To leave feedback on a Facebook Page, open its Reviews tab, choose Yes or No, then write your notes and post.
Here’s a clean, step-by-step playbook for posting feedback that shows up on a Page’s Reviews tab. You’ll see what button to tap, where the text box lives, and how to fix issues when the option doesn’t appear. Screens move a bit over time, but the core path below stays the same across desktop and phone.
Leave A Recommendation On A Facebook Page: Step-By-Step
On Phone (iPhone Or Android)
- Open Facebook and search for the business Page.
- On the Page, find and tap Reviews under the cover photo. If you don’t see it, tap More and look for Reviews.
- Tap Yes to recommend or No if you don’t.
- Write your notes and, if helpful, add a photo. Set the audience if needed, then tap Share to post.
Meta documents this path for the mobile app: go to a Page, tap Reviews, choose Yes or No, write, then share. You can read the official steps in the Facebook Help Center pages linked later in this guide.
On Desktop (Web Browser)
- Log in on a computer and open the business Page.
- In the left menu, click Reviews. If it’s hidden under More, open that menu first.
- Select Yes or No.
- Type your notes and click Post. You can attach a photo and add tags that describe the visit, when available.
What Your Post Shows
Your post appears in the Page’s Reviews area and can surface to friends through recommendations. It’s tied to your profile. If you included photos or tags, those display with the text.
Quick Paths By Device And Entry Point
| Device | Where To Tap Or Click | What You’ll See |
|---|---|---|
| iPhone / Android | Page → Reviews → Yes/No | Text box, photo add-on, audience picker |
| Desktop | Page left menu → Reviews | Yes/No choice, text box, optional tags |
| Shared Link | Direct URL to Reviews section | Yes/No prompt, then text box |
What Counts As A Helpful Recommendation
A clear note beats a long story. Mention the service you used, the staff you met, timing, and how the result matched your expectations. Add a photo if it helps other shoppers. Keep it fair and avoid private info about other people.
- Be specific: service name, item, date or time window.
- Add context: what you asked for and what you got.
- Share proof: one photo can answer many questions.
- Stay civil: no personal contact info or claims you can’t back up.
Where Reviews Live On A Page
Pages show a dedicated Reviews tab when the owner has that section turned on. Your note appears there and may surface to friends. If the business has switched the section off, the tab won’t appear for anyone. That setting is controlled by the Page, not by your account.
Why You Might Not See The Option
Common Reasons
- The Page turned off the Reviews section. Owners can hide or disable that tab with their settings. In that case, you won’t see Reviews on the Page.
- You’re in a spot of the app without the Reviews link. On mobile, look under More. On desktop, check the left menu.
- Temporary account or network issues. Sign out and back in, update the app, or try a different device.
Fast Fixes
- Search again and open the Page from the main search results, not from a saved link.
- Check the More menu on mobile for the hidden Reviews entry.
- Switch devices. If the phone app looks stuck, try desktop or a different phone.
- If the Page removed its Reviews tab, you can still post general feedback on your own timeline and tag the business profile, but that’s not the same as a formal recommendation on their Reviews tab.
Official Rules And Where To Read Them
Meta’s help pages outline the basic path: go to a business Page, open Reviews, pick Yes or No, write, and post. See the mobile help article “Go to the Page and tap Reviews”. There’s also a direct help note about how to recommend a business. Report content that breaks rules from the Reviews area using the report link covered in this help page.
Tips To Write Clear, Fair Feedback
Make It Useful For Shoppers
- Lead with the service or item. “Brake pad replacement,” “custom cake,” “two-bedroom clean.”
- Include outcome details. price, timing, aftercare, return process, or staff name if that helps.
- Add one photo that supports the claim you’re making.
Keep It Within Platform Rules
Skip personal data, private messages, or screenshots of other customers. If your note mentions a dispute, stick to what you saw and did, not rumors. If you see abusive content in the Reviews feed, use the report link in that item to flag it to Meta.
Finding The Reviews Tab Fast
On mobile, the Reviews tab often sits below the cover photo. When it’s not there, it moves under More. On desktop, look at the left column. If you still can’t spot it, the Page may have chosen a template that hides the tab or turned it off.
How Business Owners Can Make Reviews Visible
This guide is written for people posting feedback, but owners sometimes read it too. If you own the Page and you want visitors to post, turn on the Reviews section in your Page settings. Templates and tabs vary, but the switch lives in the same general area where you manage sections and tabs.
Privacy, Audience, And Edits
When you post, you can set an audience for the item. Your friends may see it, and the Page’s Reviews area will display it based on the Page’s settings and Meta’s rules. If you made a typo, open your activity log, find the recommendation, and edit it. If you changed your mind, you can delete it from the same place.
Desktop Vs. Mobile: What’s Different
Button labels and placement vary a bit. Mobile shows large buttons and an audience picker right above the text box. Desktop keeps those controls near the composer. The posting flow is the same: open the Page → Reviews → Yes/No → write → post.
When Your Post Doesn’t Appear
Give it a minute, then refresh. If it still doesn’t show, the Page owner might be filtering content with Page-level tools, or your post could be queued for a check based on platform rules. Edits or deletions you make in your activity log also sync to the Page feed.
Troubleshooting Checklist
| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| No Reviews tab on the Page | Owner disabled the section or the layout hides it | Use More menu; if missing for all, the owner turned it off |
| Can’t tap Yes/No | App glitch or outdated app | Force-quit, update, or try desktop |
| Post vanishes after refresh | Owner removed it or platform flagged it | Rewrite without personal data; report issues if needed |
| Photo won’t attach | File type/size or network issue | Resize and retry on Wi-Fi |
| Only friends can see it | Audience set to Friends | Edit the audience or share a public version |
Simple Template You Can Copy
Short beats dense. Fill in the blanks and post.
Service used: ____________________ Visit date/time: __________________ What went well: ___________________ What could improve: _______________ Would I return? Yes / No Photo: [attach one clear photo]
Responsible Posting And Reporting
Stick to your own visit. If someone posts hate or spam in the Reviews feed, report it from that item’s menu. The Help Center page on reporting recommendations explains the steps and links to the rules that apply to this space.

FAQ-Style Notes (No Extra Questions Needed)
Can I Edit Or Delete My Post Later?
Yes. Open your activity log, find the item, and use the menu to edit or remove it.
Can I Leave Feedback If The Reviews Tab Is Hidden?
You can write a regular post and tag the business, but that won’t land in the Reviews section. Only the owner can re-enable that tab.
Should I Post Photos?
One clear photo helps shoppers a lot. Keep faces and private info out of frame unless you have consent.
