Photos opens automatically

Do you have a camera or on iPhone or iPad connected to a USB port? Photos may start automatically, if a camera is connected or a card reader with a USB card plugged in. If a connected photo device is the problem, disable "Open Photos for this device" in Photos, when it launches.

Hi, Kenneth,

Go to System Preferences/Users and Groups. Click on the Login Items tab and check to see if you have Photos listed as a login item. If it is, it will open automatically upon login. You can remove it by selecting it and clicking on the Remove button. See if that solves your issue.
