Status of receiving shares?

[Guyren Howe]

I want to write iOS and Android apps that receive almost any sort of shared item, participating in the Share menu etc on both platforms.

It’s not clear to me what the status of this feature is on both platforms.

There is discussion in various places about this, but it is mostly two years old.

There is https://github.com/KasemJaffer/receive_sharing_intent but it has a bunch of issues reported for it, so I’m not clear how well it works.

Can someone familiar with doing this advise? Thanks.
