What you get: one MP4 per video page, plus images

Pinterest's short videos are idea pins (the app's Reels-style feed). Their JSON lists only a streaming playlist; the tool finds the matching 720p MP4 and checks that it exists. Carousel pins with several slides give one download per slide, video or picture, up to 20.

Keep it with your photos and media

On iPhone or iPad, Chrome can save an image with touch and hold › Save Image; other files go to Files when you choose it on the “Save in…” screen.

Good to know in Chrome

Chrome may block a download if the site or owner prevents it; our download links are normal file downloads.

If the download does not show up in Chrome

  • Check Chrome's Downloads first: On a computer, the download icon next to the address bar; on Android, More › Downloads.
  • 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.
