How do I tag other people or Pages in a post? To tag someone in your post, start typing their name and then select their profile from the dropdown menu that appears (make sure to capitalize the first letter of their name). To tag a Page, type the “@” symbol and then start typing the Page’s name.

To tag someone in a Facebook post using the mobile app, start by launching the Facebook app on your device. At the top of your Newsfeed or Timeline, tap the “New Post” prompt to open a text box for composing your post. Begin typing the name of the person you want to tag; Facebook will suggest profiles as you type. Select the correct profile from the list, even if you use their nickname from their profile. After mentioning the person, tap “Post.” The person will receive a notification that they’ve been mentioned, and others can read the post as well.

Position the cursor where you want to mention an entity. Then, type the @ symbol followed by the entity’s name to tag it.
