> Some of the most used API's are not documented at all, simply having a "To be added" description.

I rarely find myself reading the Xamarin documentation, and mostly browse documentation and StackOverflow as if I was coding a native iOS/Android app. This works because the Xamarin wrapper is pretty much identical to native APIs.

Agreed. I never read the Xamarin documentation, instead I'm looking at objc or Java and then impl as c# instead. The method names, signatures and idioms match almost one for one. When the API doesn't match it's because it makes sense to; Pickup a copy of the dotnet framework design guidelines and you'll see what I mean about the previous statement.
