Hello, if I understand your question correctly the following approach does the job:

List<string> productCollection = new List<string>();  
  
productCollection.Insert(0, "my product");  

This code snippet places your new item to the first index of the collection. (works with ObservableCollection aswell)
and this XAML right here makes sure when a new item added to your list it'll automatically set focus to top.

<CollectionView  
                        HorizontalOptions="CenterAndExpand"  
                        ItemsSource="{Binding ProductCollection}"  
                        ItemsUpdatingScrollMode="KeepScrollOffset"  
                        VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Always">  
</CollectionView>  

Make sure that your collection is represented in the VM.
