Sharing Album via Google+ Photos issues

So I'm trying to share albums that are on Google Photos via email. The email sends them a link, however the user gets a "You do not have permission to view this album".

They can either request permission or I have to bring up the sharing options in a browser to add them and/or create a link.

Is there a way to create a link from our phones or can this only be done via a browser? I would think if you share an album on your phone via email with a link that it would work instantly.
 
If you want to share one photo in an unlisted album, don't copy the URL line in your browser. This will give the recipient access to the whole album. Instead, do this:
1.On the My Photos page, click your album.
2.Click the individual photo you'd like to link to.
3.Copy the URL (Ctrl-C) located in the 'Link' field on the right-hand side.
4.Paste the URL in an email or IM (Ctrl-V).

You are way off on what I was asking.
