How do I allow Salve access to my photos and/or files?
In order to send your clinic attachments via messages, Salve needs access to your files and/or photo library depending on what kind of file you want to send. Salve will prompt you for access in-app the first time you try to attach a picture or document to a message, but if you accidentally deny access you can turn it on via your device's settings.
