Default Sharing in iOS 7 - ios

Question

I have seen this format (Image shown below) of share option in most of the iOS applications that support iOS 7.
Is there a default code/framework available to implement this share option as it is shown in the image below?

Answer 1

What you are looking for is the UIActivityViewController.
Since you asked a general question I can't do more than give you a link to the documentation

Answer 2

In addition to the accepted answer, a small piece of example code
- (void)shareText:(NSString *)text andImage:(UIImage *)image andUrl:(NSURL *)url
{
NSMutableArray *sharingItems = [NSMutableArray new];
if (text) {
[sharingItems addObject:text];
}
if (image) {
[sharingItems addObject:image];
}
if (url) {
[sharingItems addObject:url];
}
UIActivityViewController *activityController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:sharingItems applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:activityController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
Call shareText, leave the things that you don't want to share at nil.
[self shareText:#"Hello world" andImage:nil andUrl:nil];

Answer 3

The Controller in the image you posted is the UIActivitiyViewController this is a link to the class documentation

Answer 4

some good example code:
How to display the default iOS 6 share action sheet with available share options?
I know this question is particular to iOS 7, and the code example specifies iOS 6, but AFAICT they are very similar one might find the example code as helpful as I did.

Answer 5

UIActivityViewController is what you are looking for.
You can specify either the items or the applications
UIActivityViewController *actCont = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems applicationActivities:nil];

Answer 6

Just use following code for Default Sharing. You can able to add more items into shareItems array as per your requirement.
NSMutableArray *shareItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:
#"Hello",
[UIImage imageNamed:#"your_image.png"],
#"http://google.com/", nil];
[self shareItemToOtherApp:shareItems];
Following method is for default sharing Text or Image into other Apps:-
-(void)shareItemToOtherApp:(NSMutableArray *)shareItems{
UIActivityViewController *shareController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc]
initWithActivityItems: shareItems applicationActivities :nil];
[shareController setValue:#"Sharing" forKey:#"subject"];
shareController.excludedActivityTypes = #[UIActivityTypePostToWeibo, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll];
shareController.completionHandler = ^(NSString *activityType, BOOL completed)
{
//NSLog(#" activityType: %#", activityType);
//NSLog(#" completed: %i", completed);
};
[self presentViewController: shareController animated: YES completion: nil];
}
If you want to make Custom Sharing sheet then use following code. For this, you have to import <Social/Social.h> framework.
-(void)shareOnFacebook:(id)sender {
if ([SLComposeViewController isAvailableForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook])
{
SLComposeViewController *faceSheet = [SLComposeViewController composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook];
// NSLog(#"%#", messageField.text);//This returns the appropriate string
[faceSheet setInitialText:#"Hellooooooo"];
//The facebook VC appears, but initial text is not set to messageField.text
[self presentViewController:faceSheet animated:YES completion:nil];
}
else
{
NSLog(#"Please first install Application and login in Facebook");
}
}
-(void)shareOnTwitter:(id)sender {
if ([SLComposeViewController isAvailableForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter])
{
SLComposeViewController *tweetSheet = [SLComposeViewController
composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter];
[tweetSheet setInitialText:#"Hello"];
[self presentViewController:tweetSheet animated:YES completion:nil];
}
else{
NSLog(#"Please first install Application and login in Twitter");
}
}
Hope, this is what you're looking for. Any concern get back to me. :)
