Daylight Savings date Nov 1 not selectable using SelectedDate property in SFCalendar

Hi I am using SFCalendar for our mobile app and have recently encountered a production bug related to Daylight Savings date selection on our iOS app. Whenever the user tries to select 11/1/2020 in the calender, the SelectedDate property returns 10/31/2020 as the value. 

If the user selects 10/31/3030 or 11/2/2020 the SelectedDate property returns correct date value but for 11/1/2020, the SelectedDate value is wrong. Also this is same behavior if user selects 11/7/2021 where the SelectedDate property returns 11/6/2021. 

I have attached the zipped folder for sample app with latest sfcalendar and xamarin.forms version installed. Please note, this is reproducible in iOS app only thus I have disabled the Android project from my sample app code. 

Thanks,
Puneet Mittal

Hello SaiGanesh, 

Thanks for your response regarding the issue fix. I tried to install the patch as per the instructions but our windows security software is complaining about the exe file being unsafe and thus preventing us from installing the patch. 

I contacted my admin team and they want us to confirm from you if the file is safe to download or not. Can you please update the patch file so that our windows antivirus softwares doesn't flag the file as unsafe. 

I also noticed that the installation instructions provided by you have Essential Studio mentioned. I am not aware of this tool and wanted to make sure that the instructions and the patch provided is for Visual Studio 2019.

Please confirm!

Thanks.
