Facebook has introduced its newest feature that allows users to save pages from their news feed for later viewing.

The Save button is a bookmarking tool that can easily save content such as links, pages, videos and articles so that users can check them out at their convenience.

It will appear in a few days on Facebook for both web and iOS and Android users.

The Save button came into existence because many users don't have enough time to scroll through their news feed. Facebook thought of a solution to encourage users to share and access more content for their later perusal.

All saved items are private but users can share them with their friends. Facebook will also send out reminders about the saved items to users that will show up on their news feeds.

The Save button can be accessed through a dropdown button at the upper right corner of any post. Saved items will be organized in categories and can be found near the Like button.

Users can view all their saved content or arrange them by catgeory on the left sidebar menu. For its mobile version, Facebook will introduce the Save button through a 'More' tab where all saved content is organized.

Before the Save button, users pseudo-bookmarked their favorite content by 'liking' them on Facebook and viewing them on their activity log. 

With hundreds of posts on their news feeds daily, users usually don't have the time to explore and read everything in one sitting.

This bookmarking tool can be compared to other bookmarking sites such as Pocket and Pinterest. Unfortunately, Facebook's saved content cannot be accessed offline.

All saved items are also viewed as regular posts on Facebook where a saved item has its own privacy settings and can be liked, shared, and archived .
