I have a few apps in the store done with Xamarin.

Nearest Bus is a quick bus locator for London, which won an award from Transport
for London recently. It finds where you are, and queries the TfL "countdown"
service to work out where your nearest stops are, and when the bus is going to
arive.

mobileAgent is a client for FreeAgent, which is a SaaS accounting package mostly

focused on the UK. I wrote mobileAgent as I needed what it does - scratching my own
itch. It allows offline entry of expenses, bills, receipts and mileage, as well as
invoice creation and bank account viewing.

Trip Wallet is another "scratch my own itch" app, which lets you record your
spending when you are on holiday (or any time). You can enter multiple currencies,
and it always resolves it back to your home currency, so you can see how much you
have spent, and if you are on target or over budget.

I've done a couple for other people, too:

Earnest is an app for tracking income and expendature for very small businesses. It
is based around the UK HMRC (IRS) requirement of only Income - Expenses = Tax to
pay. This was done on contract for FreeAgent, and won an award from The Scottish
Herald.

Educa is an early childhood education startup, and I did their Android and iPad
apps. It centers around a ECE center entering in the childs "learning stories",
what they did that day, what they learned, how they are doing. It's mostly New
Zealand, Australia and Asia-focused. This uses the same core libraries for service
and database access across the two platforms.

Could I have done this without Xamarin? yes, of course. But it wouldn't be nearly
as much fun, nor would it have been as easy.
