How do I customize a UIActivityViewController to show a URL link when posting to facebook and twitter?

Question

So I\'m trying out the new UIActivityViewController in iOS 6, and it\'s really easy to get up and running, but I can\'t figure out how to control it like I want

Answer 1

Updated the answer for Swift 3.0

let url = URL(string: "google.com")
let shareText = "Your string goes here"
let shareItems: [Any] = [shareText, url!]

let activityVC = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: shareItems, applicationActivities: nil)
activityVC.excludedActivityTypes = [.airDrop, .postToFlickr, .assignToContact, .openInIBooks]

self.present(activityVC, animated: true, completion: nil)

Facebook won't accept the string, but, like many other of the social media sites, will show an image/link box for the URL
