"With the launch of a new History tab that collects your bookmarks, likes, videos, and articles all in one place for easy access. Initially available on iOS, X head of product, Nikitia Bier, describes the new resource as a better way to keep track of all your favorite content and return to things you want to finish reading or watching later."
"The new page separates your saved content into four tabs - bookmarks, likes, videos, and articles - making it easy to dive back in at any time. While bookmarks and likes are intentional saves, the videos and articles tabs will be populated based on what you watch or read on X. The History section remains private to you, Bier's announcement notes."
"The addition makes X feel a bit more like a web browser, where users can return to things they've previously viewed, even if they didn't explicitly click a button to save the content. It consolidates features that were previously found in different places within the app, with bookmarks housed in the main menu and likes buried away as a tab on your user profile."
"The move could also encourage greater use of X's long-form article format, which the company has been positioning as a way for businesses and creators to share updates that go beyond the platform's standard post length of 280 characters. X users track the articles they find as they scroll, creating a personalized news reader for themselves within the app."
X adds a History tab that gathers bookmarks, likes, videos, and articles into one private place for later access. The Bookmarks button in the mobile app is renamed History and opens a page with four tabs. Bookmarks and likes are intentional saves, while videos and articles are filled automatically based on what users watch or read on X. The feature makes X more like a web browser by letting users return to previously viewed content without manually saving it. It also supports long-form article use by tracking articles as users scroll, creating a personalized news reader. The change aims to attract publishers and creators to write directly on X as referral traffic declines from other platforms.
