Your application isn't guaranteed to be full screen (e.g. Android allows multiple apps to simultaneously share the screen now), so this is the maximum screen size you can hope for, not necessarily the current screen size available to your app. And UWP doesn't provide the maximum screen size (since it can change resolutions, potentially has multiple monitors, etc.) so for UWP you only get the initial screen size of the application and you have to check the ScreenSize.IsMaximum method to determine if the screen size really is guaranteed to be the maximum screen size your app will ever be displayed with. Consequently this plugin is of limited use (I only use it to pre-create enough special image views to fill the screen).
