Show my own application in share dialog in iPhone just like screenshot you can go in photo and click on share then you see Facebook, mail, Twitter etc. i want to show my app icon "weibo"]

If only Googling for that turned up a result on the Apple developer site. You need to define a type identifier for your data, then declare it as imported.

I am using the activity view controller to share message to SMS, Facebook, Twitter. Is it possible to add Google+ too. Please let me know how it is possible in Swift
By default in the iOS 8, we can see a more a button. If you click it, users can see the google pus app if he/she has installed in their phone. User can select from there if they want to send text message via google+ from there.
I would like to include a button in my app "share this app'. And then I would popup the
standard UIActivityViewController. I would attach the URL to my app in the app store.
But what URL should I use? Are there any guidelines? I would like that it shows pretty on Facebook, twitter and stuff...
This is a duplicate, already answered this question see the link ..
But you need to have the app on the appstore already so yeah, or you need to be sure of your appname.
EDIT:
Use itms:// instead of http:// for it to open directly in the appstore and not redirect from the browser first
I looked at the post mentioned by Andre Filoppio. It does indeed mention a lot of different URL that could potentially be used. I have been testen them all, the only one that got my nice pretty Facebook mention was:
http://itunes.apple.com/app/idXXXXXXXX (where XXXXX is your app id)
The fancy ones like http://appstore.com/ProductNameWithoutSpacesAndStuff
all have the same problem: they have so many redirects, or open in itunes directly, that Facebook just displays this kind of message "connecting to Itunes store" instead of your app icon with something like "available on the app store"
(sorry guys I had a nice picture, but apparently I don't have enough reputation to post this to this answer)
I dont know what this is called and cant find anything on this...
When your in iphoto and click share a list of apps show up to do the sharing through, facebook and Twitter (if installed) email, sms, etc. How do I get my app in that list so when the user wants to share a photo my application is available to be the one to do the sharing. Im assuming the ios passes the photo to the app and myapp catches it and does work with it.
Thanks
This is not possible for 3rd party applications.
If I want to send a user to the facebook settings page under "system preferences" from within my app, what is the best possible way to do that, if it is indeed possible:
A case where this is useful would be if a user is trying to use an app's SSO capabilities to register for something using their facebook account. They click to register using facebook, but no facebook account is configured on the iPhone. It would be useful to then display a UIAlertView explaining that there is no facebook account configured, and then send the user to the settings page for facebook.
Is this possible? If so, how?
Short answer, Its not possible.
There is no way to launch device default "Settings" app from within your app. All you can do is give user some instructions of how to go about and change certain settings by themselves. You can do this as either a pop-up alert message or some sort of tutorial with screenshots built in your app.
I was wondering if there is an API available for the "Open with" / share dialog. I see 3 social networks (Twitter, Facebook, and a JPN site) by default in iOS, but I was wondering if it was possible to register your own app to accept these options.
It's not quite clear what you're asking. If you just want to present that Open With dialog, it's the UIActivityViewController. You can even implement your own custom UIActivity to appear in the dialog, but that will only appear if the user summons the activity view in your app.

If you're asking how your app can appear when the activity view is summoned in another app, if you export a document type in your Info.plist, your app will appear in the Open With dialog if the user starts with a document of that type.
