  Hi there,

  This is usually controlled by the Featured Image setting, which is a setting you can find in the page or blog post editor on the right. More info here: https://wordpress.com/support/featured-images/

  Setting a featured image will usually allow you to determine what image is shown with your link when sharing in apps and on social media. Please note that setting a featured image is a “suggestion” that most outside services will honor, but tde image they choose to show with a link can sometimes be out of our control. More info on that here: https://wordpress.com/support/publicize/#images-in-publicize

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
