Tagging members in a WhatsApp group can be a useful feature to get their attention or involve them in a specific conversation within the group. In WhatsApp, you can tag someone by using the "@" symbol followed by their name or number. Here’s how you can do it:
-
Open the WhatsApp Group: Launch WhatsApp and open the group chat where you want to tag someone.
-
Type the "@" Symbol: Start typing your message. When you want to tag someone, type the "@" symbol on your keyboard. The "@" symbol indicates that you want to mention or tag a group member.
-
Select the Member to Tag: After typing the "@" symbol, you will see a list of group members who are available to be tagged. WhatsApp will display suggestions based on the names or numbers of the members present in the group.
-
Choose the Member: Scroll through the list and select the member you want to tag by tapping on their name. WhatsApp will automatically insert their name into the message box.
-
Continue Typing or Send the Message: You can continue typing your message after mentioning the member’s name or directly send the message by tapping the send button.
-
Repeat the Process: If you want to tag multiple members in the same message, repeat steps 2 to 5 for each additional member.
Please note that when you mention or tag someone in a WhatsApp group, they will receive a notification. Keep in mind that excessive tagging can be annoying, so it’s essential to use this feature appropriately and only when necessary.
That’s it! You now know how to tag or mention someone in a WhatsApp group using the "@" symbol.
