Using the Mobile App
Open LinkedIn. This app icon looks like a white "in" on a blue background that you'll find on one of your Home screens, in the app drawer, or by searching. Log in if prompted.
Tap your profile icon. You'll see this in the upper left corner of your screen.
Tap View Profile (if prompted). You may get a slide-out menu when you tap your profile icon, so continue on to your profile by tapping View Profile. If, however, you are directed to your profile, you can skip this step.
Tap the edit icon Android 7 Edit next to the section you want to edit. The mobile app has limits to what you can edit, including your name, photo, headline, summary, experience, and education. If you want to edit something like recommendations, you'll need to use a web browser.
