When building iOS apps from visual studio, the .dSYM file that can be used to symbolicate crash reports ends up on the build host at path:

/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/Xamarin/mtbs/builds/<appname>/<guid>/bin/iPhone/<configuration>

Note that the ~/Library folder is hidden by default in Finder, so if need be use Finder's Go > Go to Folder menu and enter: ~/Library/Caches/Xamarin/mtbs/builds/ to open the folder.

Alternately you can unhide the ~/Library folder by using the Show View Options panel for your home folder. If you select your home folder in the sidebar in Finder and use the Finder menu View > Show View Options (or cmd-j), then you will see a checkbox to Show Library Folder.
