How to upgrade to the latest Firebase Crashlytics SDK

mac121

To continue using Crashlytics, make sure to upgrade your apps to the Firebase Crashlytics SDK versions 17.0.0+ for Android, 4.0.0+ for iOS, and 6.15.0+ for Unity before November 15, 2020.

We have received this mail from Google/Firebase team. I can see upgrade packages for native Android/iOS. But are those corresponding latest packages available now for my Xamarin.Forms app?? I couldn't find proper information on this with 15 days or so remaining to work on the upgrade. Any help please?

You could separately implement it on each platform using
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Xamarin.Android.Crashlytics
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Xamarin.Firebase.iOS.Crashlytics
However, It seems they have all not supported the required version. You could raise issues on the github like:
https://github.com/xamarin/XamarinComponents/issues/956
https://github.com/xamarin/GoogleApisForiOSComponents/issues/436

Thanks for your response @LandLu

But it is quite strange to see that there is no solution that Xamarin provides to address this update which is supposed to be resolved in a short time

It is a Firebase package that doesn't belong to Microsoft.
You could try the binding library:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/android/platform/binding-java-library/
to convert the native code to C# by yourself.

mac121 - Is there any solution, apart from this binding library ?
