Google Photos links
Google says anyone with a shared album link can view the photos, and that a link can be shared on by others. To reset it, turn link sharing off and on again. The old link stops working.
Making it private
Google says to remove all collaborators and turn off link sharing. Comments are removed and collaborators lose access.
Apple shared albums
Apple says you can share with people you choose or with anyone who has the link, and that participants can add photos, videos, and comments.
Before a frame shows an album
Anything added to the album may show on the frame. Decide who can add, and turn off adding by others if you want only your own photos.
