How to use share extensions #

Use Everywhere.png
You can use share extensions where ever the option to share exists. Usually the share button looks like an open square with an arrow coming out of it.

After opening the share sheet – that Apple default card that lets you share – you can tap the Command Icon to journal or the action cell below the row of icons to open in Command.

If you can’t see these icons, it’s possible that you need to add it to the share sheet. To do this, swipe to the end of the section and tap more or edit actions
