Debugger won't connect to a Xamarin iOS project when a Settings.bundle is included #18490

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

[severity:I'm unable to use this version] VS 2022 latest version on Windows 11 stable channel, latest updates iPhone 8 on iOS 16

Start a new Xamarin Forms project with an iOS target
Attach an iOS device
Configure hot reload
Make sure debugging on the iOS device works
Add a Settings.bundle with a Root.plist
Start debugging
Open the app on the phone
Notice that VS keeps waiting for the debugger to connect

Expected: debugger connects, even when a Settings.bundle is present

I think I see where the problem is, but one more question: did any settings you configured in the Settings bundle work previously?

Looks like we copy the project's Settings.bundle/Root.plist and overwrite the Settings.bundle/Root.plist file provided by the prebuilt app bundle (for Hot Reload), without injecting any debug settings into the Root.plist.
