Created attachment 441821 [details] The share buttons become blocked after clicking "Save Image" and it does not fail or succeed The new update to IOS 15 has brought the default usability of the Webshare API Level 2 but I have found bug whilst implementing it. I have been attempting to implement the file sharing into my own application specifically with image files. When testing on an iPhone using IOS15, when you attempt to share an image from Safari using the Webshare API, if you select the "Save Image" option (saves image to photos application), the navigator closes but does not resolve. This means that if you attempt to activate the navigator again in any way, it is no longer available in the same context and throws an exception - you have to refresh the page to reset the unresolved navigator. This can be replicated on the demo page using Safari IOS 15 by attempting to share an image and clicking the "Save Image" button - you will see the buttons remain disabled: https://w3c.github.io/web-share/demos/share-files.htm I hope this was the right place to post this bug. It is awesome to have the Webshare API Level 2 integration progressing forwards, this is just a frustrating bug that is hindering the usability of it in the new IOS 15.

Correct link: https://w3c.github.io/web-share/demos/share-files.html … also confirmed, the promise doesn’t seem to be resolving or something.
Sorry, I didn't realise I had accidentally dropped the "l" on the end of the url! Thanks for catching that :)

We also were able to reproduce this issue on iOS15.3.1 Saving an image from within the share sheet blocks the user from being able to subsequently share the image via another app. This issue is present on multiple live web apps that we have built, and we have received several bug reports from users, sharing that they are unable to share the image after saving it.

This bug is still present in iOS 15.5 and is becoming more and more annoying. The development of social sharing is expanding enormously, and this feature is the most reported, by our users. Are there nobody who wants to address this. Is there any status of this issue? Best Regards Olle
