Shotwell Automatically Starting

Question

How do I stop Shotwell from launching automatically when I charge my iPhone in my laptop?

The program doesn't work (it never detects photos), plus I can just transfer the photos from the iPhone file manually. So I don't need the program and it is really annoying that it starts up all the time. How to prevent that?

Thanks so much!

Go to System Settings -> Details -> Removable Media

and disable there Shotwell as a media handler program.

You can disable starting programs in all cases like I did.
