Save for Later - within Document Libraries
I know that two weeks ago, I was able to go to a Document Library and use an icon and/or select "Save for Later" in a menu to indicate documents that would then show up if you went to OneDrive. This was a feature that was going to solve a huge amount of issues for end users who do not want to use SharePoint and continue to use network drives.
However, that option has appeared to disappear across all of my SharePoint Online Sites. The only place I see a "save for later" is on pages from News Posts, which is not going to help.
I've found posts about this feature (https://office365itpros.com/2019/12/11/save-for-later-sharepoint-onedrive/), but I haven't seen anything about this feature being removed from use or something needing to be required to turn it on.
What's going on with Save for Later on documents in Document Libraries and how do I get this back ASAP?

- This is so funny... Now in the new Office page in the quick access section, when you add an item as favorite (in the item menu) it will show in the "Save for later" web part. Oh, and this not the same thing as adding an item as favorite in Delve.... I think Microsoft should have "One" responsible to manage the concept of favorites, save for later, etc, etc... No suprise that user acceptance is a big challenge in M365...
- I noticed the same at our sites. Looks like the favorites feature is the new "Save for later"
Hello mhines did you ever raise a support ticket about this issue?
The saved for later icon isn't showing in our OneDrive or Document Libraries either and would like a solution.
Any information much appreciated.
RegardsSam Greatorex mhines , we are seeing the same behavior - new feature released in 2019 no longer visible in document libraries or OneDrives.
Going to open a ticket with Microsoft Support to see where this feature went.

Fab_Franz The save for later on ODB/doc lib feature is no longer available. Save for later is still provided as part of pages/news.
Thanks.
