Now that we have that out of the way, let us get back to the point. If you are like me, you do a lot of shopping online lately. You might even be the person in the family who is asked what product they should be buying. This happens often in my family, especially about tech gadgets that they might need. Always happy to help my family out by giving suggestions on what to buy. I find it easier to find the item on Amazon and share the link with them in a text message or by email on my computer. This is easier to do than you would think. In this article, I want to show you how you can share those cool items with your friends and family by either copying the link for emailing or texting or any other paste-able location. This will give you step-by-step instructions. Now get out those devices and computers because I’m showing you how to do this on the mobile app and on Amazon.com.

How To Share Amazon Product Link

First, I will show you how to do this on Amazon.com.

Step 1: Open up that computer and head over to Amazon.com. Sign in to your account (it is not necessary to do this but I like to be signed in whenever working on Amazon).

Step 2: Once on your home screen, search for the product you wish to share.

Step 3: When you see the product, go to the description page by clicking on the image.

Step 4: On the product description page, look over to the top right. Above the price you should see Share. Amazon gives you a few options to share the product:

  • Email
  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Pinterest

You can choose any of these but for this article, I will choose the email link. Click it.

Step 5: On my computer, it brings up my email accounts from which to choose the one I want to use. Choose one and it will add the link and description to the body of the email. Then all you have to do is email the person you want to share with.

Step 5.1: Another option that is not given in the choices is to copy the link and paste it into a message. To do this, highlight the URL, right-click it, then choose Copy. Now paste it into a message or wherever you want to share it. Done.

How To Share Amazon Product Link From App

Here I will show you how to do this in the Amazon app using my Android phone.

Step 1: Find the app icon and Tap on it.

Step 2: Once in the app, you can search for the item using the search box at the top. The product I’m going to share is already on my home page under Explore More. Either way, once you find the item Tap it to go to the description screen.

Step 3: Now that we are on the product description screen, you should see the Share icon at the top right of the image. Tap it.

Step 4: After you Tap this, it will give you all the choices on how to share it. I want to copy the link for this so look down the list to find Copy to Clipboard. Tap it.

Step 5: I’m going to show you how you can Text it. Find the person you wish to send it to. On the Message line in the texting app, hold your finger down for a second and release. This will give you a menu. Tap on Paste and you are done.

Now you know how to share those cool products from Amazon on both the website and your mobile device. Time to find those cool items and share them.
