I have my son set up with Family Link. For some reason, when I got a new phone, whenever I take a screen shot on my phone, it shows up on my son's phone. The only thing that transfers is a screen shot. This didn't happen with my old phone and the settings haven't changed (at least, not by me). Does anyone know how to turn off this function?

Hello SaraAasebo! Welcome to the Community! We understand your question, and we're here to help. The way Family Link works, it doesn't have an option to sync photos. This guide provides more info on Family Link: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS10003399/
From your description, it sounds like you have turned on Family Sharing, and this feature does allow photo sharing. This guide has a drop-down menu called Use the Shared family album. Is this feature turned on?
Here's the web address for the guide referenced:

We look forward to hearing back from you with what helps.
