Facebook launches ‘Save’ button for bookmarking News Feed posts


By on 11:25

In one of those countless new Facebook features which its makers keep pouring in one by one, there is ‘Save’ which is nothing but the ability to bookmark posts for reading later. It has been introduced as a cross-platform feature, so it will work on smartphones as well as the desktop version of the site.

Using Facebook can get a bit frustrating at times when you want to perhaps click on a video, but which you notice is longer than 10 minutes and you don’t have enough time to see. But there’s also the chance that if you don’t watch it then and there, it might not appear in your News Feed again at all.

‘Save’ is meant for addressing this discomfort, enabling you to just mark posts with a single tap or click and access them later on. With it, you can save items links, places, movies, TV as well as music. And like we said, this feature works in a cross-platform manner, so you can save it on the desktop version and access it through the Android and iOS apps of the social network as well.

In case you’re likely to forget about your saved posts, Facebook has that covered too. The site will at times issue reminders about those posts, complete with links to them, so you don’t even have to enter the ‘Save’ section in order to access them.

Facebook has revealed that the new ‘Save’ function will be rolled out to everyone using the Android, iOS and desktop versions of the site over the next few days.
