Xamarin Monodroid auto update data on Android App

Is there a way or an example to use a service or something to auto update any changes made from an app to show on other devices using the same app? We have a native/local application we use in-house for Android tablets for taking and editing data. More or less a check-in app. We were needing to:

  1. If a users on one tablet makes a data change in their application, to automatically change the status/data on the other tablets running the same application without having to manually refresh or restart the application.

  2. If a user makes a change to the data and saves it, could we cause a push notification to the other tablets to indicating a change to the data has been made.

if you are working "online" or at least on a network, you could use a REST request to send your changes or a notification to a server (depending on what you need). Then the notification to other devices can be handled through libraries like Signal-R or PushSharp
