How does one share a video to Vimeo using the added support to the social framework on iOS 7?
This seems pretty new, haven't found any info on this.
This is what's called UIActivityViewController, available on iOS 6 and later. Based on initWithActivityItems it automatically decides what type of content you want to share and handles the rest. Pretty cool when used properly.
- (IBAction)showShareSheet:(id)sender {
NSArray *objects = #[moviePlayer.contentURL];
UIActivityViewController *activity = [[UIActivityViewController alloc]
initWithActivityItems:objects
applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:activity animated:YES completion:nil];
}

Im struggling with iOS 3d touch / quick actions. I'm trying to implement a Quick Action Share button similar to Hangouts App using UIActivityViewController.
Following iOS dev guildes I have almost managed to achieve the goal but my application is starting with the splash & home screen right after performing the 3d touch click while the Hangouts app presents the UIActivityViewController without showing any viewcontroller beneath it.
- (void)handleShortcutItem:(UIApplicationShortcutItem *)item {
NSString *string = #"Share String";
NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"some URL"];
UIActivityViewController *activityViewController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:#[string, URL] applicationActivities:nil];
[self.window.rootViewController presentViewController:activityViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
Does anyone know how to launch those quick actions without launching the whole app?
The shortcut item is added for each and every app downloaded from the App Store (at least on my device running iOS 10). There's no need for you to implement anything!
Note that TestFlight builds will have a "Send Feedback" shortcut option instead of "Share ___"
Well, the situation is when I am trying to share text in facebook with UIActivityViewController, the share text shows blank in the facebook popup whereas the URL provided comes but text doesn't show in Facebook share dialog or popup. One more thing sometimes the URL also don't come or show in share dialog.
NOTE:
Facebook native app is already installed in device and logged in from device settings, I have also updated the app to version 31.0.
Device used:- iPhone 6 with iOS 8.3
Code:-
NSString *shareString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Welcome to family."];
NSURL *website = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://google.com"];
NSArray *shareArray = #[shareString,website];
UIActivityViewController *activityController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc]initWithActivityItems:shareArray
applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:activityController
animated:YES completion:nil];
[activityController setCompletionHandler:^(NSString *activityType, BOOL completed){
}];
This won't work if you have the newest Facebook app installed - the text always blank and sometimes URL doesn't show in facebook version 31.0 . This share feature only works older app means version less than 28..
iOS 7, Xcode 5
I've setup a UIActivityController in my app and no matter what I do, I can't ever see the icons for Twitter, Facebook, etc. I only see Mail and Message.
This happens both in the Simulator and on my iPhone 5S.
I've tried third-party tutorials and sample code and get the same behavior. However, when I use Safari/Yahoo on my iPhone, I can see everything, even though I do not have accounts for everything.
The code is straightforward:
NSString *text = #"How to add Facebook and Twitter sharing to an iOS app";
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://roadfiresoftware.com/2014/02/how-to-add-facebook-and-twitter-sharing-to-an-ios-app/"];
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"roadfire-icon-square-200"];
UIActivityViewController *controller =
[[UIActivityViewController alloc]
initWithActivityItems:#[text, url, image]
applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
My understanding is that I do NOT need to have active accounts on any device to simply see the icons in the Sheet.
So can someone help figure out why this is happening?
using uiactivity ,i can share content of my app to Facebook,twitter,email.
UIActivityViewController *activityController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems
applicationActivities:activities];
so i want to add my custom uiactivity,when user using UIActivityViewController at other app,my app can appear on the UIActivityViewController like Facebook,so it can share content to my app?
if apple allow me to do this,if yes,how to do?can you give some advice
edit: i think this is not repeat question。my question: i want to my app like Facebook,twitter can show at other developer app,if it used UIActivityViewController. if you cannot understand my question,you can ask me,i can give detail describe.sorry for my english
I use UIActivityViewController to implement eMail and Message.
NSArray *activityItems;
activityItems = #[[self.mURL path],self.mURL];
UIActivityViewController *activityController =
[[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems
applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:activityController
animated:YES completion:nil];
But how can I implement below view, especially youtube, youku, and tudou on iOS6?
Your app will have to provide a custom UIActivity that handles URLs and file paths. For an example, see my book: http://www.apeth.com/iOSBook/ch26.html#_activity_view
Look about halfway through that section, where I create a custom activity called Be Cool.
What you will actually do with the URL (i.e. how you are going to get this video sent to YouTube, or whatever it is you are trying to do) is entirely up to you.
