Due to request, Twitter provide lo-fi version when detects UA Strings with 29.1 version. following are STR to reproduce the failure case, Precondition: Images is stored in device/SD card. STR: 1. Install Twitter from Marketplace 2. Goto Gallery, select an image 3. Press share, select Twitter Observed: Twitter app opened, however, the image doesn't attached to the editing field. Expected: A. either remove / not register to Share pool, or, B. the selected image / media shall attached to corresponding field.
Note: Twitter lo-fi version do not have share image function in app, hence, would suggest remove register to share via pool.
> Twitter lo-fi version do not have share image function in app, hence, would suggest remove register to share via pool. What does "via pool" mean here? Who would remove the share intent, Twitter? Us?

when you press share (or share via) button in Gallery app, you will be prompted with a list (or pool) of registered apps. guess Twitter should do this, Twitter icon doesn't show up in the share list if Twitter is not installed.

Didem and I will bring this up in our reoccurring meeting, but Twitter announced to us that they will not make any fixes to their site until end of this year.

As Harald mentioned, Twitter is in the middle of a major rewrite of their mobile assets, hence they can not allocate resources for bug bug fixes, unless there is a serious issue breaking the app down. I cc'ed Jeremy from Twitter to this bug and also emailed him. Let's see if this is a minor fix for them or not.
Hey Mozilla team, can you direct me to documentation about how to register or unregister or specific intents like Share? I assume this is in the manifest file? Also, Hey Mike Taylor, good to see you!
Jeremy, Web Activities in the manifest. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Activities
