iOS Question Share data between apps

[Cadenzo]

I am new in B4i and also in iOS. Trying my first steps to convert B4A to B4i I get a growing list of Android things that are not possible in iOS. I can not share a file, can not change screen orientation by code, ...

Some of my B4A apps are sharing text or sqlite files. So how can I do this in B4i? How can I at least share some (text) data between my Apps? Whish of this is the easyest way in B4i?

UIActivityViewController
Custom URL Schemes
App Groups
Shared Keychain Access 
Custom Pasteboards

What do you mean by sharing text or file ? Is it sharing with other people , or sharing information between different apps ?

I don't think changing orientation is possible in ios.

I would like to share some text information between my apps in iOS. So the Shared Keychain Access seems to be a solution. But I am abslolutely new in the iOS field. I only worked with Android and B4A. Is there a B4i tutorial for that?

So lets say my App A creates a text and my App B should read this text later, when it is started.

Keychain is the simplest option.

Step #1: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/keychain-problem.71863/#post-456772

Step #2: Use Phone.KeyChainPut to put data and Phone.KeyChainGet to get data.
