On iOS 7.1.2, whenever you open a photo, for instance, or a webpage or anything, you get the little share button (a square with an up arrow). The problem is mine only shows "Mail" and "Text message", which is weird, considering all the other messaging or cloud apps I have installed. I tried searching the web, but couldn't find anyone with a similar problem. Any thoughts?
 
Welcome to iPhone Forums, intrelis!

Before iOS 8, the sharing menu was quite limited. That's why you don't get more options. Apple added support for sharing via third party apps with iOS 8. So this is not a problem, that's how it was meant to work with the software you've installed on your iPhone.

Hope that helps.
 
Oh, I see. That's quite sad. Thanks for the information! Do you perhaps know if there are any third party apps that expand that functionality?
 
You're welcome.
As explained above: Apple didn't allow that feature before iOS 8, so none of the apps can expand it.
