Adding further, "Whether you’re treating yourself or shopping for loved ones, these updates unlock new ways to discover and connect with the brands and products that inspire you."
The new shopping collection area gives a feel of an online store and all the posts you have saved are arranged in rows you can easily go through the items you are looking to buy. The bookmark tool can be used to do that.
