Android API 34 and Xcode 15 SDKs (iOS and iPadOS 17, macOS 14) are the final versions Xamarin targets.
After May 1, 2024, Microsoft will no longer provide fixes, updates, or online technical assistance for Xamarin. This means you will not receive security updates that can protect your machine from harmful viruses and other malicious software.
The 'Current' release for Xamarin includes new features that may undergo future change based on feedback. These releases are suitable for applications in active development and receive critical fixes for security, reliability, or support for new release versions of third-party dependencies.
Current releases are supported until May 1, 2024, on the assumption that current dependencies such as Xcode and Android Tools do not change from the last release. Support will not be guaranteed for any newer releases of third-party dependencies.
