DESCRIPTION:

Sharing from AppSupport briefly pops up the share menu (which used to work) and then partially crashes the running app, returns to its last-opened view.

PRECONDITIONS:

Sailfish OS upgraded to 5.1.0.7 or later, which includes Android AppSupport 13 with the December 2025 security patch.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Open any Android app

  2. Find an item or page which you can share

  3. Try to tap on the share button, which partially or fully crashes the current app

EXPECTED RESULT:

A share menu should open with a list of currently installed Android and native (Messages, E-Mail, Play) applications that are able to receive the shared content.

ACTUAL RESULT:

Share menu just briefly flashes and closes, the user is unable to complete their action.

MODIFICATIONS:

microG, AppSupport Keyguard Stub

Same situation (german ui, 5.1.0.8, 10 III). Browser (Vivaldi) crashes, ARD Sounds too. Kickstarter just closes the sharing menu and gets back to the content/page I tried to share.

3

Same experience on the 10V and C2, in English and Dutch, so it is not device or language specific.

4

I’ve noticed on my Xperia 10 iii with Firefox in AAS that I can no longer upload or attach files. The behavior is incredibly similar to what’s described here.

5

same for my Xperia 10 II, mainly notice this with the ampparit app when trying to share (copy the link) any news articles

6

Same experience in X 10 III Italian UI. Every android app.

7

Same new bug behaviour on my Xperia 10 III, with SailfishOS 5.1.0.11

Very comforting news, considering that it’s not even known when they are going to release 5.2 for the other devices. It’s been now 2+ months since it’s been broken, just like the network signal level indicator stuck at 1 bar since 5.0.0.71 or so, i.e. since around March or April. Lack of working share function in AppSupport (and crashing the Android app whenever you forget about it and press the Share button) is really a major PITA.
