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

Safari removes an older copy when you download the same item again, so rename a file you want to keep twice.

Good to know in Safari

Safari on Mac clears the downloads list after one day by default; the file itself stays in the folder.

If the download does not show up in Safari

  • Check Safari's download folder first: On Mac, click the downloads button near the top-right of the Safari window. Apple notes Safari clears items from this list after one day by default.
  • 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.
