How to Access the SharePoint Start Page

SharePoint Start Page

The SharePoint Start Page can be accessed from anywhere within SharePoint by selecting the Home button:

The Recent section contains SharePoint sites that you have visited recently, and allows quick access back to them. To the right of a SharePoint’s name in Recent, you can select the Star icon to favorite a SharePoint and add it to the Following tab (if no SharePoint sites are starred, the Following tab will not appear.) You can select the Star again to unfollow a site.

In the center of the page, there is the News from sites section. This section contains news updates from any sites you are following or have visited. Selecting the Ribbon icon on the bottom left of a news post will add the post to the Saved for later section, so you can view the post at a future date (if no news posts have been saved, the Saved for later section will not appear).

Finally, the Frequent sites section contains SharePoint sites you visit frequently. This section also allows you to Star SharePoint sites to add them to the Following Section.
