Sharing Buttons

Hi there, it would be great if Amaroq could support sharing buttons: https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/extensions/sharing-and-actions/

This would be especially important when one tries to share an image via an app that removes the EXIF data like, especially GPS location.

Isn't this already completed in the current release? @saschafoerster

@rightmeow666 no, in the latest release (v1.1.16), sharing buttons are not implemented.

@puresick we have a share button for each toot under the DWTimelineTableViewCell class. Not sure if this is what you mean. Can you clarify?

[puresick]

Ah there might be a misunderstanding. As fas as I understood the request by @saschafoerster, he wants to request the possibility to share from other apps to Amaroq. For example if you are visiting a web page in safari and want to share it to Amaroq, you could use the share extension from Amaroq in the share menu.

Maybe @saschafoerster can clarify this if this was the case or if he wanted share buttons for toots from amaroq to other applications.

@puresick Exactly! I want to share pictures and links TO Amaroq, not Toots from Amaroq to other services (which already works).

I see what you guys are saying now, in that case, we can just reuse the design of DWComposeViewController (The toot editor / composer. You can find it by tapping the middle bottom tab)? @puresick

[puresick]

Yeah I think that would be more than sufficient! :)
