Since Xamarin Forms 1.3.0 pre3, there is a new method:

protected bool OnBackButtonPressed();

You need to override this on your page.

    protected override bool OnBackButtonPressed()
    {    
         // If you want to stop the back button and show alert
         return true;

         // If you want to continue going back
          base.OnBackButtonPressed();
          return false; 
    }

Thanks to Xamarin Forums. Refer this link for more info.

Xamarin provides wrappers to the native Android Activity classes. So you probably have a MainActivity and maybe other Activity classes in your Xamarin Android project. In these classes you can override the OnBackPressed method inherited from FormsApplicationActivity and then create and show your Alert from there.

public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsApplicationActivity
{
    public override void OnBackPressed()
    {
        // show Alert or pass call on to base.OnBackPressed()
    }
}

try this , add to your activity

@Override
    public void onBackPressed() {
        AlertDialog.Builder builder =
                    new AlertDialog.Builder(this, R.style.AppCompatAlertDialogStyle);
            builder.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.app_name));
            builder.setMessage("" + Message);
            builder.setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {

                    //write your code

                }
            });
            builder.setNegativeButton("No", null);
            builder.setCancelable(false);
            builder.show();
    }
