Simple Send PopUP and Simple Get PopUp

Dear all,

I’m trying to do the following:

Open a popup dialog that allow some options like: send by email, copy to dropbox, copy to google drive, send by WhatsApp… etc etc. 

Then, a file can be passed to the app we choice. If that app accept files, then take it and do the necessary talks with it (for example dropbox app copy to an app the user choice, the email app send it by email…)

I have used URL sheme for open Whastapp and pass same text. But this appear to be more complexity.

I point to the activity popup, and social popup, but not sure of it.

Also, from the inner of the app I have seen another button to receive a file from other app with the very same popup.

Any chance to do this?

What do you suggest?

Url shemmes?

My goal is to copy a file to dropbox app for example, and can retrieve this file from the dropbox app in future for recover data.

Using this popup and local app installed by the user, no need to internally at the app connect with dropbox or other. Only need the user install the dropbox app, and my app can send / get file from other apps like dropbox app.

Any suggestion about how to do this?

Thanks so much in advance,

Confirmed on Android:

It is the Social Plugging.  I’m testing with the following code :

And can pass the file without issue to the other apps (for example copy to dropbox).

But, I don’t know the way to get that file from the other app. I mean, a similar social popup but that get a file from other app.

Any ideas ?

thanks so much,

I’m so glad to introduce you all my new plugin that can manage Uri in Android.

The plugin (actual version) allow to pick a file using the android dialog.

Also allow to get an external file knowing it’s uri.

And can share a file in a simple way.

It is here:

https://marketplace.coronalabs.com/plugin/android-file-and-uri-manager

I’m preparing some samples to show its functionality. For example, with this plugin it is so easy to get a file (custom extension) that it is open with our app.

Hope it can be useful for the community!

Best regards, and thanks for allow me to be here.
