I created a Single View Application
in Xcode and added a Share Extension
target called "Add Note" to it.
After selecting "Add Note" from the Share Menu in Safari, a widget gets invoked instead of my actual full app.
What do I need to change to get my full app invoked instead of the widget?

You can't, the share extension uses it own view. The share extensions are ment to start the full app. – rckoenes Mar 17 '15 at 13:23

You wrote both time "share extensions" - I'm confussed. – Matt Mar 17 '15 at 13:41

Sorry the is the word not, missing, a share extension is not ment to start a full app. The idea is the extension show a simple view which allows the user to share some content. – rckoenes Mar 17 '15 at 14:01

OK, but how to invoke the full app from the Share Menu? Do I need a Action Extension for that or some other kind of "hack"? (I can't remember the apps name but it's definitely prossible to "skip" the widget) – Matt Mar 17 '15 at 14:05

Well it is not ment to do it, but you could just extend the share view to match you full app I guess. But are you sure you want a share extension then, since the share extension is just for share some information with other app or site. – rckoenes Mar 17 '15 at 14:11

My goal is that a user can send a link, image or text from the Share Menu to my "full" app. What kind of extension is the best for the job? – Matt Mar 17 '15 at 14:17
