Add Share app option inside app

See original GitHub issue

Summary:

There should be an option to share the app.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Add option to share in navigation drawer.
  2. On Click of share option -
Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "sharetext");
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, getString(R.string.share)));

Expected behavior: There should be an option to share the app.

Keeping the share button in the top bar (Toolbar) of the About page also seems to be a good idea to me. That way it won’t get lost in the already overcrowded About page.

I definitely think it should NOT be in the navigation drawer the way the app in the screenshot does it. Feels a lot like feature bloat and users might get annoyed, since it isn’t really something they would use often.

However, I think it could be nice to have a little “Share” icon in About. Perhaps next to the FB etc icons?
