react-native-share-with-social-media

This package makes it super easy to add a one-click share function for social media platforms — hassle-free, with no extra pages or popups. It supports SMS, Instagram, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Snapchat.

Installation

npm install react-native-share-with-social-media

Important Note for Snapchat

For Snapchat sharing to work, ensure you provide a valid URL. The share functionality requires a properly formatted URL to open the share screen.

Usage

import { open } from 'react-native-share-with-social-media';

// Open a specific app with a message
open('whatsapp', 'This is business')
  .then(() => console.log('Shared successfully'))
  .catch((error) => console.log('Error sharing:', error));
