I want that when I click on the option in the browser, I’m sharing it with the list of possible applications. When choosing my application, I want it to receive a link from this site. I do not know how to implement it and what kind of intention filters are needed for this. Please tell me how to do this, or the technology needed for this.

    To begin, add to your manifest intent-filter for the Activity where you will receive an Intent.

    <activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme.MyTheme" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/> <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/> <data android:mimeType="text/plain"/> </intent-filter> </activity>

    Your app should now be on the share list.

    Further in Activity we accept Intent:

     String url = getIntent().getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT); Log.d("MyActivity", "onCreate: " + url);
