Step #1: Write the Bitmap to a file on internal storage, using the compress() method

Step #2: Set up FileProvider to be able to serve files from where you are storing the bitmap

Step #3: Use FileProvider.getUriForFile() to get a Uri representing that bitmap

Step #4: Use ACTION_SEND to offer that bitmap to other apps for sharing purposes
