New share buttons: Threema, Houzz, Refind, StockTwits
This month we’ve added a few noteworthy services to the AddToAny platform: Threema, Houzz, Refind, and StockTwits.
Threema share button
Share to the Threema messaging app.
Houzz share button
Add images to Houzz Ideabooks.
Refind share button
Share links or save to your private reading list on Refind.
StockTwits share button
Share ideas and links on the StockTwits network.
AddToAny welcomes these new services!
New messenger buttons: Skype, Viber, Kik, WeChat, Snapchat
We’ve added five new messengers to AddToAny this month!
Skype share button
Share to Skype on the web.
Viber share button
Share to the Viber app.
Kik share button
Share to the Kik app.
WeChat share button
Share to WeChat. It’s here. The web grew tired of waiting for WeChat to create a proper sharing endpoint for the web, so we created an interim WeChat button in AddToAny. On desktop, users scan a QR code to share in the WeChat mobile app. On mobile, users copy the link and tap “Open WeChat” to share. If/when WeChat offers an open sharing endpoint for the web, we’ll switch to that one in a jiffy.
Snapchat follow button
Follow on Snapchat by setting up your Snapchat follow button.
Any messenger
AddToAny welcomes the above messaging apps in addition to SMS, Telegram, WhatsApp, Line, Yahoo Messenger, AIM, and more to come.
New share buttons and icons: SMS, Telegram, Google Classroom, GitHub
Today we are excited to highlight a few major service additions to the AddToAny sharing platform.
SMS share button
Finally, SMS sharing is ready for action! AddToAny has been rallying the top two mobile operating systems to properly implement the standard SMS scheme for years — Google & Apple finally made it happen. Using the latest versions of Android and iOS (as well as other OSs), AddToAny users can now share links from the web through SMS. In addition to “SMS” sharing, the SMS share button works for sending iMessages on iOS and in other default SMS messengers on Android.
Telegram share button
Welcome, Telegram! Many you have asked AddToAny to include Telegram sharing, and we’re delighted that the Telegram team made link sharing work in all of their apps. With AddToAny, you can now share to Telegram on both mobile and desktop.
Google Classroom share button
Students and teachers, you can now share to Google Classroom with AddToAny.
GitHub follow button
Developers, we’ve included the GitHub icon to conveniently point to your GitHub profile among your other follow buttons.
WeChat and other services
AddToAny is always looking for new services to include by default, and we work to include any service with major usage as soon as it becomes technically possible.
WeChat, for example, is one service that has been on AddToAny’s radar for a very long time, but the developers of WeChat have yet to enable sharing to their apps from the web. Until then, we recommend contacting WeChat to request that feature so WeChat can be included in AddToAny.
Thanks for your requests, and keep them coming!
