Bug Report: Unexpected Bottom Sheet Opens When Sharing from Gallery App on iOS

Description

When using share_handler package to share media files (images/videos) from a gallery app (e.g., Photos app) to my Flutter app on iOS, an unexpected bottom sheet is opening. This bottom sheet appears to be triggered by the share_handler package itself, interfering with the normal share flow.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install and configure share_handler package in Flutter app for iOS
2. Open the Photos app (or any gallery app) on iOS device
3. Select a media file (image or video)
4. Tap the share button
5. Select my app from the share menu
6. Observed: An unexpected bottom sheet opens instead of directly processing the shared content

Expected Behavior

When sharing from a gallery app on iOS:

• The app should receive the shared media file via share_handler
• The file should be processed directly (in my case, imported as an audio/video project)
• No bottom sheet should appear unless explicitly triggered by my app's logic
• The share extension should work seamlessly without additional UI interruptions

Actual Behavior

• An unwanted bottom sheet opens when the share intent is received from gallery apps
• This appears to be a system or package-level bottom sheet, not from my app's code
• The bottom sheet interferes with the user experience
• The issue specifically occurs when sharing from gallery apps (Photos app), but may work correctly from other sources

Environment

• Flutter Version: Flutter 3.38.0 • channel stable •
• Dart Version: Dart SDK version: 3.10.0-290.4.beta (beta) (Thu Oct 30 11:12:42 2025 -0700) on "macos_arm64"
• share_handler Version: share_handler: ^0.0.25
• Platform: iOS
• Device: iPhone 13 mini
• iOS Version: iOS 26.1
• Xcode Version: Xcode 16.4

Additional Information

• The issue specifically occurs when sharing from gallery apps (Photos app)
• Other sharing sources might work correctly
• The bottom sheet appears to be a system UI element or from the package itself
• I have a custom Share Extension, but this issue is related to share_handler package behavior
• The bottom sheet appears even before my app's code processes the shared content
• This might be related to iOS share sheet behavior or the package's internal UI handling
