How to find and copy a Facebook URL
Finding a URL on a web browser is easy, but it isn’t quite as straightforward in the Facebook mobile app. It’s not difficult by any means, but it isn’t sitting right there at the top of the screen like it is when you’re using your PC. The method also differs slightly depending on what type of page you’re trying to find the URL for. To that end, here’s a quick guide on how to find a Facebook URL.
QUICK ANSWER
Depending on which type of Facebook URL you're trying to find, you go to the profile page and tap Settings, Share, More, or Invite. From there, you'll either be able to see the button to copy the link or have to press Show link or Share group to find it. Read on for specific guides on how to find the URL for each type of profile.
