Add as a share target for photos

[martymcguire]

I've run through this workflow a couple of times:

1. Take a photo
2. Click the share button
3. Look for the app in the list of apps to send the photo. Don't find it.
4. Close the camera and open the app
5. Create a new post and attach the photo (several extra steps).
6. Add a caption
7. Post the photo to my site

I'd really love if the app could be a target for sharing photos from the camera (and other??) apps, creating a new post with that photo attached.

Thanks for Indigenous (and future related IndieWeb-building-block-powered apps)!

Thanks for this! That’s definitely something I keep finding myself needing. Hopefully I can get to it shortly.

That would be so great! I would definitely use this!

I wanna add both sharing of photos and mp3s at the same time because it’ll be pretty similar code. I haven’t done any file management yet in the app so I’m hesitant to start with that, but my desire for it is increasing so I should definitely tackle it soon.
