If you are in Xamarin using Visual Studio I finally discover how to tackle this annoying problem.
Click on the widget or view in the storyboard. In the properties window->layout you can see the constraints. Click on the constraint.
Before I was using -20 for constraints:
Now I fixed by having a constant of 0 and changing the constraint configuration:
Just remove the selection on the "Relative to Margin" checkbox.

Set the constant to -20 on the Trailing Margin Space and Leading Space layout elements to the Superview. I have no idea whether this is the preferred way to do this but it worked for me on my Table View.

Xcode has an option not use margins when a constraint is added.
In the iOS designer in Visual Studio, there doesn't seem to be an option when a constraint is being created.
Xcode & Visual Studio constraint margins
A work around is to create the constraint and then edit it after it has been created.
On another note, you might review why you're not using a UITabBarController which would place the Tab Bar correctly for you.

You need to uncheck the Constraint to Margin option when giving constraints for left and right using auto layout

All of your advice points to iOS native interface designers, I can't see any xamarin specific information in there, and trying to apply the answers in those links to xamarin in visual studio actually isn't the same. – JoeTomks Jul 18 '17 at 07:34
