Apple won't let you share directly to Google+, so Google's doing something about it

As it sits now, if you want to share a photo to Google+ from your iPhone, you need to take a photo with the Camera app, leave the app, and launch Google+. There really isn't any easy way to communicate with Google apps unless it's a third party developer that's went out of their way to include support. According to the Google+ Developers Blog, Google plans on changing that with a Google+ iOS SDK for developers.
Now your users can share with their Google+ circles, directly from your iOS app! In addition, the native in-app share box supports image and video attachments.
While this won't affect native iOS apps such as the Camera app, it does give iOS developers great resources for implementing Google+ into their apps. If third party camera apps want to implement direct access to Google+, they now have an easier option to do so with the Google+ iOS SDK. It will also include token support so developers can verify the identity of the devices using their servers.
