Integrating with the Android share/send to menu

Post by androidmark » 02 May 2013 14:08

I'd like to create a flow that lets me use the Android "share" / "send to" menu to email myself a tweet, news reader item, web page, etc. This flow would have a trigger in the form of a shortcut that would be placed in the standard Android share menu. The flow's action would be "Mail with Gmail" and would be configured with a specific destination address (mine for example). The shortcut would grab the text of the tweet/news item or URL of the web page and email it. This would happen with one press on the share menu shortcut.

Is this currently possible in Automagic?

Not sure what you mean to do, can't you use the already built-in feature or do you want to eliminate the extra steps of entering the e-mail address and hit "send"?
I was thinking of something similar and wonder if you were able to figure something out?

I want to "share" an url from device A and receive it on device B which opens the URL in the browser. I first thought of using gmail but AM can't read e-mail content it seems...
