May be one of your libraries is using uiwebview. – A. Abdelmonsef

I found this section "UIWebView Deprecation and App Store Rejection (ITMS-90809)" here: https://docs.microsoft.com/ru-ru/xamarin/xamarin-forms/user-interface/webview?tabs=macos

"Starting in April 2020, Apple will reject apps that still use the deprecated UIWebView API" So you should have:

  • "Xamarin.Forms 4.5 or higher"
  • "Xamarin.iOS 13.10.0.17 or higher"
  • "Remove references to UIWebView"

Also check this out: https://docs.microsoft.com/ru-ru/xamarin/ios/user-interface/controls/webview#uiwebview-deprecation
