Google Maps for iOS and Xamarin Forms

$

I am learning Xamarin and Forms for the first time. I have got my head around the basics but am getting quite confused trying to get the Google Maps for iOS component working with Forms.

So I have the Map outputting via my shared code using var map = new Map () ...

Which outputs a lovely Apple Map.

But I am trying to render a Google Map, using the Google Maps for iOS component:
https://components.xamarin.com/view/googlemapsios

I have pulled in the Google Maps component to the iOS project. I have got an API key etc.

But I am really at a loss where to go from here. I am not sure - can I use a Custom Renderer for this to customise the Map? Is it even possible to use Google Maps for iOS with Xamarin Forms? Does anybody have any tips or working examples they can point me to?

Even the theory about how this should be tackled would get me to the next step.

Sorry if I should be adding more detail here - it is early days for me and Xamarin.
