Answer 1

Hello,

I Have searched many ways to pass the data from one View to another, but the solutions that are suggested is wrong because you break the MVVM pattern (e.g pass data by constructorse e.t.c)

You can create Init(data) in the BaseViewModel which is extended by other viewmodels

   public abstract class BaseViewModel  
       {  
           public abstract void initData(string data);  
       }  

Then when you bind the viewmodel, you can set the data by initData method.

   public MainPage(string senddata)  
           {  
               InitializeComponent();  
               MyViewModel myViewModel=  new MyViewModel();  
               myViewModel.initData(senddata);  
               BindingContext = myViewModel;  
           }  

Or you can use Constructor injection as well.
