Share extension doesn't work on iOS 18 and above

[marko-finmatics]

Share extension stopped working for me after iOS version went to 18. The same code runs without any issues on the iOS < 18.

I don't get any errors in the console. When I want to share some file, I see the icon of my app, but when I click on it, nothing happens.

I found potential fix here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79002378/ios-18-0-shared-extention-open-app-url-cant-work

What could be the problem?

Fix that worked for me

        private func redirectToHostApp(type: RedirectType) {
            // load group and app id from build info
            loadIds();
            let url = URL(string: "SharingMedia-\(hostAppBundleIdentifier)://dataUrl=\(sharedKey)#\(type)")
            var responder = self as UIResponder?

            while (responder != nil) {
                if let application = responder as? UIApplication {
                    application.open(url!)
                }
                responder = responder!.next
            }
            extensionContext!.completeRequest(returningItems: [], completionHandler: nil)
        }
