Can I use UIActivityViewController for sharing on Facebook?

I am trying to use UIActivityViewController for sharing on facebook. When i use

UIImage* image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"image1.png"];
NSArray* dataToShare = @[@"test",image];
UIActivityViewController* activityViewController =
[[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:dataToShare
                                  applicationActivities:nil];
activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = @[UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll];

I don’t see the Share on Facebook icon, although I didn’t exclude the UIActivityTypePostToFacebook. there is no predefined UIActivity for facebook?

thank

Try the following: if you want only a common facebook icon:

-(IBAction)shareButtonPressed:(id)sender { NSLog(@"shareButton pressed");

NSString *texttoshare = _txt;
UIImage *imagetoshare = _img;
NSArray *activityItems = @[texttoshare, imagetoshare];    
UIActivityViewController *activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems applicationActivities:nil];
activityVC.excludedActivityTypes = @[UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypePostToTwitter, UIActivityTypePostToWeibo];
[self presentViewController:activityVC animated:TRUE completion:nil];
}

// in the list of the excluded type of activity, insert any other types of activities that you want to exclude
