What tools should I use to profile MAUI navigation performance?

Platform: .NET MAUI| Category: Performance

For profiling .NET MAUI navigation, pick the tool that matches where you test and what you need:

  • Visual Studio Profiler: Best for Windows development; fast, visual CPU/UI-thread hotspots and flamegraphs.  
  • dotnet-trace: Best single cross-platform CLI tool for collecting CPU/nettrace samples from devices or CI.  
  • dotnet-counters: Quick live counters to confirm CPU, GC or thread spikes while you reproduce the issue.  
  • Android Systrace/Android Studio profiler and Xcode Instruments: Use these when the problem looks renderer- or GPU-related on Android or iOS.
