    Hey rc07, thanks for reaching out.

     

    At the moment, it's not possible to choose which photos appear in the photos tab or remove photos without deleting them from the account.

     

    I found this relevant idea on our idea board, though, which you can up-vote to show your support.

        Hi M S.1, I checked and it seems you had a different thread open, troubleshooting about your Photos tab on your mobile.

         

        When you say that the link takes you to this very page, I am not exactly sure I follow. Can you let me know more as to which link you're referring to?
