Add your favourite photos to your Nokia Lumia Start screen

Add your favourite photos to your Nokia Lumia Start screen

Whether you’re using the Nokia Lumia 800 and its 8-Megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics or using the entry-level Nokia Lumia 610 and its 5-Megapixel camera once you’ve taken photos you can do more with them than just viewing them in the gallery. Here we look at how to make photos work harder on your Windows Phone.

Once you’ve taken photos on your Nokia Lumia you can access them by tapping the double-width Pictures Live Tile on the Start screen. However, have you ever wondered how the images that are shown the Start screen are chosen?

What’s more, do you wish you could choose the images you want to appear not only on the Start screen but also as wallpaper with the Pictures app itself?

It’s a simply trick but means so much to those looking to personalise their Nokia Lumia. All you need to do is tag the photos you want to see on the Start screen as ‘Favourites’ and allow Windows Phone to do the rest!
