Share Extension Fails to Load on Real Device After Adding Microsoft.Intune.Maui.Essentials.iOS in .NET MAUI, Works on Simulator

Question

I'm working on a .NET MAUI project with a Share Extension for iOS, and I’ve run into an issue where the extension works on the iOS simulator but fails to load on a real device after adding the Microsoft.Intune.Maui.Essentials.iOS package to the Share Extension project.

When I try to run the Share Extension on a real device, it opens briefly and then closes immediately. The main MAUI project works perfectly fine without any issues. Interestingly, if I remove the Microsoft.Intune.Maui.Essentials.iOS package from the Share Extension project, the extension works fine on the real device.

Has anyone encountered this issue or have suggestions for troubleshooting? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
