For App Cards or App Deep Link code, users often see that the Card fails to render when tweeted. My Tweet At Twitter, we try to ensure that all content works equally across our web and mobile platforms. They can often find obscure bugs, which you wouldn’t have found on your own.I get the message, 'Failed to get a proxied URL for the image.' (or an My Card doesn't appear in the timeline.

Of course I never noticed this behaviour while testing my app, because I knew that the “Feedback” option was designed to send an email. Notice the extra line highlighted in bold? The Facebook app needs that line to be present, otherwise it will force close when handling the Intent.ACTION_SEND. But if you add an extra line of code, everything will work perfectly: //Launch email intentĮmailIntent.putExtra(_TEXT, 'I've been playing Tap That! Number for Android.') If you run the code listed above, and select “Facebook” in the Intent chooser that appears, you’ll see the Facebook app crash (force close). It can’t handle receiving an Intent.ACTION_SEND unless you specify the body text. Well, turns out it’s actually a problem with Facebook’s app. So there shouldn’t be a problem, right? The Intent Chooser which appears when you select 'Feedback'. ')) īut I wrote this code following the advice of many tutorials I’ve read, and plenty of other people are using the exact same approach.

The only “Feedback” option I have is a menu item designed to send an email to the developer.Īfter digging around a bit, I found that the code I was using to launch an email intent was also recognising Facebook and presenting it in the list of available apps. I received a rejection notice detailing several problems with my app, including this strange one:Īpplication’s “Feedback” functionality “Facebook” option is not working.Īt first I had no idea what this meant.

I came across a rather obscure bug today, while trying to submit my app Tap That! Number to the Amazon Appstore.
