How to download Pinterest videos and images

Right-clicking a pin only gives you a downsized preview, and video pins cannot be saved from the app at all. This guide shows how to get the original file, video or image, in under a minute.

Updated · 3 steps · about a minute

  1. Copy the pin link

    Open the pin, tap the share icon, and choose Copy link. On desktop, copy the URL from the address bar. Regional domains like pinterest.co.uk and pin.it short links from the app all work.

  2. Paste it into ClipKoala

    Paste the link on the Pinterest downloader page. The pin appears with its title and a preview.

  3. Save the original

    Click Download Video for video pins or Download Image for image pins. You get the original upload, not the compressed preview Pinterest shows in the feed.

Good to know

  • Idea pins with several pages list each page as its own download
  • Image pins are saved as full-resolution JPGs, so they hold up when printed or used in a design
  • Pins on secret boards cannot be fetched
