Facing trouble while sharing text, link and images together using intent filter

Question

I am implementing intent filter to share some kind of information. But it is having a problem.

btnShareLocInfo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                Intent shareIntent = new Intent();
                shareIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Location Name:" + locName.getTitle());
                shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, locName.getTitle());
                shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, locName.getDescription());
                shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, getLocUri().toString());
                shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.parse(getResources().getString(R.string.image_url) + locName.getImage1()));
                shareIntent.setType("image/*");
                shareIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
                startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share via"));
            }
        });

Here it displays title in subject and link but doesn't display title, description in text body. Also on link click I would like to perform check if app is installed or not in phone, which doesn't work as well.

I have looked for similar problems but any of the solutions didn't work for me. Any help would be appreciated.

Bundle uses an ArrayMap inside for store info. If you use putExtra method more than one time with same key you replace the value. Form doc of ArrayMap:

> /**
>      * Add a new value to the array map.
>      * @param key The key under which to store the value.  If
>      * this key already exists in the array, its value will be replaced.
>      * @param value The value to store for the given key.
>      * @return Returns the old value that was stored for the given key, or null if there
>      * was no such key.
>      */

So, concatenate info inside use putExtra for same key more than one time. Like this:

String data = locName.getTitle() + locName.getDescription() + getLocUri().toString();

shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,data);

Instead for checking if an app is installed you can use this method.

public boolean isAppInstalled(Context context, String packageName) {
    try {
        context.getPackageManager().getApplicationInfo(packageName, 0);
        return true;
    }
    catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
        return false;
    }
}

and use it:

isAppInstalled(myContext,"com.whatsapp"); // for checking whatsapp
