I'm creating a messaging app and I would like to enable other apps to share text to my app via the share menu option.
How do I get my app listed in there?
This is the menu I would like to get listed in:
If your Android device has Android 11 or 10, you can pin an app by long-pressing on the app, and the option to pin that app should appear. Once you're done with the first app, repeat the process for other apps you want to pin, and you're good to go.
Use Sharedr for More Share Menu OptionsTap the Invoke Share Dialog button and you'll see an Android prompt to choose Android System or Sharedr. Choose the latter, followed by Always to set it as the default. Now, you'll see the Sharedr interface anytime you tap the share button around your phone.
Most of the time, you'll see the share button directly beneath the file you're currently viewing, but sometimes, you'll have to tap the three-dot menu button in the top-right corner of your screen to access the share feature.
In iOS 8, Apple has now enabled a way for you to add your application to a user's Share Sheet as one of many features of Extensibility, which aims to make your app available to the user even when closed.
You can read a lot more about share extensions here, or go straight to Apple's pre-release documentation to dive into the code.
