What is Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread for?

Question

I would like someone to explain to me what is Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread and what is it for?

And also some examples of cases where it\'s used.

Answer 1

You can only update the UI from the main UI thread. If you are running code on a background thread and need to update the UI, BeginInvokeOnMainThread() allows you to force your code to run on the main thread, so you can update the UI.
