Here is a way to promote your app by putting simple share button inside it, which allows user to share to different sharing services.
For now facebook and twitter are supported, but if you know any other share services, that you think should be added, please post comment here and I'll add them.

As usually here's a video:

  • Hey ar2rsawseen,

    I've implemented this in my app. When I press the button on the iOS device nothing happens. Might this be because of security settings on my devices (iPad and iPhone, both with iOS 7) or something else?

  • @hgvyas123 Do you know if there's a plug-in for Android?
  • Nup i dont know leaving this to answer for @ar2rsawseen or @nascode

    :)
  • Does this mean that "application:openUrl()" is not working on iOS 7?

  • @totebo no, it doesn't mean that. openUrl works in iOS7

  • @hgvyas123 thanks for your answer. It'd be cool if there was.
  • @unlying, thanks for ironing out my wrinkle of doubt. :)

    After a little digging it turned out to be a non unicode URL that was the problem. This article solved it:
