How to Find Your Saved Posts on LinkedIn (2026)
LinkedIn buries saved posts behind an easy-to-miss sidebar link, then gives you a flat list you can't search. Here's where your saves actually are, how to get to them on desktop and mobile, and what to do when you need to find a specific post fast.
Short answer: Saved LinkedIn posts are at My Items in the left sidebar on desktop, or Profile → Saved Posts and Articles on mobile. There's no search inside, just a reverse-chronological list. To find a specific saved post, you'll need to scroll or use a third-party tool.
Where is the saved posts section on LinkedIn?
LinkedIn calls saved content "My Items" on desktop and "Saved Posts and Articles" on mobile. They're the same list, just labeled differently depending on where you access them.
On desktop:
- Go to your LinkedIn feed.
- Look at the left sidebar, scroll down slightly below your profile card.
- Click My Items.
- Your saved posts and articles appear in a reverse-chronological list.
The fastest shortcut: bookmark linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts in your browser. It takes you there directly, skipping the sidebar navigation.
On mobile:
- Tap your profile photo in the top-left corner of the app.
- Scroll down in the panel that opens.
- Tap Saved Posts and Articles.
The mobile path has moved around across LinkedIn app versions. If you don't see "Saved Posts and Articles," update the app, or use the desktop shortcut URL on mobile browser.
How do I search my saved LinkedIn posts?
You can't, at least not natively. LinkedIn's saved posts view gives you a flat list with no search bar, no filters, no tags, and no folders. The only navigation is two tabs: Posts and Articles.
If you have more than 20–30 saves, finding a specific post is a scrolling exercise. LinkedIn shows no preview of post content in the list, just the author's name, a title (if the post has one), and a thumbnail. If you saved a post because of something specific that was said in it, you probably won't recognize it visually.
The workaround most people use: remember the author's name and visit their profile to scroll through their posts until you find it. That usually works if you remember who wrote it.

Do people know if you save their LinkedIn post?
No. LinkedIn saves are completely private. Post creators can see reactions, comments, and shares in their analytics, but the save count is not shown to them. There's no "saved by" list accessible to creators. Your saves are invisible to everyone except you.
This is true even for posts from people you follow or are connected with. Saving is completely silent.
Why LinkedIn's save feature doesn't really work for research
LinkedIn's save feature was designed for quick "I'll read this later" use, not for building a research library or coming back to posts weeks later. The flat chronological list without search reflects that.
In practice, people use it as a reading queue and drain it within a day or two. Anything that sits in My Items for more than a week tends to get forgotten, there's no visual difference between a saved post from yesterday and one from six months ago.
If you use LinkedIn to track industry thinking, competitor moves, or specific insights you want to reference later, the native save function doesn't hold up. For that kind of library, TapFold lets you share posts directly from the LinkedIn mobile app. Each save is indexed with its full text so you can search it later by topic, keyword, or concept.
How to actually keep LinkedIn posts you care about
Two practical approaches depending on your use case:
- LinkedIn's native My Items, for short-term reading queues. Save posts you plan to read within a day or two. Clear them after reading. Works fine as a temporary buffer.
- Share to a save library, for anything you'll want to find later. On LinkedIn mobile, tap the share icon on any post and share to TapFold. The post content is extracted and indexed. Search "performance marketing" two months from now and the post surfaces.
For TikTok saves that follow the same pattern, see how to find your saved TikToks. The retrieval problem is identical across platforms.

The simplest fix
Bookmark linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts for fast access. And for anything you'll want to find by topic rather than by scrolling, share to a library that indexes the content.
