Connectivity.ConnectivityChanged not fired on iOS

[thedee]

Description

Connectivity.ConnectivityChanged event does not fire on iOS devices when you turn off or on the wifi on that device. The device we are using does not have data service.

Also, the NetworkAccess always says Internet regardless of it having internet or not

NetworkAccess accessType = Connectivity.Current.NetworkAccess;
var b = (accessType == NetworkAccess.Internet);

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new project
2. Override OnStart in App.xaml.cs
3. Add event handler: Connectivity.Current.ConnectivityChanged += Connectivity_ConnectivityChanged;

Does it work if you do it later in the app? Maybe OnStart is too early in the lifecycle.

@jfversluis no it does not. I put the code into the OnAppearing of the form and it still does not work.
