Fair, it has one! But I want support for interaction with local apps. I'll modify the post.

Oh, I cannot modify it. Anyway the current button does not use Windows 10 share contract and thus I have no access for other services e.g. LINE. https://line.me/

Any updates on that? I would love use that feature since I started to use some of the Windows 10 UWP apps instead of the websites. Sharing stuff to those Apps are not so easy without a built-in feature. Maybe a new service/plugin to the share menu?
