Correct preposition?
She goggled at photos in/on/from my phone.
Which is correct, in or on or from?
Top answer
"On" or "in" would be correct in most contexts. I would probably go with "on" here. "In" would be for if they're looking deep into the phone and thoroughly checking all of the photos, particularly if they're hidden, while "on" would be for someone just casually looking through the phone.
