Xamarin Forms UWP Hide Title Bar

I was wondering if anyone knew how to hide the title (gray) bar of a Xamarin Forms Universal Windows Platform application? I've seen some solutions for Android floating around, but I can't extrapolate an equivalent.

One of the Android solutions I've stumbled across: RequestWindowFeature(WindowFeatures.NoTitle);

enter image description here

Any suggestions/ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

You can apply any of the following settings to your main view. The best place to set them is in App.xaml.cs just before the Window.Current.Activate() method.

Note: The Full Screen Mode is different from a Maximized Window as it will hide the title and the Windows Taskbar

To Start the App in Full Screen Mode

ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchWindowingMode = ApplicationViewWindowingMode.FullScreen;

To switch to Full Screen at Runtime

ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().TryEnterFullScreenMode();

Note: It returns a boolean indicating if it succeeded or not, so you may programmatically change your code behavior based on the result.
