Xamarin.Forms : How to get and add swipe events on Android and ios?

Issue

・I use Xamarin.Forms

・on UWP, it worked

・But on Android and ios, I don't know how implement it.

This is my code

/* Depends on the platform */
        switch (Device.RuntimePlatform) {
            case Device.iOS:
                /* iOS */
                // ????
                break;
            case Device.Android:
                /* Android */
                // ????
                break;
           
            case Device.UWP:
                /* UWP */
                /* SwipeGestureRecognize */
                var leftSwipeGesture = new SwipeGestureRecognizer { Direction = SwipeDirection.Left };
                leftSwipeGesture.Swiped += async (sender, e) => {
                    // dosomething;
                };
                var rightSwipeGesture = new SwipeGestureRecognizer { Direction = SwipeDirection.Right };
                rightSwipeGesture.Swiped += async (sender, e) => {
                     // dosomething;
                };
                Layout.GestureRecognizers.Add(leftSwipeGesture);
                Layout.GestureRecognizers.Add(rightSwipeGesture);
                break;

            default:
                break;
        }

Solution

Swipe Gesture Recognizer is cross platforms and you can read the document about how to Add a swipe gesture recognizer.

Here is an example:

In xaml:

<BoxView Color="Teal" ...>
    <BoxView.GestureRecognizers>
        <SwipeGestureRecognizer Direction="Left" Swiped="OnSwiped"/>
    </BoxView.GestureRecognizers>
</BoxView>

In code behind:

public MainPage()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    var boxView = new BoxView { Color = Color.Teal };
    var leftSwipeGesture = new SwipeGestureRecognizer { Direction = SwipeDirection.Left };
    leftSwipeGesture.Swiped += OnSwiped;
    boxView.GestureRecognizers.Add(leftSwipeGesture);
}

private void OnSwiped(object sender, SwipedEventArgs e)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}
