Research direction

In share_plus, start by locating the Android implementation of sharing and compare its current Sharesheet behavior with the Android Intent resolver guidance linked in the issue. Determine how an Android-specific option should affect repeated share calls, then verify the behavior with the plugin's existing tests or platform test setup.

Plugin

share_plus

Use case

Currently the share_plus plugin on Android always forces user to use the Sharesheet UI.

It works in many cases, however it does not allow user to select a default target for a given mimetype and then omit the intent selection for the following calls.

Proposal

It would be great if the share_plus provided an option/flag to use the Intent resolver on Android.

So, the user can select desired app/intent and make it a default selection for the following calls.
