There is no favorites option for a report when in an App. The star appears next to reports in the App workspace, and also in the recent tab, however users will often not have access to the App workspace so this is not sufficient.

RE: Cannot Favorite a report from within an App
This is crucial for large businesses who reserve workspace access for a subset of users who are report authors or workspace administrators. The large number of report consumers in the company access the data through apps. They may need a handful of reports from different apps but don't use the others. The fact that they cannot create a favorites list for just those few reports is resulting in lack of adoption of Power BI as a reporting solution.

Our app has many dashboards and reports. Users only need certain ones. With a content pack, they could favorite the ones they need. We need the same capability in apps.
RE: Cannot Favorite a report from within an App
Agree with all comments. This would be extremely helpful. Mark an app as a favorite is only marginally useful, if you happen to have dozens of apps. But being able to mark a report as a favorite is essential, as it's easy to have multiple reports across multiple apps that you want to find easily. Please fix!
RE: Cannot Favorite a report from within an App
If you mark a particular App as a favourite you expect it to appear in the Favourites section. This does not happen and needs to be fixed. There is no point adding 'App' as a favourite because that is available from the menu.

This is needed.

Need this
RE: Cannot Favorite a report from within an App
This feature would be a game changer for users who are largely consumers of app content and use reports from various apps and dashboards from others and just want all the content they use on their favorites so they don't have to remember which app they got them from.

In response to Stuart Cary's redirect to voting on this....the redirect is not accurate. This idea above is specific to "within" the "App". You can favorite reports within a workspace but not within an "App". I will keep my vote with this idea.

This is very important as app publishing is the way to go for sharing with a large number of users.
