The "Recently Used" section occupies only a small portion of the available space in the Share menu.
The "Recently Used" section occupies majority of the space, resulting in the "All Apps" section having a ridiculously little amount of space.

Question for UX: Should we limit the space for "Recently used "(while keeping it scrollable), or the current behaviour is the one expected? TY!
I'd love a simple long-press on a pinned share item to remove it. that'd help.
If I understand the problem correctly, I think the recently used app section should "scroll with" the other list? Does that make sense/is possible?
Would it help if the amount of recent apps/actions are reduced to 6? That way, youâll have space for at least 2 apps in the âAllâ list.

I think 6 is a good max. maybe even 4. Max of 6 with longpress to remove would solve the problem for me.

I like @ekager's idea as well, in addition to a sensible max. đ
Great. That behaviour works for me. Thanks @ekager @dep-dt for the ideas and inputs!
Letâs decide on:
I like to give this a shot. Currently limited to 6 items and trying to make the section horizontally scrollable. Any tip is welcome.
@mcarare @ekager Hmm. Apparently the Share sheet isnât yet implemented according to spec. See #9332.
The spec doesnât have âRecently usedâ or âAll actionsâ. Instead, it calls for a section called âShare a linkâ.
Let's double check what the UX spec is in #9332 before continuing.
Regarding the 6 items limit, it's actually already implemented, just tested it on Android 10 OnePlus 7 and it worked as expected. We should investigate why this doesn't work on some devices
This has been fixed for a while now, so I'm going to close this issue.
