@alzubitariq cloud you check something for me? could you download this repo and add Plugin.Maui.ImageCropper as reference to your maui project instead of nuget package. and add this code to the csproj file of Plugin.Maui.ImageCropper:

<!--hack from https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/10989--> 
  <PropertyGroup>
    <!-- Properties used to strip bitcode from frameworks when using Visual Studio for Mac -->
    <_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterAfterTargets Condition="'$(OS)'=='Unix'">_ExpandNativeReferences</_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterAfterTargets>
    <_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets Condition="'$(OS)'=='Unix'">_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksOnMac</_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets>

    <!-- Properties used to strip bitcode from frameworks when using Visual Studio for Windows -->
    <_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterAfterTargets Condition="'$(OS)'!='Unix'">_ComputeFrameworkFilesToPublish</_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterAfterTargets>
    <_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets Condition="'$(OS)'!='Unix'">_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksOnWindows</_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <Target Name="_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterTarget" Condition="'$(_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets)'!='' AND @(_FrameworkNativeReference-&gt;Count()) != 0" AfterTargets="$(_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterAfterTargets)" DependsOnTargets="$(_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksMasterDependsOnTargets)" />

  <Target Name="_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksOnMac" Condition="('$(OutputType)'!='Library' OR '$(IsAppExtension)'=='True') AND '$(_SdkIsSimulator)'=='False'">

    <!-- Find the bitcode_strip command -->
    <Exec Command="xcrun -find bitcode_strip" ConsoleToMSBuild="true">
      <Output TaskParameter="ConsoleOutput" PropertyName="_BitcodeStripCommand" />
    </Exec>

    <!-- Strip the bitcode from frameworks -->
    <Exec Command="$(_BitcodeStripCommand) %(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity) -r -o %(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity)" />
  </Target>

  <Target Name="_StripBitcodeFromFrameworksOnWindows" Condition="('$(OutputType)'!='Library' OR '$(IsAppExtension)'=='True') AND '$(_SdkIsSimulator)'=='False' AND '$(IsMacEnabled)'=='true'">

    <!-- Strip the bitcode from frameworks -->
    <Exec SessionId="$(BuildSessionId)" Command="&quot;%24(xcrun -find bitcode_strip)&quot; %(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity) -r -o %(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity)" />

    <CopyFileFromBuildServer SessionId="$(BuildSessionId)" File="%(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity)" TargetFile="%(_FrameworkNativeReference.Identity)" />
  </Target>

and check if it can be uploaded to apple

The error above has nothing to this library. as it does not like MauiSplash.storyboard. But anyway, I've updated the project. just pull latest changes. and add reference to your project and build and push to apple.

Also, there is demo project inside this repo. It can be built and run.

[alzubitariq]

@Alex-Dobrynin Issue still exist unfortunately....

[Alex-Dobrynin]

Unfortunately, ios binding library TOCropViewController was not made by me, and I cannot just recompile it. But I have in plans to change binding libraries for android and ios to another ones. but, unfortunately it will not be as soon as I want.

I will not close this issue.

[Alex-Dobrynin]

@alzubitariq also read this issue please https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/10989 look into your csproj file is there everything the same as in workaround in that issue

[Alex-Dobrynin]

Fixed in latest nuget version
