Is it possible to use the Markup feature from the Photos app/extension in my own app? I'd like to use this exact screen, if possible:

I am searching for the last week over many websites, and I can see people with the same question, but they are mostly misundestood.
What I have:
I have an iOS application that can receive URL from browsers (made with ionic/cordova)
What I want:
When I am on Safari (or other browser), i want to use the button Share, and my app appear there, in the list, just like Twitter, Facebook, etc. (I put an arrow in the image below).
Like this:
And, I want this working on many iOS versions.
So, I tried to change my app-info.plist many times and nothing works.
Somebody have a solution for this? Somebody have a info.plist that do this job?
(PS: I don´t want to use URL scheme, links, etc... Its the browser SHARE)
Thanks!
The only way is to create a share extension, as mentioned. It is not a trivial task in that you have to incorporate a lot of pieces together to make it work. Also, it is only supported on iOS 8+, which I guess shouldn't be a major issue at present.
In a nutshell:
Create Share Extension in XCode
Create a JS preprocessor
Add plist key/value pairs for related ExtensionAttributes
Set up custom URL scheme
Customize ShareViewController
Set up global handler function to perform your desired actions in app
See Cordova: sharing browser URL to my iOS app (Clipper ios share extension)
Or https://www.inshikos.com/blogs/76/dev/link-and-photo-sharing-to-a-cordova-ios-app-via-share-extensions-ios-8 that expands it further to include photo and wider share scenarios.
And, yes, a terribly misunderstood question with many false positive answers in other posts.
In android apps, it's very easy to show a tooltip (they call that a Toast). But I can't find an easy way to do the same in iOS apps.
I saw several things about this question, but my goal is to publish my app on the app store, so I want to use a proper way to do these tooltips...
Then, is there any way to do a tooltip according to Apple philosophy ?
There is no Android Toast equivalent built in. Many people use MBProgressHUD.
dear community,
A simple question but no clear answer yet.
Can I add my button to standard UIActivityController so that when user goes to Photos/Notes/Safari he can also along with twitter/facebook post it to my destination ?
I'm sure I can do that while calling UIActivityViewController from within my app.
And looks like there is a way to do that for mail attachments. Box app can do that here, probably via CFBundleDocumentTypes in plist. But is there a way to do that with e.g. photos?
Hopefully anybody can give me any useful links with examples of such implementation.
Thanks a lot

As of iOS 6, there is no way to add a custom UIActivity item to built-in apps like Photos, Notes, or Safari.
Custom UIActivity items can only be added to third-party apps.
Is it possible to implement the iOS 5 > 'Photos' app cropping mechanism? This is exactly what I need for my app. I need to allow a user to pick an image and crop that photo using something like what the 'Photos' app provides. Is there a library for this? Can I hook directly to it from the SDK? What are my options here? I have looked through Google and Github with no luck.
The standard SDK provides a way to get a picture, let the user crop it, and import it into your App, See: http://developer.apple.com/library/IOS/#documentation/AudioVideo/Conceptual/CameraAndPhotoLib_TopicsForIOS/Articles/TakingPicturesAndMovies.html
Is it possible to have a cross promotion page on your app that looks like the app store using LunarAds?
Here is an image of what I am talking about:

You can create a web view with a list of the apps. Customize the html to look like an iOS table view with a html/css framework such as UIUIKit.
