It seems that PCLStorage is the only library that exists for cross-platform file access with Xamarin. Do you mean to tell me that NOBODY ELSE has written a similar library? I don't want to reinvent the wheel here, so any guidance would be appreciated.
I have been having issues with PCLStorage (it doesn't seem to properly close file handles), so I need to find an alternative and don't want to write my own if there are options.
