Share a Webpage from Safari

![Safari Share Menu on iPhone](/api/v1/images/1798baad-47e8-4ebc-9206-fb886b5abc98)

Sharing a link from Safari takes two taps — but the share sheet can do much more than just send a URL. Here's the full picture.

## The basics

1. Open the page you want to share
2. Tap the **Share button** (square with upward arrow) at the bottom
3. Pick your app: iMessage, WhatsApp, Mail, AirDrop, etc.
4. Send

## The hidden power moves

The share sheet isn't just for sharing — it's a mini command center:

| Action | How |
|---|---|
| **Copy link** | Tap "Copy" in the share sheet (faster than selecting the URL) |
| **Add to Reading List** | Save for offline reading — syncs across all Apple devices |
| **Add to Home Screen** | Creates an app-like icon for any website |
| **Add Bookmark** | Save permanently in your bookmarks |
| **Find on Page** | Search for text within the current page |
| **Print** | Send to AirPrint printer or save as PDF |
| **Markup** | Screenshot and annotate the page |

## Alternative: long-press the URL bar

Long-press the address bar and tap **Copy** to grab the link without opening the share sheet. Quick and minimal.

## Share as a rich preview vs. plain link

When you share via iMessage or WhatsApp, Safari automatically includes a **rich preview** (title + thumbnail). If you just paste a copied link, some apps show the same preview, others show the raw URL.

## Customize your share sheet

The share sheet shows your most-used apps first. To reorder:

1. Scroll to the right in the apps row
2. Tap **More** (three dots)
3. Tap **Edit** in the top-right
4. Drag apps to reorder, toggle favorites on/off

Put your three most-used sharing targets first — it saves a scroll every single time.
