IOS - Cannot Share with Snapchat Using UIActivityViewController

Question

I am working on an image editing application and we want to provide a short message with a hashtag next to the image. It works great for most apps, some apps that don’t support posting (like Facebook) just ignore it, but Snapchat just doesn't show up. When I completely delete the message, Snapchat appears and works fine.

Here is my code that makes Snapchat not displayable (also doesn't work when using UIActivityItemProvider):

let message = "Short message, #hashtag" let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [message, image], applicationActivities: nil) 

Here's the code that doesn't send the message and call Snapchat:

 let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [image], applicationActivities: nil) 

Is there a way to get Snapchat to ignore this message so that it appears? I know this may be a problem for their application, since this is the only thing we found is not displayed, but maybe there is a way to “hide” this message from Snapchat?

Thanks!:)
