popup_menu.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
    android:id="@+id/menu_item_share"
    android:title=""
    app:showAsAction="always"
    app:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider"
    />
</menu>

I had this issue as well once and after some digging inside the Logcat of Play store ready APK, I found the problem; it might apply to you as well.

The Issue was NoClassDefFoundError exception on ShareActionProvider ! Solution is to add this rule to your ProGuard file such as proguard-rules.pro and that's it!

-keep class android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider { *; }
