You are creating a chooser. It contains all intents that reply to ACTION_SEND text/plain.

To have your comment activity in that list, you need make an intent-filter in your manifest matching that actions for your comment Activity.

Alternatively (and moreeasily, too), if you don't want your Comment activity to respond to external ACTION_SEND text/plain, you can use the response given to this question : Custom filtering of intent chooser based on installed Android package name : Add a Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS extra to the intent.
