Intent.ACTION_SEND Whatsapp

Question

Im trying to share a mp3 file through whatsapp. It works perfectly with other apps like gmail, but it dosent works on whatsapp. Can anyone help me? Do I need to add some put

Answer 1

WhatsApp also accepts OGG format:

Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("audio/ogg");
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, getSoundUri());
startActivity(shareIntent);

Answer 2

Try changing the MIME type to "audio/mpeg3" so that the second line reads

share.setType("audio/mpeg3")

Answer 3

You have to Include this in you code:

sendIntent.setPackage("com.whatsapp");

Answer 4

You should copy your audio file to sdcard, and share it as file, not as android resource, like this:

final Intent shareIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("audio/mp3");
shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://"+path+filename));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, getString(R.string.share_sound)));

Now it should work through whatsapp.
