title: Converting a Xamarin.forms iOS app into Xcode app
body: <p>I am having a problem but can't seem to find the much-needed information online, having trawled through the internet. I have Xamarin.forms iOS app that I want to test. I cannot run iOS in windows so transferred to mac. </p>
  
  <p>To inspect elements in the app, I need to open the app in Xcode or appium inspector, so I created an Xcode project from the source control containing the Xamarin.forms iOS app. I ran the project and the build was successful. </p>
  
  <p>I deployed the compiled app to an iOS simulator and it deployed okay. This is where the problem is - The deployed app open in the simulator as a blank app showing a white screen with only the battery indicator and a clock showing at the top of the blank white screen. The app is not visible.</p>
  
  <p>From research, I read that this blankness is due to the fact that I was trying to open a Xamarin built app in a native Xcode. In this case, how can I convert this Xamarin.forms iOS app into a native Xcode app so I can open it in an Xcode simulator? I will appreciate any helpful input</p>
