## 🏷️  **How to add the tag** <a href="#how-to-add-the-tag" id="how-to-add-the-tag"></a>

1. On a blank app page, create a tabs menu design (it can be any height).

&#x20;   2\. Create a 2nd-level container around the menu design.

&#x20;  3\. **Copy & paste** the tag into the layer name of the **top-level app page.**

&#x20;   4\. Link each menu item to the app page you want it to open.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure there are at least 2 menu items linked. If you only have one menu item linked, the tabs menu will not show.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Remember not to place the starting flow of the prototyping in the tab menu frame. Instead added in the page you want the user to land first. [Learn more ](https://docs.bravostudio.app/set-up-design/setting-up-your-design-file/app-navigation/setting-up-app-navigation-on-figma)
