[Android] How to share Keychain elements between multiple apps?

See original GitHub issue

I am using this module to share login information across multiple, at least 4, applications. I have achieved this on iOS using this module. However the same code does not work on Android as I expected. I am using Keychain.getInternetCredentials(server) and Keychain.setInternetCredentials(server, username, pass) functions. Each app uses these operations with a common server string as a parameter. My problem is I set from app A and get from app B but I could not retrieve the data that I set from app A.
