How to Add Web Pages to Safari Favorites on the iPhone or iPad:  Rita’s iDevice Advice for January 11, 2021

If you have favorite pages and sites that you visit frequently, it makes sense to add them to Favorites in the Safari browser. This way, you'll be able to go back to them with a few taps of a finger, rather than typing in the URL or searching the web every time you want to reference them. 
How to save Favorites in Safari, as well as how to find your Safari Favorites.

Note These instructions were written for sighted persons, who are not using voiceOver.  If you are using VoiceOver:  when the instructions say "Tap on an item", perform a one finger double tap.

How to Add Favorite Web Pages to Safari Favorites on Your iPhone & Find Them Later There are a few ways to save pages from the Safari browser for future reference. Note* When you bookmark a page on your iPhone or iPad, the page is automatically saved to Favorites.
	• Open the Safari app on your iPhone or iPad.
	• Navigate to the website or page you want to add to Favorites and tap the Share icon. 
	• Tap Add to Favorites.
	• You'll see the page or site in Favorites; tap Done.
	• To find your Favorites any time you need them, open the Safari app again, and tap the Book icon. 
	• Now, tap the website or page you'd like to visit from your Safari Favorites.
How to Save a Bookmark in Safari:
1.  Go to the web site in Safari, that you wish to bookmark.
2.  Once there, at the bottom of the iPhone screen, locate the “share” button and double tap it.
3.  Swipe through the choices until you locate “add bookmark” and double tap that.
4.  Now you will have the option of naming the bookmark, which you can do if it is not recognizable from what is already in the text field.
5.  When finished, locate the “save” button and double tap that.
Also, you can add the page to the bookmark to the home screen in the share menu.

Here is another way to add a bookmark in Safari Safari for iPhone and iPad is an incredibly capable mobile web browser despite its simple, straightforward user interface. It is the browser of choice on iOS, in large part because it is the one pre-installed, but very few people know everything you can do with Safari.
Much of Safari’s advanced functionality is hidden behind “long press gestures" that most people do not know exist.
Long press on the Show Bookmarks button:  which is a one finger double tap and hold gesture when running VoiceOver.
On Safari for iPhone and iPad, the normal way to add a bookmark for a webpage is to press the Share button and scroll through the activity pop-up to select the Add Bookmark option. Using a long-press, you can do the same thing more quickly.
Long-press on the Show Bookmarks button (which tapping on normally takes you to view your bookmarks) and a new action menu appears. The modal features options to Add Bookmark or Add to Reading List. Saving to Reading List is immediate, whilst tapping the bookmark option will open the usual options view to confirm the name and Favorites folder location.
