Is there any plugin / api which can be used to achieve this?

Answer 1

You can use the dependency service to access platform-specific APIs such as AVAudioRecorder on iOS or MediaRecorder on Android.

Answer 2

There is no plugin that I know of that does this. you could create a generic service interface called IRecorder which has the functionality you need and then implement the IRecorder interface in the platform specific projects using called AndroidRecorder etc using the dependency service

when implementing your platform specific code you can use these samples

• Android
• iOS
• Windows 10

Answer 3

There is an open-source plugin for working with audio recorder in Xamarin.Forms :
