Where your LinkedIn saved posts actually live.

LinkedIn hides saved posts in a different place on desktop and mobile, and moves the entry point often enough that guides go stale. Here is the current path on both, the direct link that skips the hunting, and what to do once the list gets long.

On desktop

  1. Open your LinkedIn home feed.
  2. In the left sidebar, under your profile card, click My Items. On shorter windows it sits below the fold, so scroll the sidebar if you don't see it.
  3. Open the Posts tab. Saved articles have their own tab next to it.

Or skip all of that: linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts goes straight there. Worth bookmarking, which is its own small joke.

One thing that trips people up: the sidebar only appears on the feed. If you're on a company page, your notifications, or a search results screen, there's no My Items link to find.

On the mobile app

  1. Tap your profile photo in the top left to open the slide-out menu.
  2. Tap Saved posts. It sits below the other My Items entries.

Same list as desktop, same account. If a save is missing on one and present on the other, it's a sync or caching issue rather than a deletion.

Saving a post in the first place

Tap the three-dot menu in the top right of any post and choose Save. Nothing is announced. Saves are private, the author isn't told, and there's no public list of what you've kept.

Saved jobs are in the same place

My Items holds three separate lists, and people looking for one often land on another. On desktop the tabs sit side by side: Posts, Jobs, and saved articles. linkedin.com/my-items/saved-jobs goes straight to saved jobs.

In the mobile app it's the same route — profile photo, then the My Items entries — with Saved jobs as its own row next to Saved posts. Like saved posts, the list is private: applying is visible to the employer, saving is not.

One practical difference: a saved job disappears when the posting is closed or taken down, and there is no archive of it. If a role matters to you, keep the details somewhere of your own before the listing expires.

Why saved posts seem to disappear

The real problem is what happens at a few hundred saves

Finding the screen is the easy part. The list itself is reverse-chronological with no search box, no tags, and no folders. Which means the useful lifetime of a LinkedIn save is roughly a week: after that you can't get back to it unless you happen to remember roughly when you saved it and are willing to scroll.

There's also no export. Saved posts aren't in the LinkedIn data archive, so there's no supported way to keep your own copy of what you've collected.

Making them findable

The fix is having the saves somewhere you can actually search. Zihin pulls your LinkedIn saved posts into your own library through your own logged-in browser session, where they're searchable by meaning rather than exact wording, auto-tagged into topics, and kept even after the original post comes down. Your X bookmarks and Chrome bookmarks land in the same library, so there's one place to look instead of three.
