Have you ever watched a compelling TED talk and wished you could save it to watch again later? With the TED app, saving your bookmarked videos is an easy process that enhances your experience. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to save TED videos on both iPad and Android tablets, and update you on the latest feature advancements.
Step-by-Step Guide to Saving TED Videos
Let's begin by exploring how to save your favorite TED videos for later viewing:
1. Open the TED App
Login to the TED app on your device, whether you have an iPad or an Android tablet. The app is available for download from the App Store for iOS users and the Google Play Store for Android users.
2. Browse or Search for Videos
Explore the TED talks by either browsing through the categories or using the search feature. Whether you are interested in technology, science, business, or personal development, the TED app offers a vast library of talks to choose from.
3. Bookmark the Video
Once you find a TED talk that captivates you, tap on it to open the video details. Look for the bookmark icon, which is often represented as a star or a heart. Tap on this icon to save the video to your bookmarks. This step ensures the video is saved locally on your device for offline viewing.
4. Access Your Bookmarks
To view your bookmarked videos, navigate to the main menu. This is usually accessible via a hamburger icon or your profile picture. From there, select the 'Bookmarks' or 'Saved' section to see your list of saved videos.
5. Watch or Manage Bookmarks
In the bookmarks section, you can easily watch the saved videos or remove any video you no longer want to keep. This flexibility allows you to maintain an organized collection of talks that interest you the most.
