How to use ActionSheetIOS attaching email TO

Question

I am using ActionSheetIOS to let user open his personal Email client on iOS. Unfortunately I do not know how to populate the recipient (to part) of the email. I didn't find anything in the RN documentation.

Any help?

I don't think it's possible: http://www.openradar.me/14344842, http://www.openradar.me/12393854. There is a way to Swizzle around it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12623260/how-do-i-set-recipients-for-uiactivityviewcontroller-in-ios-6 — peterp, Nov 24 '16 at 18:15
Thank you for the comment. Unfortunately I saw that it is impossible, and that's why I will try another way. — Mark, Nov 25 '16 at 08:06

Because as some guys confirmed that this thing is impossible, I think I will go for this other way: https://github.com/chirag04/react-native-mail

You could try opening the mail client with Linking.openURL() and a mailto: link.

something like: Linking.openURL('mailto:example@domain.com?subject=example&body=example').catch(err => console.error('An error occurred', err).

Hey thank you for the answer. I already used the `openURL`, but I prefer to use the `ActionSheetIOS` component so the user can choose which client mail to use – Mark Oct 28 '16 at 20:33
makes sense... I can't think of any other way to do this with ActionSheet though :( – Guillaume H. Oct 28 '16 at 20:37
Thank you anyway. I hope in a new idea – Mark Oct 30 '16 at 19:52
