WhatsApp Adds Document Sharing to iOS and Android Apps - Android General

WhatsApp has made it even easier for its 1 billion active users to communicate, adding the option to share documents in a chat. This feature is rolling out today (Mar. 2) as a server-side update to users who have the most recent version of the app, so you may need to nudge your friends to update.
While document sharing is landing on both iOS and Android versions of WhatsApp, it works slightly different on each platform.

}
On Android, you first tap the Paperclip icon and then select the Document icon. Then you will be shown a list of the documents available for sharing on your device.
After Android users share a document, it will appear in the Media/WhatsApp Documents folder, and the file’s contents will be searchable in WhatsApp.
On iOS:
1. tap on the upload arrow to find the Share Document option.
2. Select a source (including iCloud Drive, Dropbox and Google Drive)
3. hunt for the file you want to share.
(notes:WhatsApp’s document sharing only supports PDFs now)
While you’re sending the file to your friend, you both see a preview of the document with its total page count and file size.

[APP][4.0+] SixPic 1.0 - Search for new Pictures to Share

Hy there
I just finished a nice little App for you folks. I warn you: It might still be buggy.
Is is called "SixPic" and has beer as icon.
What it is all about? It's about searching and sharing Images from wherever you are in Android.
You can:
* Launch the App from your favourite Launcher, search the WWW for an image, and share it using your favourite App. (For example WhatsApp, G+, Facebook - you get it?)
* Launch the App from within another App when looking for an image. For example if you are in WhatsApp, you do as you would pick a picture from your favourite Gallery App, instead of the Gallery App, you choose

, the icon of SixPic.
The permissions required are Internet (obvious?) and writing to the external storage. This is for writing temporary files to share the images across Apps.
The search provider I use is the Bing Image Search API. As I don't know if you folks like my App, I have a free subscription of the API which comes only with 5000 requests per month.
If this App is a success, and because the Bing Image Search API is quite expensive, there will be a paid version in Google Play. But there will always be a free version here at XDA. I even plan to release the source code, once I cleaned it up.
The app is available at Google Play, here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.f00.sixpic
Please report bugs at https://bitbucket.org/cimnine/sixpic . (This will also be the place to watch out for source releases.)
Attached you find some screenshots. And now I'm waiting for your feedback

PS: If you like my app, please either say "Thank you" or (even better) Submit this thread as "News Tip". Only if you don't mind, of course!
