There so much happening on Facebook that it can feel a little overwhelming. What if you miss a post and you can’t find it later? Thankfully, Facebook has a bookmarking feature to help you keep track of things and save them for later.

Like Twitter, Facebook allows you to save things to access later. You can save shared links, posts, photos, videos, and even pages and events. These things can all be organized into “Collections.” Let’s do it.

How to Save Posts in Facebook

Saving something in Facebook works the same way whether you’re using a desktop browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux, mobile smartphone browser, iPhone, iPad, or Android device.

First, find any Facebook post you would like to save. Tap or click the three-dot icon in the corner of the post.

Here’s where things will start to look a little different depending on where you’re using Facebook.

In a desktop browser, a pop-up will ask you to choose a Collection to save to. Choose a Collection or make a new one, and click “Done” when finished.

With a mobile browser, the post will go straight to the default “Saved Items” section. After you tap “Save Post,” you’ll have the option to “Add to a Collection.”
