Step by step
How to download a Pinterest pin in 3 steps
The whole process takes a few seconds and works the same on phone and desktop.
- 1
Copy the pin link
Open the pin in the Pinterest app or on the web, tap the share icon and choose "Copy link". A pin.it short link works exactly as well as a full pinterest.com URL.
- 2
Paste it in the box
Come back to this page and paste the link into the field above. The Paste button grabs it straight from your clipboard on supported browsers.

Pick a quality and save
We read the pin and list every file it contains. Choose the resolution you want and the download starts immediately, straight to your device.
What you get
Why people use this Pinterest downloader
Original quality, always
We read the pin payload directly, so you get the full-resolution image or the highest MP4 the pin ships with, not a re-compressed copy.
No login, no app
No Pinterest account, no browser extension, no APK. Paste a link in any browser on Android, iPhone, Windows or Mac and the file is yours.
No watermark added
The file you save is byte-for-byte what Pinterest serves. We never brand, crop, re-encode or overlay anything on top of it.
Nothing is stored
Links are resolved on the fly and streamed straight through. We keep no copy of your pin, no download history and no personal data.
Videos, images, GIFs, Idea Pins
One box handles every pin type, including multi-page Idea Pins and carousels, where each slide gets its own download button.
Built for speed
Static pre-rendered pages, system fonts and a lookup API with no client framework. The page paints before most sites finish their first request.
What this tool actually does
Pinterest deliberately has no download button. Right-clicking a pin usually saves a down-scaled preview, and on mobile you cannot right-click at all. Screenshots throw away resolution and add whatever the interface happened to be covering.
This downloader takes a different route. It reads the pin the same way the Pinterest web app does, pulls the list of media files attached to that pin, and hands you the direct links. A single image pin normally exposes several sizes, and the one labelled Original is the untouched upload. A video pin usually exposes 240p through 720p or higher, and you pick whichever you want.
Because the file is streamed straight from Pinterest’s own CDN, the download is as fast as your connection allows and the bytes you receive are the bytes Pinterest stores. Nothing is re-encoded, resized or branded on the way through.
Where to find the link on each device
Pinterest app (Android & iPhone): open the pin, tap the share arrow, then tap Copy link. You
will get a short pin.it URL, which this tool resolves automatically.
Desktop browser: open the pin so its URL looks like pinterest.com/pin/123456789/ and copy it
from the address bar. You can also use the three-dot menu and choose Copy link.
From a board: a board URL is not a pin URL. Open the individual pin first, otherwise there is no single file to download.
Quality, formats and file sizes
Image pins come back as JPG or PNG, whichever the creator uploaded, in sizes that commonly run up to 2000 pixels or more on the long edge. Animated pins keep their GIF container so the animation survives. Video pins are MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, which every phone, laptop and editing app opens without a codec pack.
If a pin lists more than one option, the buttons are sorted best-first. The leftmost red button is always the highest quality version available.
Answers
Frequently asked questions
Is this Pinterest downloader free?
Yes, completely. There is no account to create, no trial, no daily quota and no paid tier. Paste a link and download as many pins as you need.
Do I need to install an app or extension?
No. Everything runs in your browser, so the same page works on Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS and Linux. There is nothing to install and nothing to update.
Which Pinterest pin types are supported?
Standard image pins, video pins, animated GIFs, multi-page Idea Pins (formerly Story Pins) and carousel pins. For pins with several slides you get a separate download button for each one.
Will the download have a watermark?
No. We stream the original file from Pinterest without touching it, so what you save is identical to what Pinterest serves. We never add a logo, border or overlay.
Can I download private or secret board pins?
No. Only pins that are publicly viewable can be fetched. If a pin sits on a secret board or belongs to a private account, Pinterest requires a login and the tool will tell you it cannot be read.
Do you store the pins I download?
No. The link is resolved on request and the media is streamed through to you without being written to disk. We keep no copy of the file and no per-user download history.
Why does a video download as MP4 instead of the original format?
Pinterest itself encodes video pins as MP4 in several resolutions. We list every MP4 rendition the pin ships with, so the largest one in the list is the best quality that exists.
Is downloading Pinterest content legal?
Downloading a pin for personal offline use is generally fine, but the content still belongs to whoever created it. Do not republish, resell or claim someone else’s work, and always check the original creator’s terms before using a pin commercially.
