Cons
Con Base looks are garbage without a good amount of styling
Going with the base look for your app is a bad idea because it looks like garbage with the defaults.
Con C# support lacking
Although the Eagle Project exists, which offers Mono and .NET Core support, C# support is not standard.
Con Subscription-based/Not free

Con No Android support
They plan to eventually support Android, but for now, they only support iOS.
