In reply to Fabian. It is difficult to answer that questions just from the information provided. It would be useful to see the enum that you're using.

Thanks for the great tool! Just one thing: in my application, all values set with enumBindablePicker are properly saved, however, if it is the first one enumeration, it is not displayed (despite being correctly saved and retrieved from the database). Setting the enum to anything else but the first value works flawlessly. Any ideas?

Hi Phillip,
I have created a fork and updated the project to the latest Xamarin.Forms 3.6.0. You can find the repository here: https://github.com/IntelliTect-Samples/BlogSamples/tree/master/EnumBindablePickerSample

After I update xamarin form to version 3.5, the EnumBindablePicker doesn’t work anymore. Does anyone have idea?

One bug: On Android at least, if the initial value of the enum is 0 (which will often be the case) the Title of the picker is not set until a value is picked. I added “Title = Items[0].ToString()” as the last line of the initialiser.

Thanks for the write up. I had been searching for an example on how to obtain the Display Description using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.DisplayAttribute. This explained a lot since we are using Xamarin Forms.
