When switching between Forms Shell tabs in android, the CarouselView content vanishes.

This happens on a non-shell app too; moving back to version 5.2.0 fixed the issue temporarily

I think it is connect to cache somehow. When I got 3 pages conent vainishes on page 1 when scrolled to page 3 and vice-versa. Page 2 stays intact, so it looks like memory is cleared for items that are two pages away from current.

EDIT: one more thing it only happens on Android, iOS works fine for me.

I have the same issue, I have 8 views,when I reach 8th view I see GC freed some memory in the log, when I go back views are empty. May be view model/binding context is cleared.

I don't know if the plugin is intended for resource intensive operations. Switching to version 5.2.0 there are lot of crashes which is annoying for end users.

I may try official Carousel to see if anything changes. But
