Cannot share image to whatsapp from shareOptions

[fnanni-0]

When calling SocialShare.shareOptions('some text', imagePath: imagePath); and choosing WhatsApp, only 'some text' is sent, not the image. This is working perfectly on Telegram, Instagram, Mail, etc.

Couldn't try it with Android, I tested this with iOS.

I see the this issue on iOS. On Android, sharing both image and text to WhatsApp seems to work. Can I help fix this? The key code seems to be here:

Maybe the code determines that the file does not exist? But why would that happen just for WA? There aren't any error logs associated with this.

I verified that WhatsApp won't accept both - this could be true for other messengers (e.g. Facebook seems to discard text if image is shared). I whipped up a quick "fix" for the situation: if the image path is specified in shareOptions then I only send out the image, not the content. My commit, should it be useful for anyone is here.

If there is interest I can clean this up and split out e.g. shareOptionsText and shareOptionsImage to make things a bit cleaner.

I forked and the diff, should it be useful to anyone, is here: https://github.com/ShekarMudaliyar/social_share/compare/master...vejmelkam:master

I'm not even making this a PR.
