This can be achieved by putting a SearchBar above a ListView. Binding the Text value of the SearchBar to a property in your ViewModel enables you to handle changes to the Text property by querying the data.

In XAML:

<Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <SearchBar Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding Filter}" HeightRequest="40" />
    <ListView Grid.Row="1" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" />
</Grid>

In the ViewModel:

public List<MyObject> Items { get; set; }

public string Filter
{
    get { return filter; }
    set
    {
        filter = value;

        // Apply filter to list of Items here...
    }
}
