• Xamarin.iOS (min iOS 7), Xamarin.Android (min Android 4), Xamarin.Forms and Windows (WinRT, UWP, Silverlight) support

• Multiple image views using the same image source (url, path, resource) will use only one bitmap which is cached in memory (less memory usage)
• Deduplication of similar download/load requests. (If 100 similar requests arrive at same time then one real loading will be performed while 99 others will wait).
