How to make my expo app appear in the share list of another app?

This question has been asked many times on stack overflow, but never for apps generated using the expo framework, which makes my app specific and incompatible with replies from other posts.

How can I make my expo app appear in the share list of another app? It seems the docs don't address this topic.

You can't.

At least not in the expo managed workflow at the time I'm writing this. If that's crucial for your app, you can eject, move to the bare workflow and give react-native-share-extension a shot.

PS: There's a feature request. I hope they'll implement it in the (near) future.
