Find why Xamarin app Crashes randomly

I am making a app with Xamarin.Forms, the app in the iOS doesn't crash but in Android, Application is crashing randomly, even if I only switch the tabs. What is the best way to find what is making the app to stop working?

Thanks

You can also look into a crash reporting service like Hockey App (https://hockeyapp.net/ -- the free level is enough for getting crash reports). You'll get crashes reported there, including crashes in code that you can't catch.

Crash reports aren't quite as handy has being able to break in the debugger, but it's often enough to point you in the right direction.

well to add exception handling 

try {
    // ... 
} catch(Exception e) { 
    // ...
}

or like the below example 

public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
    try{
        ExceptionHandler(1);
        ExceptionHandler(2);
    }catch(FileNotFoundException e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }catch(IOException e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }finally{
        System.out.println(" error to be checked");         
    }
    testException(0);
}


public static void ExceptionHandler(int i) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException{
    if(i =1 ){
        FileNotFoundException myException = new FileNotFoundException("error for code 1 "+i);
        throw myException;
    }else if(i =2){
        throw new IOException("error on 2 ");
    }

}
