How to Use Google Saved’s Features to Bookmark Content

January 31, 2025

Google Chrome takes the idea of a bookmark feature further than most other browsers. Instead of simply saving certain web pages for repeated viewing, Google Saved (a feature previously known as Google Collections) gives you a place to keep track of pages you want to return to later. But it’s more than just a simple bookmark; let’s take a closer look at Google Saved and how it works.

How You Can Use Google Saved

Google Saved lets you put together a collection of content, and it primarily works through synchronization with your Google account.

  • During a Google Search, you can use the three-dot menu next to each result to Save the result in an additional sidebar menu.
  • In Google Images, you can select an image and use the three-dot menu at the top-right corner that gives you the option to Save.
  • Google Maps lets you save locations by clicking on a landmark and selecting the Save option from the panel.
  • In Google TV, you can search for a show or film and add it to your saved options. From the web, you can use the Want to watch button. From the TV interface, you can select Add to watchlist.

After you’ve curated a list of your saved items, you can create or edit collections. You can then use the Google Saved search function to find the ones you want. You’ll see some of them by default, including the All saved items option.

It’s easy to Create collections, Add items from the button, move them, reorder them, or remove them entirely through the three-dot menu. You can also Select items to move or delete all at once. This feature also makes it easy to Share your collections through the dedicated button.

To access Google Saved, you can use this link: google.com/interests/saved. Try it out and see what you think!

Connecting Google Search to Gemini is Simple (But May Not be Advisable)
Google has implemented Gemini, its latest AI model, into its free software strategy. Previously, it was only available to those on the Advanced plan, a $20/month service. The model can reference a user’s Search queries and other applications to personalize the user’s results, but is this a good thing, or even something you want in the first place?
