Extension Usage Instructions

                        Share links and text with friends through your Android devices!

From your PC: right click on any link, text selection, image or anywhere on a page to share it with your Android devices. From your Android device: tap on the notification and choose the Android app to open your link.

Download the companion Android app from Google Play Store (it's also free): http://goo.gl/HNvZ3

You can share with any app (including SMS messaging, BlueTooth, Copy to clipboard, ...), and you can choose WhatsApp right from this extension to quickly share with it.

This app is not affiliated in any way with WhatsApp Inc., quick links to WhatsApp are there just because that's what I wrote this app for: to share stuff from my PC to my friends on WhatsApp.

The app is completely free and open source (GPLv3), source code for this extension (and for the companion Android app) is available at https://github.com/WhatsHare
