Workaround

Build the iOS project. Now the variable is recognized. This is not an issue with NetStandard projects, only Shared.

Thanks for reporting this. if it doesn't happen on net standard, or multitargetted project, it's very unlikely that we'll look at it, as Shared Assets Projects are deprecated for a quite long time now.

@StephaneDelcroix Thanks for the confirmation. I just learned that Shared Projects were removed as an option in 8.5 P2, so this is unlikely to continue being an issue for new projects.
