Why are my Xamarin UWP Images not showing up on device?

Question

I am developing a Xamarin UWP app using ffimageloading. The images show up just fine on the Windows Phone emulator that I am running through Visual Studio, but when I deploy it

Answer 1

The issue was the build configuration. By turning off "Compile with .NET Native tool chain" on the Build tab of Properties for the Release configuration of the main UWP app and deploying the app with WinAppDeployCmd.exe
