Description

My app is all about sharing photos. The first-party Photos app can use the com.apple.sharesheet.allow-custom-view entitlement along with UIActivityViewController’s setCustomViewController method, but third-party apps do not have this advantage. To get around this, we have to create an interstitial view where people can create a selection and configure their preferences before sending it to the system share sheet, which is a major user experience setback.
