Help Too weird!

When I want to transfer a file, say a photo, to another app, eg Dropbox or drive, amongst the choices which come up is my Latin dictionary app which works offline!! I have never tried to use it as such, it obviously wouldn't work, but I am fascinated to know why it does this. Any ideas?
The app is com.bitknights.dict.EXPORT
 
Presumably the developer has identified the app as able to handle whichever "intent" is used for this operation. Maybe there is some operation it can perform which uses the same intent, e.g. perhaps you can pass some forms of media (i.e. documents) to it for translation? Or maybe the developer slipped up?

In any case, the reason you are seeing this is that that app has told the OS that it can handle this type of interaction.
