Share video in SnapChat only opens the app, don't open a video in it though

[serhii-kucherenko]

Steps to reproduce

1. create a function with code:

	Share.shareSingle({
    	url: `data:video/mp4;base64,${videoBase64Data}`,
    	type: 'video/mp4',
    	filename: 'Video',
    	social: 'snapchat',
 	})

2. Run it on press Button

Expected behaviour

It should open a SnapChat app and pass a selected video to the SnapChat app

Actual behaviour

Only opens a SnapChat app without passing video. No errors are showing.

I've tried only on Android - real device and simulators

I got this working in my app.
We're providing path to local file in url field. You can try to do the same by writing the video to file storage.
Our type field is the same as yours.

By the way I had the same Snapchat behavior as yours when my app was not able to find the video.

But I share successfully the same url in instagram, twitter, facebook, messenger, , email though
