Google Place Autocomplete in Xamarin.Forms

Question

Has anyone integrated Google Place Autocomplete using Xamarin.Forms? I am to use it on a map for location suggestions. I've only seen resources for Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS but on the part of implementing the AutoCompleteView, that I also don't know. I would be very thankful if someone could guide me with this. Thank you!

Place autocomplete can be implemented by using the Google Place API, whenever user enter a character, matching location with the entered character will be fetched from the Google server and binding back in User Interface.
