From the few details you are giving here, I assume the Activity_2 does not know the image you want to export.

So first, you need to pass a reference to the image, or the image data itself, from Activity_1 to Activity_2.

See this post which may have what you're looking for.

The accepted answer is suggesting to use one of these three solutions:

Convert the image from Bitmap to byte array, then pass this byte array from one activity to another using an Intent object.
Save the image to the SD Card (or anywhere on the phone) and pass the image file path as a string from one activity to another, using an Intent object.
Pass the Bitmap image using an Intent object, without converting it.

I hope this helps.
