The Beet app for iOS: Share Sheet - no link in Tweets from articles in the app

iOS 13.3.1
The Beet app for iOS (version 1.0.2)
Date: 02/08/2020

Description:

There is a minor bug with Twitter sharing and The Beet app for iOS. If the user shares an article from inside of the app using the Twitter option from the iOS share sheet, there is no link in the tweet that is created.

There should be a link to the article. Please take a look at the attached screenshots.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch The Beet app for iOS
2. Head to any article in the app
3. Select the share option
4. Select Twitter
5. Note that the created tweet lacks an active link/url

Result: Sharing an article from inside The Beet iOS app using Twitter from the iOS share sheet does NOT result in a tweet with an active link

Expected: There should be an active link to an article

Select the share option...

Select the Twitter option from the share sheet...

No link from the generated tweet!

  1. Hello there - Did you actually complete the TWEET? It works fine on our end. The built-in iOS share sheet doesn't expose the link in this case. We are looking into updating our apps to reflect the original URL more clearly.
