My requirement is to share on Social networking sites. So, I have already done with Facebook and Twitter. But I am stuck with Google+. I have the following code to share on Google+, but the app forcecloses when I start activity. This occurs only when the Google+ app isn't installed on device already. I know this sharing intent requires the Google+ already installed to start the activity.
Now what I need to do is at least to inform the user that the google+ sharing requires already installed google+ app through dialog or toast instead of getting force closed (If possible by clicking on ok on the dialog should redirect to the google+ on google play). If the google+ app is installed already it goes as usual.
Intent shareIntent = ShareCompat.IntentBuilder.from(this)
.setText("Hello there! This is a pic of the lazy cat")
.setType("image/jpeg")
.setStream(Uri.parse(path))
.getIntent()
.setPackage("com.google.android.apps.plus");
startActivity(shareIntent);
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
