In UWP, the toolbar items are added to the Command Bar (App Bar prior to UWP). In iOS, the toolbar items are added to the NavigationBar. In Android, the toolbar items are added to the App Bar (a.k.a Action Bar).


Toolbar Itemsįirst, lets have a look at how Toolbar Items look on each platform. In this post, I will go through how to add and customize items in the toolbar, however I normally recommend to steer clear of this functionality, and create your own navigation bar from scratch, due to the limitations on customization. The difficult part with this abstraction, is the need for it to be separate or included in the navigation bar. ToolbarItems are the individual items you add to the NavigationBar. The Xamarin Forms Toolbar is an abstraction of the extensions you can add to the NavigationBar on each platform.
