Another person who has an iNat account was with me when I made some of my observations. Is it possible to add this person as on observer so that she can view the observations when she signs in to her account? I have tried but am unable to figure out how to do it if it is possible.
Tag the second person in the observation description so they can get a notification that you’ve mentioned them, but the notification is only found on the website and not available on the apps.
No, this isn’t possible. But you may be interested in this feature request:

Alternatively you can both post the same organism as separate observations.

Yes. iNaturalist defines an observation as one person’s encounter with one organism. So if two people had encounters with the organism, iNaturalist defines that as two observations.
She could ‘follow’ you or ‘follow’ the observations in question. Then she will get a notification when anything new happens to the observations.
