This is the first suggestion I have. I am all happy doing my app thing and then the app does this. Now I am not sure if this is my tablet or the programmer, but, this is when I am trying to share my reading to facebook. (It is share this reading off screen).

My first suggestion is to maybe not have this happen in an app.
My second suggestion is to have more apps allowing linking to facebook, I have a video of what you get when you try and share, but, I do a lot of readings using my app, and it would be better functionality to share the reading to facebook on whatever app company you are using.

These matters are important with the general rise in therapists / readers being encouraged to use social media more for readings and it would be worthwhile to have all app companies post to facebook, which allows the cards to have their meanings as well. It is all well and good saying about taking a screenshot of the spread, but in the spreads you generally get what the cards mean in the spread also.
Maybe I am being picky, but, Galaxy Tone with their apps in general, you can add your own meanings and have the app generated card meanings on the facebook without the screen shots, then you have to look through the deck book then you have to type it in. It is a lot better for the querant to see everything in context without having to look here there and everywhere.
I have tried in some apps to take a video of the card and the meaning and add my own. As I said with the use of social media being more of an integrative experience for both parties.
So within the context of this thread I think what Celtictarot is asking for is a method for sharing spreads created in-app.
I don't use tarot apps, but I do have other apps on my iPhone and one of my major gripes about them is "features" that can't be turned off. I finally get fed up with the Facebook integration in a slot app that couldn't be turned off that I stopped using it. (The company's response to my inquiry that Facebook integration was a feature that they weren't interested in turning off didn't help.)I read the cards and all I need is the images, so anything else is pretty extraneous and if incorporated as a feature I couldn't switch off, would be a deal breaker in terms of my using an app.

So developers should realize that there isn't going to be any feature that everyone likes, so as many of them should have on/off toggles in the preferences as possible. I'm pretty sure it's much easier to build that in at the beginning than it is to retro-program the change after the code is finalized.
