Are there any specific facilities in IBM Worklight (to be renamed shortly to IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation) for inter-app communication - for example, sending files or data between apps?

iOS has these facilities natively, as does Android, but I can't find any specific Worklight APIs which refer to or exploit these features. I assume they could be used within a custom Cordova plugin or a Worklight Native API project, but I'm trying to understand if there are any other possibilities.

As far as I know, there are no Worklight APIs available that use those features you mention to share files and data. There is the Simple Data sharing feature, but this is meant only for relatively small strings.

Like you said, you can use those directly in a Cordova Plugin or in your native application, based on what you application's needs are.
