How to display two text boxes as pop up using DisplayPromptAsync method in xamarin? - xamarin.forms

Question

When I use -
string result = await DisplayPromptAsync("Question 1", "What's your name?");
It shows only one textbox in the pop-up. But how to display two or more textboxes in the pop-up?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As IvanIčin said that you can use Rg.Plugins.Popup to create custom popup.
Firstly, install Rg.Plugins.Popup bu nuget package..., then creating popup page
<pages:PopupPage
x:Class="FormsSample.popup.popup2"
xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
xmlns:pages="clr-namespace:Rg.Plugins.Popup.Pages;assembly=Rg.Plugins.Popup">
<pages:PopupPage.Content>
<StackLayout
Padding="20,0"
BackgroundColor="CadetBlue"
HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
VerticalOptions="Center">
<Label Text="Question 1" />
<Label Text="this is one question!" />
<Entry />
<Entry />
<Button
x:Name="btnsub"
Clicked="btnsub_Clicked"
Text="subit" />
</StackLayout>
</pages:PopupPage.Content>
</pages:PopupPage>
public partial class popup2 : PopupPage
{
public popup2()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void btnsub_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
}
To call this Popup Page from contentpage button.click event.
private async void btnPopupButton_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
await PopupNavigation.Instance.PushAsync(new popup2());
}
You can see the screenshot:

You can't as it is not intended to. You can create a custom pop-up either by using some pop-up plug-in or by creating your custom code based on the native prompts (similar to what Xamarin.Forms do).
Just for the record having one input field is very generous from Xamarin as the native Android or iOS developers don't have such a prompt with the input field out of the box (though it isn't too hard to create it but still it goes much beyond one line of code).
