CleanShare is a free, open-source Xposed module that cleans up the Android Share Sheet. Version 3.4.0 by developer hxreborn needs Android 11 or newer and weighs about 3 MB. TopDown APK hosts the unmodified, verified file with its SHA-256 checksum.

Free, no ads, GPL-3.0 source

CleanShare is free and carries no ads. The code is published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0-only licence, so anyone can read what the module does.

There are no in-app purchases or paid tier.

Direct Share, Quick Share and target filtering

The module hides Direct Share suggestions and blocks share target profiling. It can also hide Quick Share, also known as Nearby Share.

A filter lets you pick apps to hide from the sheet, or the reverse, show only the apps you choose. One extra option deletes screenshots after you share them, and it requires root. A built-in settings app controls these options.

Requirements and the January 2026 release

CleanShare was first released on January 9, 2026, and the current version was updated on November 4, 2026. It expects Android 11 or higher on an AOSP ROM. You also need an Xposed manager that supports libxposed API 101, such as Vector 2.1 or newer.

Those requirements rule out stock setups without an Xposed framework.
