        @sdetweil Maybe. I don’t know how the picker stores the relationship to the app and the permissions. If it’s in the browser in some way, launching from a phone might not work. It might need to be from the browser on the MM.

              @sdetweil so the user wouldn’t have to Re-select after an hour? That can’t be right.

                  @sdetweil The way they want it to work is that the user makes the selection, the app gets the items, the session ends. In this case, that would mean the module would have to pull the photos locally which would limit the number of photos available by the amount of space available. I might as well just use a different module and put all my photos somewhere on my network.

                      @sdetweil yeah Google was one of my backups. We are primarily an Apple family but there’s no iCloud module that I’m aware of. I’ll have to do an export or figure something else out.
