Can you also try it on another phone? If that doesn't work, can you post the device logs (logcat) here?

it is my test project and apk

I can share it to facebook and youtube
but sharing failed when sending to WeChat and Line

I honestly am clueless about the fix to this bug right now. The source code of FileProvider is almost the same as Android's official FileProvider (android.support.v4.content.FileProvider). It was mostly a copy-paste anyways. I couldn't spot any potential flaws in the code yet.

Also, sorry for the late response. And thank you for sharing the test project. Have you tried testing it on another device?

I've recently googled this issue and found the following entries:

tvbarthel/IntentShare#32
BranchMetrics/cordova-ionic-phonegap-branch-deep-linking-attribution#287

These entries suggest that the issue may be caused by WeChat and/or Line themselves rather than my plugin. According to this entry, on the other hand, it seems possible to share on WeChat and/or Line but it will limit the usability of the plugin in the following ways:

• it will no longer work on Android API 24 and above
• AFAIK, using setPackage() function will remove all applications from the share menu except WeChat and/or Line

So, until me or someone else figures out a way to fix this issue, I'll mark this issue unsolvable.
