Details

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/2819.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a webpage
  2. Attempt to share it

Expected behavior

User is presented with the contacts they're most likely to share content with.

Actual behavior

A share sheet that not only doesn't behave as the native share sheet does, it reduces features and usability in order to present two options users use a lot less than direct sharing.

Device information

  • Android device: Android 8, LG G6
  • Fenix version: 1.0.1921

It is, although this issue is a lot older.

Can someone add the following to see also please: https://developer.android.com/training/sharing/send

It's still useful in the timeline. The assignee shall add what they need to the SA.

pwd and I spoke about this in the #fenix matrix channel: we decided that these two are not duplicate, but they should both be fixed. For Android 14 + devices, we should use the new share sheet and the APIs that come with that. For those lower, we could allow going into the native share sheet from our custom one.
