I've been making Windows apps (C# / XAML), for a while, and there is a built-in RoamingSettings space so the app can share preferences across multiple Windows devices (using the same Microsoft Account). Since Xamarin can work across multiple platforms, is there a way to do this?

I was thinking about some form of internet database, but I'm not hip on storing user data. Plus, it would either require authentication or store everyone's data in one big table.

I was thinking that Project Rome would be good for this, but it seems to be more geared towards hand-off workflows (not just sharing a font size or something).

Do you guys have any easy ideas (I stress the word "easy", as I'm just a hobbyist and not a real programmer).

    doing this in cross-platform cross-device way is going to require some sort of remote datastore with user auth – Jason May 25 '17 at 05:11

Check out Visual Studio Mobile Center and EasyTables. That should do what you want, but needs an Azure subscription. It's in preview at the moment but works pretty well.
