Getting started

If you are using react-native >= 0.60 you just need to do a simple:

yarn add react-native-share

Or if are using npm:

npm i react-native-share --save

After that, we need to install the dependencies to use the project on iOS(you can skip this part, if you are using this on Android).

Now run a simple: npx pod-install or cd ios && pod install. After that, you should be able to use the library on both Platforms, iOS and Android.

Then simply import:

import Share from 'react-native-share';

Share.open(options)
  .then((res) => {
    console.log(res);
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    err && console.log(err);
  });

Which you do something similar to this:
