I'm trying to develop watchOS 3 with Xamarin. My watch is communicating with parent application while it's active. When iOS app is killed or in background state, my watch doesn't receive any updated data. I'm sending request from the watch every 10 seconds in order to get updated data. I'm using WCSession for connection. The question is: is it possible to activate parent application from watch extension?
My functions for connectivity:

 public void StartSession()
 
 if (session != null)
 
 session.Delegate = this;
 session.ActivateSession();
 Console.WriteLine($"Started Watch Connectivity Session on Device");
 
 
public override void SessionReachabilityDidChange(WCSession session)
 
 Console.WriteLine($"Watch connectivity Reachable:(session.Reachable ? '✓' : '✗') from Device");
 // handle session reachability change
 if (session.Reachable)
 
 // great! continue on with Interactive Messaging
 
 else 
 // 😥 prompt the user to unlock their iOS device
 
 

 #region Application Context Methods

 public void UpdateApplicationContext(Dictionary<string, object> applicationContext)
 
 // Application context doesnt need the watch to be reachable, it will be received when opened
 if (validSession != null)
 
 try
 
 var NSValues = applicationContext.Values.Select(x => new NSString(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(x))).ToArray();
 var NSKeys = applicationContext.Keys.Select(x => new NSString(x)).ToArray();
 var NSApplicationContext = NSDictionary<NSString, NSObject>.FromObjectsAndKeys(NSValues, NSKeys);
 NSError error;
 var sendSuccessfully = validSession.UpdateApplicationContext(NSApplicationContext, out error);
 if (sendSuccessfully)
 
 Console.WriteLine($"Sent App Context from Device nPayLoad: NSApplicationContext.ToString() n");
 
 else
 
 Console.WriteLine($"Error Updating Application Context: error.LocalizedDescription");
 
 
 catch (Exception ex)
 
 Console.WriteLine($"Exception Updating Application Context: ex.Message");
 
 
 

 public override void DidReceiveApplicationContext(WCSession session, NSDictionary<NSString, NSObject> applicationContext)
 
 Console.WriteLine($"Receiving Message on Device");
 if (ApplicationContextUpdated != null)
 
 var keys = applicationContext.Keys.Select(k => k.ToString()).ToArray();
 var values = applicationContext.Values.Select(v => JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(v.ToString())).ToArray();
 var dictionary = keys.Zip(values, (k, v) => new Key = k, Value = v )
 .ToDictionary(x => x.Key, x => x.Value);

 ApplicationContextUpdated(session, dictionary);
