OK, thanks, Billy. Obviously, even though I heard VoiceOver say bookmarks when I saved my page previously, it went into favorites. I never saw any other boxes or anything. So I went into favorites and deleted the bookmark and re-saved it through the share choice. Again, VoiceOver send bookmarks and this time I actually got the choice. It does save to favorites by default. And it's not at all clear that you have a choice. That is, when you get to favorites, it says "selected" without any indication that if you double tap there you will have other choices. But double tapping does in fact give you other choices. So, in my opinion, it's not particularly well done, but it does work. Mary
