I don’t like how my friends, family, and work contacts are mixed in to the menu when I press share. I see a random jumble of people from various apps on my device.

I want to clean it up and just keep a few apps there (ex. Copy to clipboard, open in Firefox, share to signal) and remove the rest. Is this possible anymore?

Some old threads suggest ShareDr but I can’t install it since it’s for an older version of Android

    Not sure if it can be done. The Android share menu has been a shit show for years. I also really wish this would be addressed.

      What? You don’t like a little adventure of “where the fuck did that contact go” or “where the hell is that app icon and why has it changed themes entirely again?”

        “What? You don’t want to share this to someone you haven’t spoken to in a year?”

    If you long press a share target you can pin it to the top. It’s something at least.

    If you have a Samsung, Goodlock can edit the share sheet down to the very app, as well as favorite contacts. I’ve also been using LinkSheet (available on F-Droid) with ClearURL to open links notorious for nasty redirects, and it may help with some of these features you’re looking for.

      Goodlock sounds nice, but I can’t use it unfortunately.

      Linksheet looks interesting, I’ll check it out!

      That might help, is that limited to Samsung devices?

          I’ll have to look more later, I couldn’t find where that setting was

    Specifically for me, if anyone knows how to disable the gmail buttons at the top I’d be interested. It comes up with two gmail accounts I never use, one of which I don’t even remember signing into on this phone, and they won’t go away lol.

      Darn this would have been nice, but looks like it no longer works (at least for me)
