      I checked on both Android smartphones and iPhones. They do appear after you report that comment.

      Please watch the video that I’ve attached with the post now. Let me know if it works.

      Thanks.

    There is no “remove tag” option, as stated in the instructions, either on mobile or on desktop.

      Hi Bill,

      Are you using an iPhone or Android smartphone? I checked both on Android and iPhone. It works like a charm.

      The “Remove tag” option will only appear after you report that comment. Facebook will let you remove yourself from the comment afterward.

      Let me know if you still have any questions.

      Hi Mary,

      Yes, this is the updated version of Facebook.

      I tried yesterday, and it worked. You’ve to click and hold on your name and report the comment. It works on both Android, iOS, and also on Facebook web/desktop. Choose Spam, and then you’ll see the option to remove the tag.

      I will also try to add steps to remove the comment tag from Facebook web/desktop this week, Insha Allah.

      When you get to the screen that requires you to select an issue, such as harassment or bullying, select one of those options. Then scroll down and choose ” I don’t know. I’d like to see other steps I can take.” From there, you can block the person, and/or untag yourself.

    Note that in the last couple of weeks (April 2021) this option is no longer available in the Report this Comment menu. Have you worked out how we now remove a tag?

      Hi Kaz,

      The option is still working for me.

      Just long-press the comment and report the comment as spam. Facebook will show you the option to remove the comment tag.

    Works, when you click report SPAM, then you get an option to remove tag. I also could not find it immediately.

    I didn’t really want to report the comment as spam, since it wasn’t selling anything, but it seems to have been necessary in order to untag myself from the comment. Oh well …

    thanks for letting me know how to do it

      I understand, but it can be not very pleasant that you’re tagged somewhere you don’t want to be. Well, this works.

      You’re welcome, Almonius!
