Share images and files on react-native using Expo












0















I've saved the file i want to share locally using FileSystem.downloadAsync



Share.share works fine for iOS. How can I share an image I have saved locally on Android?



I've tried




  • https://github.com/lucasferreira/react-native-send-intent

  • https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-share


Both these solutions do not seem to work with Expo.



I'm using react-native version : https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-31.0.0.tar.gz



FileSystem.downloadAsync(url, FileSystem.documentDirectory+filename).then(({uri})=>{

if(Platform.OS == "android"){
// ???
}
else{
Share.share({url:uri});
}

})


Is there something i'm missing?
