Xamarin Forms iOS example

[jerone]

It looks like the iOS Forms example is not implemented.
Do you have plans to build this version?
It would be highly appreciated.

That's probably because the underlying library doesn't support iOS: AltBeacon/spec#7

If you want to simply use iBeacons, this is built into iOS and Xamarin. See https://blog.xamarin.com/play-find-the-monkey-with-ios-7-ibeacons/

Thanks for responding. That's accurate. The AltBeacon spec doesn't cover iOS.

No problem. I've just been digging through the sample code. Perhaps @jerone was referring to the fact that the IAltBeaconService interface used in the sample was not implemented using CLLocationManager for iOS.

To answer that question more specifically, I think providing that implementation is out of the scope for this library. You'd be better off looking at the Xamarin documentation and the Xamarin blogpost I linked to above.
