My application debugs fine on the iOS simulator, and it runs fine when I build and deploy an ipa file to the device. However, if I try to debug on the device (iPhone 9.3.1 and iPad 9.3), the app immediately crashes on startup. I am using Visual Studio w/ Xamarin. The problem seems to be build/configuration/version related since it works fine on the simulator and IPA file versions, but I just cannot figure out the problem.
Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 Xamarin 4.0.3.214 Xamarin.iOS 9.6.1.8
