Android Question Limit the apps that are shown for "ACTION_SEND"

[opus]

Hi, thanks to a code snippet posted by Erel I found a way to send a file from my app using an intent.

   Dim u As Uri 'ContentResolver library
   u.Parse("file://" & File.Combine(  File.DirRootExternal,lFileName))
   Dim i As Intent
   i.Initialize(i.ACTION_SEND, "")
   i.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM",u)
   i.SetType("*/*")
   StartActivity(i)

Using the code above all apps that could be used to send a file are shown. Is there a way to limit those (by number, by type ...)?

Thanks, I'll look into that one.

You can also build this list yourself with PackageManager.QueryIntentActivities. This way you have full control over the list of apps.
