The Device.StartTimer seems to be missing features and in need of improvement, so I am using some AdvancedTimer for now but it's an old 2015 assembly. Perhaps we just need some additional abstractions put around the Device.StartTimer so it's easier to use.

Device.StartTimer is there. i am using it currently and works perfectly fine
Are there rough expected release dates for XF 3.5 and 4.0? (I understand they may slip)
The next feature update to one of my apps uses Bindeable Layouts from 3.5 and I have plans for a major rewrite once 4.0 is released. I have been using the prereleases for development but regressions in 3.5pre3 mean I can't release anything until it is stable.

v3.5 was released a few hours after I posted that question. Now that's what I call service!
