in menu xml file you need to add yourapp:showAsAction="always" like below.

<item
    android:id="@+id/Option"
    android:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_settings"
    android:title="Option"
    yourapp:showAsAction="always"/>

<item
    android:id="@+id/Save"
    android:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_save"
    android:title="Save"
    yourapp:showAsAction="always"/>
