Description

Universal Web Share is designed to make sharing your WordPress content as easy and efficient as possible. Built with performance in mind, the plugin uses the native Web Share API, eliminating the need for third-party scripts and thereby ensuring your site’s speed remains optimal.

Key Features:

  • Lightweight and Performance-Friendly: No additional scripts are required, thanks to the use of the native Web Share API.
  • Compatibility: Works seamlessly across all WordPress themes.
  • Dynamic Sharing Text: Utilizes the post’s meta description to provide richer sharing context when available.

Why Choose the Web Share API?

The Web Share API offers a host of advantages over traditional social media share buttons:

  • Reduced website load time.
  • Seamless and intuitive in-app sharing.
  • No user tracking, respecting visitor privacy.
  • Enables sharing to various apps and platforms that the user has installed, not just specific social media sites.
