It has to be fb. I have the same issue when trying to share a fb pic to Instagram. I have to save the pic then share it. Must have been the recent fb update.

I've been having the same problem for a few days now. WhatsApp tech support has not provided a cause or a fix yet.

No Google Plus, TweetCaster, or UberSocial sharing is possible in my phone either.

Same here...FB strikes again

instead of sharing a post just share FB pic on Whatsapp and then tell

I just installed a WhatsApp update, still seeing the sharing issue not fixed apparently.

Facebook update just received, seems to finally fix the issue on my Galaxy S6 Edge Plus.
