Android emulator is not updating the application.

After adding a second button to the android / layout, complete with connections, actions, etc. The main.axml displays the new button in the designer. Visual studio behaves like everything is connected. But when I run with F5, my android emulator is still showing the older, one-button layout. Is there a way I could / should force the emulation with the updated build? Because, I'm not seeing it.

You should try to Build >> Clean Solution and then Build >> Rebuild Solution.

That removed the application from the simulated device. Now I need to re-install the new application to the simulated android device.
