Top Flutter Sharing and Intent packages
Last updated: April 2, 2024
Intents allow apps to communicate data to other apps. Implicit intents can also accept actions and one of those actions is the ACTION_SEND command which indicates we want to send data across apps. To send data, you need to specify the data and its type, and the system identifies compatible receiving activities and display them to the user.
This sending and receiving data between applications with intents is most commonly used for social sharing of content. Thus, intents allow users to share information quickly and easily, using their favorite applications.
The complete list of Flutter packages that can add Content Sharing, File Sharing, URL Launcher, Quick Actions and Intent in your Flutter app is provided below.
