Hello, I try to use [https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/web-intent/](https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/web-intent/) to share image from gallery to application. There are some instructions of plugin page but I don’t know, how can I use it in ionic2 with typescript.

Could anyone help me?

As Web Intent seems to be in Beta mode it may create problem in your app, you should use [Social Share](https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/social-sharing/) instead.

In details - I want to open image galery and in sharing options have a  
possibility to choose my applications. After adding intend filter in my  
AndroidManifets.xml with action “ACTION\_SEND” I can see my application on  
applications list but I don’t know, how to handle intent.
