I have been working on a project on android gallery application. I have implemented image sharing using intents which is working fine with all apps images are being shared there but when it comes sharing images to AppLock to store them into vault it is not working.

When I share image to AppLock the activity opens and closes without showing anything. I am using the following code to share images.

private Intent createShareIntent()
{
    Intent intent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
    intent.setType("image/*");
    File image=new File(currentImageUri.getPath());
    Uri uri=FileProvider.getUriForFile(this,this.getApplicationContext().getPackageName()+".GenericFileProvider",image);
    intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,uri);
    return intent;
}

I have almost searched everywhere for this but could not find any help.

You can refer to this link, might be helpful. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7661875/how-to-use-share-image-using-sharing-intent-to-share-images-in-android – Ranjeet Chouhan Jun 30 '18 at 09:24
This method wouldn't work because if is exposing file:/ uri to external apps which doesn't work after Android M. FileProvider had to be used. – Bilal Yasin Jun 30 '18 at 09:29
