Features and improvement ideas

how is this not a feature yet. so basic, nothing to do with FB API as other schedulers can do it.

Hootsuite and AgoraPulse both have the ability to tag facebook posts, this is an important feature

You are able to tag a Facebook busines page in Hootsuite. Why not Later? Currently using trial of Later and was considering moving from Hootsuite to Later, but now not sure. This feature is extremely important to us.

I see the ADMIN RESPONSE from 2019. Is that the last word on this over 2 years later? It's a royal PITA to go into every post by Later to re-tag everything. Might as well just post it manually!
I'm new to social tools like Later. Do they all have the same limitation with Facebook???

Once again another limitation with Later. The point of any social media management app is to create efficient workflows. We need the ability to correctly identify (autofind/fill) another social account for tagging AND the ability to move it around on the photo so they don't overlap.

This feature is really needed, especially for a company which has a lot of partners to tag in posts. Is there any way to tag either with the @ sign or by using the page ID in square brackets which sometimes shows up when you tag within Facebook?

I would just like to add to the comments about moving from hootsuite and not being able to do half the stuff you could there. Sure they reduced the free posts to nearly nothing but at least you could draft a post and tag a page. Super standard in the world of scheduling.

I'm trying to move over from Hootsuite - even they have tagging ability for Facebook and Twitter. I can't use your platform if I can't tag people - 'you have reduced the value for me in moving to your platform.'

We beg you - get this added. Other posting services offer facebook tagging... it's essential to help streamline workflow!

Would love to see this feature implented somehow!

I can't believe I just bought a Later subscription only to find out this basic function is not there. This makes the service useless to me.
I switched from Sendible and it had NO problem tagging to Facebook. Why can they do it and you can't?

Jumping in on this thread, please add this function. We just moved to later since we thought it might solve a lot of problems we had with another platform, only to find this basic functionality for tagging another business missing.

Please add this. It is silly to have to manually post on Facebook in order to add @mentions if I am using Later. Makes it unnecessary for me to use Later then.

PLEASE update this feature. Other platforms allow you to do this, out performing Later.

Pretty much everything we post for our organization on FB tags another business page. Not having this function does defeat the purpose of a service like Later.

For this very reason I just cancelled my later subscription.

I have clients that have specifically asked for me to tag other businesses on facebook up to 5 times per week. Not having this feature defeats the purpose of auto publishing to facebook for me... I just have to turn around and tag them myself anyway I might as well post it myself. Huge disappointment for Later.

I’m definitely going for Buffer pro due to this flaw..

I switched from buffer not realizing this was an issue. The admin response doesn't justify not adding this feature especially if it's being asked for STILL 3 years from this post. It makes you wonder if admins are actually paying attention to what their users are saying they need. Disappointed honestly

+1, this is an essential feature. 2020 onwards is about micro-niche and cross-collaboration. It feels “previous level” going into Facebook and editing posts after they have gone live.
