UIActivityViewController not showing my custom activity image in the “MORE” list on iOS8

Question

Here's the screenshot:

In my subclass of UIActivity, I override the -activityImage method to use my own icon for the facebook share item, but it appears in the share panel but disappears in the MORE list.

Answer 1

Quite old question, but maybe the solution is helpful for others too!

In your UIActivity subclass implement/overwrite the method

- (UIImage *)activityImage {
    return [UIImage imageNamed:@"Activity Icon"];
}

to return the image to be shown in the UIActivityViewController itself (as you've done).

In addition to this implement/overwrite the method

- (UIImage *)activitySettingsImage {
    return [UIImage imageNamed:@"Activity Settings Icon"];
}

to return an(other or the same) image to be shown in the more/settings view.

Answer 2

Have you checked that your image has this format

For iPhone and iPod touch, images on iOS 7 should be 60 by 60 points; on earlier versions of iOS, you should use images no larger than 43 by 43 points. For iPad, images on iOS 7 should be 76 by 76 points; on earlier versions of iOS you should use images no larger than 60 by 60 points. On a device with Retina display, the number of pixels is doubled in each direction.
