"Follow" missing from sites for External Users #EXT#

JennyP1815 yes, this is expected since those users do not get a User Profile which is what the Follow requires.

Thanks for that information. I was wondering why the follow feature was not available.
But I also thought that there is a connection between licenses and "Follow me" button. Not nice but understandable.
Another question. The OneDrive sync of SPO libraries is working across organizations. How can I open the SharePoint Online libraries as guest user on my smartphone / Tablet? If I can't follow them it isn't shown in the "Following sites" in OneDrive. If I search for the name of the library there are no results.
Is there any way to get access to it or only with an additional license?
