Instagram: Mentions

How to mention an Instagram account in your post

Written by Karolina

Boost your social media marketing by mentioning other Instagram accounts in your posts! Type "@" and the account username in the Scheduler App when creating an Instagram post.

Note that, unlike other platforms, there won't be a list to choose from. Still, the mention becomes active once the post is live, so use the correct username. 💡

How to mention an Instagram account:

  • Open Instagram and search for the account you'd like to mention. Copy the account's username in your browser or mobile application.

  • When creating an Instagram post in the Scheduler app, type "@" and paste the copied username into the post caption.

⚠️ Please ensure the username is correct. In ZoomSphere, the text after the @ will turn blue regardless of whether it's correct.

  • When published, the mention will turn blue, indicating that the mention has been successful. ✔️

You can also 👉🏼 tag profiles in the image or 👉🏼 invite collaborators.
