How to email someone a Facebook post

by | Jan 5, 2021

This is a super simple tip for when you want to send someone a Facebook post directly by email (or some other direct messaging service outside of Facebook). 

And it’s incredibly easy, but it’s not obvious, especially if you’re on a desktop.

On Desktop

  1. Find the post you want to email 
  2. Click on the date (it’s in small  text under your Page name)
  3. Copy the URL from the address bar in your browser
  4. Paste into an email and send!

On Mobile

  1. Find the post you want to email
  2. Click on the three dots on the top right of the post
  3. Tap the ‘Copy link’ option (usually the last option)
  4. Paste into an email and send!

On mobile you can also tap the ‘share’ option and then tap ‘more options’ and you should also see options for copying the link there, or choose the app you want to use to share the link.
