.net maui android app crashes when deployed to google play closed testing

Description

I recently got an update to .net maui .net 7 - stable version on the 08/11/2022. I tested all apps before release to testflight and play store closed testing. Everything worked on testflight but not on play console alpha testing. I have used App tester but the app crashes on opening the app. I have tried with firebase Test lab and it has produced some errors that I cannot understand. Please can anyone help as this project is very critical.
