PWA Share Targets not working

reto

The first thing I did was to install the Tridoc PWA so that I can access my document. While Tridoc readily installs on the Desktop from Vanadium id doesn't show up when attempting to share a PDF from the PDF viewer. I then also installed the Share Target Demo App squoosh which regsisters a Share Target for images which also doesn't work.

In an evironment without play store it is particullary important to have fully working PWA. Am I missing a setting or is the play store and chrome needed to get PWA share targets to work?

As far as I know, Vanadium does not support share intents in general, not only for PWAs.

I am not sure why that is the case. From a quick search on GitHub and in this forum, I found nothing on this subject.

You could try with another browser on GrapheneOS that does support share intents like Brave. I don't know if it will work with the PWA.

thanks treequell , there aren't many browser supporting this feature: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Manifest/share_target#browser_compatibility. I only found an apk from an official source for opera, but it says that my phone (pixel 7 pro) isn't compatible. Do you know of other browser that can be installed without the play store?

treequell not only for PWAs.

I have just realized that. After more than one year. It seems I cannot share URLs with Vanadium whereas I can choose Brave, Bromite, Mull or Fennec as targets.

For chromium (nightly build) it also says "App not installed as app isn't compatible with your phone."

I've been looking through https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Vanadium and I haven't been able to find anything about share intents. But I am also not sure what the correct name is. I guess it's somewhere in this page here:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent

The only intent in Vanadium I can find is the Web Search Intent, which seems to let you web search text that you highlight on a webpage in Vanadium.

Seems to be done using something called Android Sharesheet
