     As I said before, don't only say what does *not* work, but also say   
   which 'Share' options *are* offered on *your* phone!   
      
     So for the passport photo example: In your photo or file manager app,   
   long-press on the photo/file so that it gets selected. Now there will   
   probably a 'Share' option on the screen. Tap that. Now a popup will   
   appear, showing which Share destinations/apps are available on *your*   
   phone. Tell us *all* the apps which are listed, including those under   
   'More' (need to swipe the bottom part to the left).
