Try below code

Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(file));
shareIntent.setType("image/png");
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
        "Here is my IMAGE");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share IMAGE Using..."));

Here I am attaching an image and text. I am sending the image as a stream. You can save the image temporarily and send the URI of the file as extra with the intent.
