install and run my Xamarin.Forms apps on an iPhone just fine. For my Xamarin.Forms app I use Automatic Provisioning for bundle signing.

I can't even get the blank .net MAUI app to install on the iPhone. I tried the default values of Bundle Signing (Scheme = Manual, Signing Identity = Developer (automatic)). I have tried Automatic Provisioning (configuring Automatic Provisioning game me a green check mark). Every time I push that little green play button I get ApplicationVerificationFailed (A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found).

Visual Studio 2022 17.3.0 Preview 2.0 on Windows 11 64-bit.
iPhone 11 Pro Max - software version 15.5 (plugged directly into the Windows machine)

Did .net MAUI devolve from Xamarin.Forms in this capability or am I missing something?

Thanks

This issue is currently being tracked in this thread.

Please follow up with that thread closely as our team will provide an update if either more information is needed, a workaround is available, or the issue is resolved.

Fortunately, per this thread, the workaround is that we can add a new entitlements file to your .NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) app project, and add a new XML file named Entitlements.plist to the Platforms\iOS\ folder of your app project. Then add the following XML to the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
</dict>
</plist>

One step closer is better than not...

Thanks To Alexander, I was able to at least install the app on an iPhone (app doesn't work but at least it installed and I was able to launch it).

The work around can be found here.

Basically, I copied the Entitlements.plist file from my working Xamarin.Forms iOS app and pasted it under Platforms/iOS folder in my MAUI project (and removed some keys within the file).

Thanks Steve and Alexander for your contributions.
