Access your photos from your phone using the Phone Link app

Controlling photo visibility takes minimal effort inside the app.

Launch the Phone Link app.

Add a new mobile device if none appear linked. Connected devices require clicking the Settings button (it looks like a gear) in the top-right corner before selecting the Features tab.

Locate the Photos tile on the right side under Features. Flip the toggle switch to the On position to grant permission for viewing mobile images.

Revoking access requires flipping that exact switch back to the Off position.

Close the settings page once finished.

That completes the configuration.

Ultimately, syncing mobile photos keeps recent snapshots within arm's reach without cluttering local storage.
