What do you do when you want to share a page on your Android tablet? That web page you just have to talk about to everyone you know. The gauche way to share the page is to copy and paste it. But, there is a better way to share a web page. Heed these steps:

  1. Go to the web page you desire to share.

    Actually, you’re sharing a link to the page.

  2. Touch the Action Overflow or Menu icon and choose the Share command.

    The command might also be called Share Page or Share Via. Either way, you see an array of apps displayed. The variety and number of apps depends on what’s installed on the tablet.

  3. Choose a method to share the page.

    For example, choose Email to send the link by e-mail, or Facebook to share the link with your friends.

  4. Do whatever happens next.

    Whatever happens next depends on how you’re sharing the link: Compose the e-mail, write a comment in Facebook, or whatever.

You cannot share a page you’re viewing on an Incognito tab.

If your Android tablet sports the NFC feature, you can share a web page by using the Android Beam feature. Simply visit the web page you want to share, and touch the back of your Android to the other device’s rear (or wherever NFC is enabled on that device). To send the page you’re viewing, touch the screen when you see the prompt Touch to Beam.
