Expo sharing image/video not working with instagram

Expo SDK
1

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version: ^37.0.0
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): iOS

I created a app which includes sharing with expo-sharing package. After a long time the Instagram share option in the native share sheet doesn’t work anymore.

Current package for sharing: “expo-sharing”: “~8.3.0”.

Is there any fix or hotfix for this issue or someone else with this issue?

Current code is running in the app.

const assetUri = 'https://www.example.com/testfile.jpg', 
assetName = 'testfile.jpg';

const downloadResumable = FileSystem.createDownloadResumable(
      assetUri,
      FileSystem.documentDirectory + assetName,
      {},
      downloadProgress => this._downloadProgressHandler(downloadProgress)
);

const { uri } = await downloadResumable.downloadAsync();
await Sharing.shareAsync(uri);

Only the instagram share doesn’t work and you see a bottom sheet with “Send to” as title and placeholder box, a “Search” field and “Share” button and a text “Logged in username”.
