add bookmark to homescreen iphone

There used to be an option on the safari share function (icon that looks like download) to add a bookmark to the home screen. On my iphone8 (os 13.6.1) this option is missing. I have looked through the settings and cannot find an option to turn it on. My home screen is not full.


Has this feature been removed? Is there a way to turn it on again? I find it very useful.

If you hit the share icon on a webpage, it will show you recent contacts, and apps. If you swipe up from that screen (swipe up on the options - not on the webpage), you will see a few more options (shown below). Among these options should be the "Add to Home Screen" feature you are looking for. It seems they didn't remove it, they just hid it.
