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
File Manager sorts files by their extension, so a downloaded MP4 shows up under Video and pictures under the Download category.
Good to know on Xiaomi
Xiaomi documents File Manager › Download for browser downloads; if you use Chrome instead, Chrome's More › Downloads list applies.
If the download does not show up on Xiaomi
- Check File Manager › Download first: Open File Manager and look in the Download category; MP4 files also appear in the Video category.
- 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.
