How to add apps to share menu in ios10

[mcventurella]

Hello,

In ios9 I was able to go into the Photos app, choose a photo that I wanted to share, in the "share menu" hit More... and toggle the app I wanted to use to share (e.g. another email app). That toggled-on app then appeared in the "share menu" going forward.

However in ios10, hitting More... only shows me the existing apps that are currently in the "share menu". I cannot add a new app to this "default" list !

Can someone help?

Thx

I don't recall an option in iOS 9 where one could "add" an app to the share sheet. You could toggle on and off. It's still that way. Maybe you have all yours toggled on and there's no more to toggle on. Adding new apps to the share sheet hasn't been an option for users. You can download new apps, and it might show up there. Apple decides which apps go on the share sheet. I hope I'm wrong, because I have a few apps I'd like to add.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, it's working the same for me in iOS 10 as it did in iOS 9. I pic a Photo, hit Share, scroll and hit More, and then get a sheet of apps I can toggle on or off.

What are you seeing?

Hi Rene,

In ios9, that's correct - I was able to see my 2nd email client app in the sheet of apps (and toggle it). However in ios10 now, that app doesn't automatically appear in the sheet... Is there a way of getting the app to be added to the sheet ?

Thank you

Is it possible the email app you want to use stopped offering a share extension?

Sorry for getting back to you late... That was my initial belief, but highly likely the case. Thanks all for your input

Is it possible the email app you want to use stopped offering a share extension?

Would it need to be updated for iOS 10 if it worked in iOS 9? Or is the share extension the same?

I'd email the dev to find out what the deal is.
