.Net iOS Issue " GoogleMaps.bundle to be part of your target under 'Copy Bundle Resources'"

[Gckumar999]

Steps: Created a New .Net iOS project Installed latest package of Xamarin.Google.iOS.Maps 6.0.1.1

Open Appdelegate.cs Add code MapServices.ProvideApiKey(<API key>); MapServices.SharedServices;

Once I run the app in iPhone device, i'm getting the error as Message (ObjCRuntime.ObjCException) "Objective-C exception thrown. Name: GMSServicesException Reason: Google Maps SDK for iOS requires GoogleMaps.bundle to be part of your target under 'Copy Bundle Resources'

The above code is working in simulator but not on device. Is there any workaround for this? Adding the IDE details
