Is there a xamarin component that will handle PIN entry?

Question

I see there is an iOS and iPad, PIN Code Control xamarin component, that will give your a programmatic numeric keypad for PIN Entry. Short of coding the entire thing using C# in Xamarin I would prefer to find a component.

I need a PIN code control, xamarin component that is cross platform, which is the purpose of xamarin forms. We will be using this on Android and iOS devices.

Has anyone see such a component on Xamarin's Component Store and I am using the wrong search terms, PIN, Keypad, Numeric?

For future googlers: you might be interested in a small Xamarin.Forms library XamarinFormsPinView. I'm the author.

It's not very configurable, but should fill most common requirements.

I have tried to install nuget package but it gives dependency error in PCL project. Created an issue on github project. Please check – Umair M Aug 29 '17 at 10:53

Sorry, I have not seen a component that does what you need.

This Xamarin.Forms calculator sample might be a useful starting point for writing a custom one (since it already implements a numeric keyboard entry with display and backspace).

Obviously there's a lot of styling work required to get it looking like any of the native PIN entry screens - but it should save you writing from scratch.

If you need attractive xamarin forms pin passcode form with high control, check out this repo. It is not a library and it does not use MVVM models. It is just .XAML page with code behind it. https://github.com/Akezh/XamarinFormsPinPassword
