You need to add following in your manifest.

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"></action>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <data android:mimeType="image/jpeg" />
</intent-filter>

Your manifest should look something like follow.

<application android:name="MyApplication" android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    <activity android:name="com.example.arcasample.MainActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"></action>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <data android:mimeType="image/jpeg" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>
