Hi Daniel,

The NuGet feed will supply packages you have a license for, be it free, trial or dev versions. With UI for Xamarin, we append ".Trial" to the package names so you can easily differentiate between the packages. You can safely ignore the trial packages from the feed after you've updated every project's references to use the non-trial versions.

In your case, you will continue to see the trial packages even after your trial license period has ended because you now have an active license. When you have an active license for a product, you also have access to the trial version of that product. We do this for several reasons, but the most common one is when you need to share your application with developers who do not have a license or open source it (i.e. GitHub).

If this answers your question, you can let me know by using the ticket's "Mark as resolved" button. Let me know if there's anything else I can assist with.

thank you for contacting Support and for choosing UI for Xamarin.

Hello Daniel,

Ah, that makes sense :) I see that you were assigned as a Licensed User just today. It can sometimes take up to 24 hours for all the different servers to be updated to reflect the new license (for example, NuGet server, Phone Assistance database, etc).

You should be good to go soon, but if you want to try and force a refresh:

1 - Delete the current NuGet Package Source that you created for the Telerik feed.
2 - Re-add the package source, but use a slightly different name

Visual Studio and NuGet will treat this as a new source and prompt you for credentials again, but it will ensure that you're not relying on a cached list of packages.

In the unlikely event that you still don't see Telerik.UI.For.Xamarin in your package list tomorrow morning, give us a call.

Side-Note:
There's a way you can test if your license has propagated to the support system. Try opening a Support Ticket here to see what support packages you have (and then cancel). You'll know the dev license is active when you see a"Lite Support" instead of a "Trial Support" option.

Hi David,

Visual Studio uses Windows' Credential Manager to store secrets. You'll need to go in there and update the credentials for nuget.telerik.com.

Here's a screenshot to guide you:

Personally, I prefer to get a fresh start by deleting the old credential and let Visual Studio re-prompt you the next time you need to connect to that package source.
