is there any installable smartphone app that can share text via the share menu?

HugoGresse commented 2 years ago

Not yet but this is a good idea!

It is now possible for installed PWA to act as a share target in the system share menu.

Look into implementing it via adding share_target to the app manifest. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Manifest/share_target

I can see it being implemented by showing a list of selectable devices to send to, along with a pre-filled textbox of data recieved from the share menu.

You can try an example here: https://web-share.glitch.me/
