The Android way to share content is to send an ACTION_SEND intent. Construct the Intent object with the correct mime type and data, then you can use the Intent#createChooser method to generate a wrapper Intent that will allow the user to choose the share target from a list. Any app the user has installed that can accept that type of content will be presented to the user.

With this approach apps are able to cooperate to share content without being directly aware of one another’s existence.
