@imaddiraa-4704 The file type of Android is apk and iOS is ipa. They are both not exe. If you want to save Xamarin.UWP as exe, you can refer to this.

I don't know the product, but you don't have an "exe" in XF applications. I think dotmemory does not support XF apps

@alessandrocaliaro yes, in the end i found that to profile xamarin forms app, you have to use xamarin profiler that can be used in visual studio x enterprise, which is not that great as dotmemory. but in the end there is a dotmemory library which is free that allow us to profile the xamarin forms app at runtime throught the code.

you can also as suggested from @KyleWang-MSFT, compile the Xamarin.UWP at exe and profile it from dotmemory wich is the only way.
but unfortunately i have a complected app that require a lot of work to compile it in UWP.


thanks for the answer
