Firebase.Xamarin is not compatible with monoandroid81

Question

I want to add firebase realtime database in my application but when I add a library for Firebase.Xamarin, it gives the error like

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error Package Firebase.Xamarin 0.3.6 is not compatible with monoandroid81 (MonoAndroid,Version=v8.1). Package Firebase.Xamarin 0.3.6 supports: net (.NETFramework,Version=v0.0) 0

how can I solve this error, I tried to change the target version of application but it is not working. Please help me to solve this error.

Answer 1

You are trying to install Firebase.Xamarin which is published by an author named Ricardo. What you are probably looking for is the official packages published by Xamarin.

In this case they all start with Xamarin.Firebase.

Answer 2

I found the proper answer by adding the Xamarin.Firebase library instead of Firebase.Xamarin because Firebase.Xamarin is not official library.
