How to Bookmark in the Chrome iPhone App

While search engines make finding your favorite sites very easy, it can be cumbersome to constantly be typing a search term into a browser to reach a particular page.

This is even worse on a phone, where typing is a little more difficult. But you can speed up the process of reaching a certain page by bookmarking it in the Chrome browser on your iPhone.

This creates a permanent link in the Bookmarks folder in the Chrome app so that you can visit that page without needing to remember the path that you previously used to reach it in the first place.

If you use Chrome on your computer then you might be looking for the bookmarks file so that you can edit it or back it up. Click here and see where that bookmarks file is located.
