How To Tag Someone On Instagram: The Ultimate Guide

Published

3 years ago

Instagram Stories is a terrific way to share brief photographs and videos throughout the day, and it’s even better now that you can tag and mention other users. Instagram has evolved significantly since its inception in October 2010. The basic concept of publishing photos and videos to the timeline hasn’t changed. Instagram, on the other hand, has progressed well beyond that. Instagram Reels, in-app purchasing, Facebook Messenger synchronized chatting, and more are now available.

Tagging is one of the tools you may use on Instagram to make it a more communal experience, as social media is intended to be “social.” When you tag someone on Instagram, they often receive a notice (the exception being when a private account tags someone who isn’t following them). Everything you need to know about tagging someone on Instagram is right here.
