This share option brings up a list of modes , how the user can choose to share this app. So instead of limiting sharing options to Twitter/ email / facebook this sharing would allow any sharing method that the user prefers. Be it Bluetooth, Google Plus, Whats app, Skype , Viber , Blogger , Wordpress or any other method supported by the apps in the handset I wanted to know how do I create that option in my app. The sharing options here (based on the Ios) seem limited to Twitter/ email / facebook . Is there anyway to invoke the specific Android Sharing command? Many thanks for your help, Newbie on my first app...

I have been using it for a week now and it's great. The integration is easy for BT apps also. You can share on all methods on the phone. Need any help let me know.
