Quick shortcuts to most recent share destinations #16

Open JohnVeness opened 5 years ago

Some apps, Firefox for example, remember the last one or two share destinations, and present those to the user as separate buttons next to the share button. This would be useful in this app. See screenshot of Firefox menu with Flashify and NewTube as last two share destinations I picked.

Thank you so much for your suggestions!

One of the main goals while developing the app was to keep the UI very clean. Clearly, the screenshot itself had to be the primary content.

Unfortunately, I have now idea where to put the icons of the last share-targets. Actually, the same think applies to #14. At the moment I am not really willing to add a third FAB-button, I do however see the need for a save-functionality.

Do you have an idea how I could fit all those things into the UI?

Note: If you downloaded the app from F-Droid, you do not have v2 which has draw tools (F-Droid Buildserver is currently unable to use recent gradle versions)! You can see the current UI in my reply in another issue

Thanks, yes I'm using it from F-Droid so hadn't seen the new UI. In v1 there is a bunch of space at the bottom currently with the three dots menu and a Share button, with plenty of space between the two for more buttons. I'll check out v2 before making any more suggestions though.

I'd say there should be at least an option in settings to auto save a copy of every screenshots if a button for that is never added. But for the ui suggestion, maybe a long rectangular bar instead of couple of circular ones would make room for 4-5 icons as needed. For an idea/demo -

@beatbrot You don't have to, really, for Android allows to pin a favorite app in the upper part of the Android Share sheet, by long-pressing on any icon – and that's something users can take care of themselves.

That pinning option is no longer available in Android 10

@beatbrot you don't have to make a physical button on the screen, rather just a gesture like swiping right
