How to Find Saved Posts on LinkedIn

By Chris O'NeilSeptember 29, 20268 min read
On iPhone: LinkedIn → profile picture → Saved posts. Desktop: Saved Items → Saved posts and articles. No search inside the list.

Disclosure: this article is published by the team that builds Tote. Tote is included as one option. Every other app and platform mentioned is a third party we have no affiliation with.

Quick answer: on the LinkedIn iPhone app, saved posts live under your profile menu — not in the feed, and not under Jobs.

  1. Open the LinkedIn app.
  2. Tap your profile picture (top-left) to open the menu.
  3. Tap Saved posts.
  4. Scroll the list to find the post.

LinkedIn documents this path in its saved-posts help page.

Saved posts are private and tied to the account you are signed into. The rest of this guide covers how to save a post, how Saved differs from reactions and from saved jobs, the desktop path, why a save seems missing, and whether you can search the list.

Where LinkedIn saved posts live on iPhone

LinkedIn does not put a Saved tab in the bottom bar. Saves sit in the account menu behind your profile picture.

To open your saved posts:

  1. Open LinkedIn.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the top-left.
  3. Tap Saved posts.

You can also open linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts in Safari while signed in — same collection as the app.

Saves sync with your LinkedIn account, not the device. Open the same account on another phone or on the web and you should see the same list.

How to save a post on iPhone

Finding saves only helps if you know how they got there.

  1. Open a post in the LinkedIn feed (or open the post itself).
  2. Tap the More icon (⋯) on the upper right of the post.
  3. Tap Save.

LinkedIn usually shows a brief confirmation, sometimes with a shortcut to view saved posts. The author is not notified. Saves stay private.

You generally cannot save certain feed cards the same way — Help notes that recommended jobs, follow recommendations, work anniversary updates, and profile-change updates are not savable as feed posts. If Save is missing from the menu, that item may not support the feature.

Common mix-up: a reaction (Like, Celebrate, Insightful, and so on) is not a Save. Reactions show on the post. Saves go to Saved posts. If you “saved” something with a reaction only, it will not appear in Saved posts.

Saved posts vs reactions vs jobs vs articles

These feel interchangeable. They are not. That is why the item “isn’t there.”

Where each LinkedIn action actually lands
You did thisLook here
More → Save on a feed postSaved posts
Reacted (Like / Celebrate / etc.)The original post — not Saved posts
Saved a jobJobs → Job tracker → Saved (separate from feed saves)
Saved an article / long-form itemOften the same Saved posts and articles list (filter or scroll)
Newsletter or Learning bookmarkMay live under My items / Learning Saved — not always the feed Saved posts list

Saved posts is the find target for “where did I bookmark that LinkedIn post?”

Saved jobs is a different product surface. On iPhone: open Jobs → Job tracker → Saved. Do not dig through Saved posts looking for a job listing you bookmarked from Jobs.

LinkedIn does not offer Instagram-style Collections or folders for feed saved posts. One flat list. No tags. No topic buckets inside the native app.

Desktop / linkedin.com path

On a computer (or when the app menu is confusing):

  1. Go to linkedin.com and sign in.
  2. On the homepage left pane, click Saved Items (wording may say Saved items).
  3. Open Saved posts and articles.

Or go straight to linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts.

Same account, same saves as the iPhone app. Use the desktop list when you need a bigger screen to scroll a long pile.

Why a saved post seems missing

Work this checklist in order:

  1. Wrong menu. You are looking in the feed, Notifications, or Jobs. Open the profile picture menu → Saved posts.
  2. Wrong account. Switch accounts from the profile menu and open Saved posts again. Saves do not merge across accounts.
  3. Reacted, not saved. A reaction is not a Save. There is no “reacted posts” folder that replaces Saved posts.
  4. You saved a job, not a post. Check Jobs → Job tracker → Saved.
  5. Buried in a long scroll. There is no search inside Saved posts. Keep scrolling if the post is not near the top.
  6. Author deleted the post, or the account was closed / restricted. A save is a pointer to the original post, not a full copy. When the source goes away, the item can vanish or fail to open with little or no notice.
  7. App not updated. Update LinkedIn from the App Store, reopen it, and look for Saved posts. Or use the my-items/saved-posts URL in Safari.

Can you search saved posts?

No — not inside the Saved posts list. LinkedIn’s main search covers people, jobs, companies, and public content. It does not jump to “posts I saved that mention X.”

Practical options on iPhone:

  • Confirm profile picture → Saved posts on the right account.
  • Scroll the list.
  • Remember an approximate date, author, or company and scan.
  • Open the same account on desktop if the list is huge.
  • Search LinkedIn publicly for a phrase only to confirm the post still exists — then check whether your Saved list still points to it.

There are no native folders or Collections for feed saves. If your real goal is “find this by topic weeks later across apps,” that is outside what LinkedIn’s Saved posts list does. Use native first; optional share-sheet tools come after.

After native: share important LinkedIn finds to Tote

Native Saved posts are the right first answer. Use profile picture → Saved posts.

When a post matters for later — a hiring tip, a framework, a company note, a thread you will need by topic — share it to Tote from the iPhone share sheet when you save it. Tote extracts useful context so you can find the post by what it was about, across apps. Tote does not download LinkedIn media files and does not replace LinkedIn Saved posts.

Share from LinkedIn

  1. Open the post in LinkedIn.
  2. Tap Send, then Share via.
  3. Choose Tote from the iPhone share sheet.

You can still Save inside LinkedIn. The share step is extra for the handful of posts you must retrieve by topic weeks later.

What you get

  • Details from the post become searchable in Tote.
  • LinkedIn saves sit next to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Reddit, X, Safari, and other share-sheet saves.

When native Saved posts are enough

When to use LinkedIn Saved posts versus Tote
SituationUse
Find a saved LinkedIn postProfile picture → Saved posts
Casual saves you will revisit soonNative Saved posts
Long list, no in-list searchScroll; or open desktop My items
Saved a job, not a feed postJobs → Job tracker → Saved
Reacted but did not SaveOriginal post — not Saved posts
Need it by topic across apps laterShare important posts to Tote (after native)

Keep using LinkedIn Saved posts for day-to-day bookmarks. That is where the platform stores them. Tote is optional, after that — same pattern as Facebook Saved, X bookmarks, TikTok favorites, Instagram Saved Reels, and Reddit saved posts.

FAQ

Where are my saved posts on LinkedIn on iPhone?

Open the LinkedIn app → tap your profile picture → tap Saved posts. Confirm you are on the correct account.

How do I access saved posts on LinkedIn?

Same path: profile picture → Saved posts. On desktop, use left-pane Saved Items → Saved posts and articles, or open linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts.

Where is LinkedIn My items?

On desktop, Saved Items appears on the LinkedIn homepage. Open it, then choose Saved posts and articles. On iPhone, tap your profile picture, then Saved posts.

Can I search my LinkedIn saved posts?

Not inside the Saved posts list. Main LinkedIn search does not filter to “only what I saved.” Scroll the list, or use a larger screen on desktop.

Why did a saved LinkedIn post disappear?

Common causes: wrong account, you reacted instead of saving, you saved a job (check Job tracker), the post is buried in a long unsearchable list, or the author deleted the post / the account was restricted. A save is a pointer, not a full offline copy.

How do I find saved jobs on LinkedIn (not posts)?

That is a different list. On iPhone: tap Jobs → Job tracker → Saved. Do not expect job bookmarks to appear under Saved posts.

Does LinkedIn have Collections or folders for saved posts?

No. Unlike Instagram Collections, LinkedIn feed saves are one flat list with no native folders or tags for posts.
