Amazon has an incredible selection of products, many of which are very similar to one another. So if you are discussing something with someone, then you may be looking for a way to share that product through a text or email to make sure you are both discussing the same item.
The Amazon app makes it very easy to shop or save items for later, but it can be difficult to share a link to a product if you haven’t done it before. Our guide below will walk you through the steps required to share a link to an Amazon product from the Amazon app on your iPhone.
You can send an Amazon link by opening the app, finding a product to share, tapping the Share icon on the product image, then choosing a sharing option.
