Step 1 — Find the Pinterest video you want
Open Pinterest in your browser or the app and browse to the video you want to save. Make sure it's a single pin — not a board. A board shows many pins together; you need the one specific video pin to download it with our Pinterest video downloader.
Step 2 — Copy the pin link
How you copy depends on your device:
- Pinterest mobile app (iOS / Android): tap the share icon (arrow), then tap Copy Link.
- Pinterest desktop website: click the three-dot menu on the pin and choose Copy link. You can also right-click and copy from your browser's address bar.
- Pinterest mobile web (Safari / Chrome on phone): long-press the pin and choose Copy, or tap the share icon at the top of the page.
A valid Pinterest pin URL looks like https://pinterest.com/pin/123456789012345678 or the short version https://pin.it/AbCdEfGhI. Both formats work with video-pin.
Step 3 — Paste and download
Go back to video-pin.com, paste the URL into the box at the top of the page, and tap Download. Within a few seconds you'll see the pin's preview and one or more quality options (usually 480p, 720p, or 1080p depending on what Pinterest serves).
Tap the quality you want and the Pinterest video saves to your device. On phones it lands in your Photos or Downloads folder. On computers it appears in your browser's default downloads location.
How to download Pinterest videos on iPhone
iPhones have one minor quirk: Safari saves videos to your Files app rather than directly to Photos. After the download finishes, open the Files app, find your video in Downloads, tap and hold it, and choose Save Video to move it to your Photos library.
If you use the Pinterest iOS app, tap the share icon on the pin, choose Copy Link, then switch to Safari and paste it into video-pin.com.
How to download Pinterest videos on Android
Android is straightforward: the downloaded video goes directly into your Downloads folder, and from there into your Gallery or Photos app within a minute. Chrome and Samsung Internet both handle the save automatically.
How to download Pinterest videos on desktop
On Mac or PC, paste the URL on video-pin.com, click Download, and choose a quality. The video saves to your browser's default Downloads folder, ready to drag into Premiere, After Effects, or wherever you need it.
Tips for the best results
- Public pins only. If a pin is on a private board, video-pin can't reach it. Save it to one of your own public boards first, or open the pin in an incognito window — if you can see it logged out, our Pinterest video downloader can fetch it.
- Pick the highest quality available. Pinterest sometimes serves multiple resolutions. The number (720p, 1080p) refers to height — bigger means sharper.
- For idea pins and carousels, video-pin currently returns the first slide. Multi-slide support is on the roadmap.
- If a download fails, Pinterest's CDN may be having a moment. Try again in a few seconds — it usually works on the second attempt.
A note on respect
Everything you download was created by someone. Personal offline viewing is fine. Republishing, monetizing, or claiming credit for someone else's work isn't — please don't do it. When in doubt, credit the original creator and link back to their pin.
