I see app developers abusing any freedoms they are given within the native share sheet in the same way that some of them use text under their icons different from their apps' names, messing things up further. Like (totally made up now but serves as an example) having a video player app called X that reads "View this video with X now" under their icon in the share sheet whenever you share a video file.
Yeah, the contacts I talk to the most are usually not even suggested, like WTH Google. If they didn't alter the order of the apps in the share menu, muscle memory would do a far better job than any weird algorythm at speeding up the process of sharing anything.
Yep, I remember I had to place a file in a weird folder inside my phone's storage to disable part of the share menu where individual people and chats are placed and make it load far faster.
I honestly would love having the KitKat and earlier share menu with just a long list of installed apps sorted alphabetically.
I've briefly tried Jerboa and Lemmynade and I've stayed with the latter as it seems less buggy. What features you miss with Lemmynade?
