How do I tag people in my photo or video on Instagram?
There are two ways to tag people in a photo or video you share on Instagram. Keep in mind that you can't tag people in someone else's photo or video.

To tag someone before sharing a photo or video:
Instagram app for Android and iPhone- After you've selected a photo or video to share, tap

Tagging people after sharing a photo or video
To tag someone in a photo or video you've already shared:

(Android) or
(iPhone) in the top right.
- Tap Edit.
