Mmm...I'm aware of this option for pages, but not for documents...when can we expect this feature in documents? By the way, "following" a document and "save for later" is not the same idea
You are right. The gestures are not quite the same. We are intentional about introducing Save For Later. What about classic "following" documents experience do you like/expect ?
Today, you can Save for later documents from the SP mobile app. See this post. We are just rolling out Saving pages/news in the web. We will expand to more entry points and Save for later abilities over time (and based on customer feedback as well)
- Thank you all for the responses. That is correct, pages or news we can save for later but for Documents you have to rely on what Delve shows you either recent ones you have accessed or other files from other sites/locations that you may have interest. The use case we keep hearing is what we had on classic pages. You are in a SharePoint Site reviewing document libraries and you like in picking from there files that you like to follow. Any thoughts on when following people may be part of the road map? Thanks!

DC_Padur The use case is that , imagine a user is working on multiple sites , and multiple documents like Sales , Marketing.
He just want to fav then document , so that it is available from any device and he can work on it later.
Its like saving time from finding the document.
