Nice to know. I hadn't thought of that...

You need to cause some maps code to execute, which will result in an exception
(as the type won't be found), then catch the exception. An untested example:
static bool IsGoogleMapsSupported ()
{
try {
var _ =
Android.GoogleMaps.MapView.ReticleDrawMode.Values();
return true;
} catch (Exception e) {
// or catch Java.Lang.NoClassDefFoundError?
return false;
}
}
