Add ability to Share image from Status

[hesterbruikman]

Feature Issue

User Story

As a user, I want to Share an image so that I can send images to apps and contacts outside of Status.
As a user I want to Save an image so that I can keep it for later use.

Description

Summary: As per feature request #11912

Share image comes with a design update that should apply to Android and iOS. Currently the implementation differs between Android and iOS (see #12474)

Acceptance Criteria

• Share option is available when viewing image in full screen
• UI is update to reflect design update

Notes

• Note that this request is somewhat orthogonal to e.g. blocking screenshots and might need community debate to understand if easily sharing images outside of Status is desirable from a privacy point of view. That said, the ability to share is already available albeit with a workaround by either saving and sharing the image or enabling screenshots and sharing an image
• Note that this issue is distinct from Android "Share" intents #12148, which describes ability to Share an image to Status

Is there any work being done in regards to #12148?

Thank you for the response. (I originally opened the issue some time ago).

I'm not sure how much work it is to implement, but that (to me) is the #1 thing that makes status hard to use.

More often then not, I send links, screenshots etc through the share menu. Navigation through status, or copy and paste, while it works, is more trouble than it's worth and usually leads me to just use other messengers. Those that I recommend status to, thats usually their biggest pain as well.

Otherwise, this is one of the best there is.
