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.

Good to know on Samsung Galaxy
Samsung's pages describe My Files and Gallery; they do not name the folder Samsung Internet uses, so check My Files › Downloads first.
If the download does not show up on Samsung Galaxy
- Check My Files › Downloads first: Open My Files › Downloads. If you used Chrome, More › Downloads in Chrome lists the file too.
- 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.
