Hi @chandrasekhar-nyros

Can you show what you did and which link you tried to share?

To be honest "react-native-social-share" has no power over what Facebook does with the shared content. It just uses the Facebook share method that is built into iOS.

Hi @doefler

I am using local url present below is my code what i am sharing

GLOBAL.BASE_URL = "http://203.193.173.125/"

let shareOptions = {
title: "Ride from "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].start_location+" to "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].end_location+" on "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].start_date,
message: "Ride from "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].start_location+" to "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].end_location+" on "+this.props.pic.ride_id[0].start_date,

Ok then it all makes sense 😄
The Facebook sharing API doesn't allow us to customize the text anymore.
Instead, Facebook scrapes the linked page and looks for graph data to pull into the post.
So all you need to do is to add graph data to each shared link.
