Share photos, links, and more
The Share charm is a quick way to share files and info with people you know and to send info to other apps. It's
available anywhere, so you don't have to stop what you're doing to share things such as your latest vacation
photos or an article you're reading. You can share with just a few people at a time, your entire social network, or
send info to another app to refer to later (for example, you can share something with OneNote).
When you come across something you want to share in one of your apps, use the Share charm. Here’s how:
Share a link
1. Browse to a webpage that you want to share.
2. Open the Share charm:

You'll see a list of the people, apps, and devices you share with most often, plus a list of apps that can
share. For example, to share the link on a social network, tap People, choose Twitter or Facebook, type a
note if you want, and tap or click the Post icon.
