What you get: the original JPG, PNG or WebP

For a picture pin the tool fetches the original file Pinterest stores, not the 736-pixel preview the app shows. In our test a carousel picture listed as 736 pixels wide downloaded as an original of 1365×1706 pixels (194 KB). The format stays what the uploader used, usually JPG, sometimes PNG or WebP.

Which app opens it on iPad?

Files (Quick Look preview) or Photos once saved there.

Keep it with your photos and media

Photos and videos saved from Safari appear in Photos › Recently Saved on iPad; a downloaded file stays in Files › Downloads until you move or share it.

Good to know on iPad

If Safari is set to save to iCloud Drive, the file appears in iCloud Drive › Downloads.

If the download does not show up on iPad

  • Check Files › Downloads first: Tap Safari's Downloads button to see the status of the download and open the file.
  • Make sure the pin is public. Private pins and secret boards cannot be read without logging in, and this tool never asks for your Pinterest password.
  • Links expire after one hour. If a button stops working, paste the pin link again.
  • A pin.it short link must be complete: copy it again from Share › Copy link.
