The Bookmark button is at the bottom of the screen and resembles an open book.
3. On the Bookmarks page, you can see a list of all the saved bookmarks on the first tab (be sure the Bookmark tab is selected at the top of the screen). If you've organized some of your bookmarks into folders, you can tell the difference between bookmarks and folders by the icon to the left of the name.
