Problem Breakdown

1. Share Button Unresponsive

Impact: Users are unable to share scanned documents, defeating the core purpose of the app.

2. No File Preview or Confirmation
Behavior: After scanning, there is no visible confirmation or preview that a file (PDF/JPG) was created.
Possible Cause: File was not successfully saved, or saved in an inaccessible path.

Impact: Users assume the app is broken or non-functional.


Suggested Fixes Summary

Handle all possible failure points gracefully.
Ensure proper file URI and permission handling.
Improve user experience with confirmations or error messages.
