Android - Share on Facebook, Twitter, Mail, ecc

yes you can ... you just need to know the exact package name of the application:

  • Facebook - "com.facebook.katana"
  • Twitter - "com.twitter.android"
  • Instagram - "com.instagram.android"
  • Pinterest - "com.pinterest"

And you can create the intent like this

Intent intent = context.getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage(application);
if (intent != null) {
     // The application exists
     Intent shareIntent = new Intent();
     shareIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
     shareIntent.setPackage(application);

     shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, title);
     shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, description);
     // Start the specific social application
     context.startActivity(shareIntent);
} else {
    // The application does not exist
    // Open GooglePlay or use the default system picker
}

I think you want to give Share button, clicking on which the suitable media/website option should be there to share with it. In Android, you need to create createChooser for the same.

Sharing Text:

Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sharingIntent.setType("text/plain");
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is the text that will be shared.");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent,"Share using"));

Sharing binary objects (Images, videos etc.)

Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
Uri screenshotUri = Uri.parse(path);

sharingIntent.setType("image/png");
sharingIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, screenshotUri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent, "Share image using"));

FYI, above code are referred from Sharing content in Android using ACTION_SEND Intent


Use this

Facebook - "com.facebook.katana"
Twitter - "com.twitter.android"
Instagram - "com.instagram.android"
Pinterest - "com.pinterest"



SharingToSocialMedia("com.facebook.katana")


public void SharingToSocialMedia(String application) {

    Intent intent = new Intent();
    intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
    intent.setType("image/*");
    intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, bmpUri);

    boolean installed = checkAppInstall(application);
    if (installed) {
        intent.setPackage(application);
        startActivity(intent);
    } else {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                "Installed application first", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

}


 private boolean checkAppInstall(String uri) {
    PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
    try {
        pm.getPackageInfo(uri, PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES);
        return true;
    } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
    }

    return false;
}

Paresh Mayani's answer is mostly correct. Simply use a Broadcast Intent to let the system and all the other apps choose in what way the content is going to be shared.

To share text use the following code:

String message = "Text I want to share.";
Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
share.setType("text/plain");
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Title of the dialog the system will open"));
