How to share video on whatsapp in iOS?

I want to share video on whatsapp but I have savePath nil error.

I used this code:

NSString    * savePath  = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents/whatsAppTmp.wam"];
savePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Movie" ofType:@"m4v"];
_documentInteractionController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:savePath]];
_documentInteractionController.UTI = @"net.whatsapp.movie";
_documentInteractionController.delegate = (id)self;
[_documentInteractionController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 0, 0) inView:self.view animated: YES];

Where is my error?

Here is the Swift version:

func sendVideo(videoName: String, senderView: UIView) {

    let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(videoName, ofType:"m4v")! 
    let fileUrl = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path)! 

    docController = UIDocumentInteractionController(URL: fileUrl) 
    docController.UTI = "net.whatsapp.movie"
    docController.presentOpenInMenuFromRect(CGRectZero, inView: senderView, animated: true)

}

//---NEXT LINE OF CODE IS OPTIONAL AND NOT RECOMMENDED, BUT YOU CAN USE IT TO TEST TO SEE IF THEY HAVE THE WHATSAPP INSTALLED
//    if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL: [NSURL URLWithString:@"whatsapp://app"]]){
NSString    * savePath  = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents/whatsAppTmp.wam"];

savePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Movie" ofType:@"m4v"];


_documentInteractionController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:savePath]];
_documentInteractionController.UTI = @"net.whatsapp.movie";
_documentInteractionController.delegate = (id)self;

[_documentInteractionController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 0, 0) inView:self.view animated: YES];
