favoriting
Starring for later
Favoriting is marking something as a favorite, typically by clicking a heart or star icon on a website or app.
The action saves an item for easy access or signals approval: I've been favoriting tweets all morning, Try favoriting the listing so you don't lose it.
The term emerged with social media platforms that use "favorite" as both noun and verb.
