Whatsapp groups allow users to stay connected with friends, family, and colleagues. However, as these groups grow larger, it can become increasingly challenging to ensure that everyone sees important messages. Fortunately, Whatsapp provides a convenient feature allowing you to tag group members, ensuring your message gets the attention it deserves.
This article discusses what tagging means, how to tag a single group member and how to tag everyone on Whatsapp in simple steps.
What does tagging mean on WhatsApp?
Tagging is a handy tool on Whatsapp that lets you mention a particular person or group in a message so they’re more likely to notice and reply. When you tag someone, they get a notification, even if they’ve muted the chat. This is handy to ensure someone sees a message or needs to talk directly to someone in a group chat.

How to tag a single user on WhatsApp?
Tagging a single user on Whatsapp is a straightforward process, and here are the steps to do that:
- Open the group where you want to tag the user and type @ in the message box; a list of group members will appear.
- Tap on the user name you want to tag, and the user will be tagged. After that, you can continue typing your message.
How to tag everyone in the WhatsApp group?
Earlier, Whatsapp allowed users to tag everyone by typing @everyone, but it no longer works. So you have to tag all the users one by one. Here’s how to it:
- Open the group where you want to tag the user and type @ in the message box, a list of group members will appear.
- Tap on the name of the user you want to tag and the user will be tagged after that you can continue typing your message.
- Type @ again in the message box, and a list of group members appears.
- Tap on the user’s name to tag them, and then repeat the process until you have tagged everyone.
