One way or another, the photo that's saved onto the phone must be moved to a server with a publicly visible URL ... which, as you correctly point out, iCloud offers.

If one doesn't have iCloud or similar photo hosting, one must avail themselves of similar functionality.

Personally I use Imgur for this purpose on my Android.
