I think the current "share" icon is sub-optimal. Maybe it's to do with routeing, because it looks like it means that boxy vehicles must turn right, or something like that. It's not immediately obvious what it means, nor is it widely used (maybe not even used at all) elsewhere.
I suggest it should be changed to [something widely used elsewhere](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Share_icon). The meaning of that one isn't immediately obvious, either, but it has the benefit of being far more widely known because it is far more widely used.
Currently, when I give written instructions on how to share the map, I end up saying something like "It's the third button up from the bottom, the one that looks like it means cardboard boxes must turn right." It would make life easier if I could tell people to click the share icon and have most people know exactly which one I mean without further explanation.
