Answer 1

I have created a class ToastMessage in droid side.

   public class ToastMessage: IToast
        {
            public void LongAlert(string message)
            {
                Toast toast = Toast.MakeText(Android.App.Application.Context, message, ToastLength.Short);
                toast.Show();
                Device.StartTimer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5), () =>
                {               
                   toast.Cancel();
                    return false;
                });
            }
        }

I have created interface IToast

 public  interface IToast
    {
        void LongAlert(string message);
    }

Calling By Dependency Service

 DependencyService.Get().LongAlert("Right Answer");
