I have implemented the push notification on my xamarin forms ios project. Now I am able to receive notifications on my iPhones that are pushed from the postman. But when tapping the notification how can I read my model data from notification and load the PCL App.xaml.cs?
When clicking the notification in ios device I need to open a content page(Message listing page) on my PCL project. I have implemented this on my PCL project App.xaml.cs. For this, I need to load the App.xaml.cs from AppDelegate.cs with the model data received from the notification.
Following way I am loading the App.xaml.cs from Android MainActivity
LoadApplication(new App(notificationdata));
In ios DidReceiveRemoteNotification is invoking when receiving the notification for background and foreground modes, but not invoking when taps the notification.
My notification body: webContentList is my model data.

Log data when receiving notification:

webContentList is my model data, I need that data when loading the App.xaml.cs. How can I parse that data from the DidReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo and load the App.xaml.cs?
