Download Pinterest videos in original HD

1. Find the Video on Pinterest

Open Pinterest and find the video you want to save. Open the individual Pin before copying anything.

A Pin page contains the specific video and its details. A profile or board URL points to a collection of Pins instead.

2. Copy the Pinterest Video Link

Open the Pin's sharing options and select Copy link. Pinterest gives you a URL that identifies that specific Pin.

Use this Pinterest download link with the downloader. Avoid copying a profile or board link if you want one specific video.

3. Paste the Pinterest Link

Return to the downloader and find the input box. Paste the copied URL into the box.

The tool uses this link to identify the Pin and check for available media. You do not need to search for the video file yourself.

4. Click the Download Button

Click the Download button to process the link. The tool checks the Pin and prepares the available video file.

Processing time can vary based on the link and media. Wait for the download option to appear.

5. Save the Pinterest Video

Select the available download option to save the file to your device. Your browser usually places downloaded files in its default Downloads folder.

On phones, the file may appear in your browser's downloads area or your device's file manager. The exact location depends on your browser and device settings.

Direct Pinterest Pin Links

A direct Pin link points to one specific post on Pinterest. This gives the downloader a clear target to process.

Copy the link from the individual Pin and paste it into the input box.

Short pin.it Links

Pinterest also uses shortened pin.it links for sharing Pins. Paste the short link directly into the tool and it resolves to the full Pin automatically before processing.

Pinterest Video Pin Links

Use the URL of the Pin that contains the video you want to download. The downloader then checks the linked Pin for available media.

The result depends on the media available from that Pin.

Pinterest Links That Are Not Supported

Some URLs do not identify one specific video. These links may not work with the downloader.

• Profile URLs point to a user's Pinterest profile rather than one Pin.
• Board URLs point to a collection of Pins. They do not identify one specific video.
• Search URLs show search results instead of one individual Pin.
• Invalid or incomplete URLs may not contain enough information to identify the intended Pin.
• Private or inaccessible Pins may not provide media that the downloader can retrieve.

Why You Should Copy the Individual Pin Link

Open the actual Pin before copying its URL. This gives the downloader a direct reference to the content you want.

A profile or board can contain hundreds of Pins. The downloader cannot know which video you mean from that type of link.

For a reliable Pinterest download, open the video Pin, choose Share, and copy its link. Then paste that Pinterest download link into the tool.

Pinterest Video Downloader HD

A Pinterest video downloader HD option can help you save an available high-quality version without manually locating the media file.

The result can vary between Pins. Some videos may offer higher-quality media than others.

720p and 1080p Video

720p and 1080p describe the video's resolution. A higher number usually means more image detail, but file size can also increase.

A 1080p download only makes sense when the source provides that resolution. The downloader cannot recover detail that the original video never contained.

2K and 4K Pinterest Videos

Some users search for a Pinterest video download in 2K or 4K. These options depend on the source media and the versions available for processing.

Do not expect every Pin to provide 2K or 4K. A downloader cannot create genuine 4K quality from a lower-resolution video.

Does the Downloader Improve Video Quality?

No. A downloader retrieves available media from the linked Pin.

It does not turn a 720p video into genuine native 4K. Upscaling a low-resolution file cannot restore missing image detail.

For the best result, start with a Pin that already contains high-quality video.

Does the Downloaded Video Have a Watermark?

Whatever watermark is already present in the source video, if any, stays as it is. Our tool does not add a watermark, and it does not remove one that Pinterest or the creator has already applied.

Pinterest allows creators to enable downloads on some full-screen video Pins, and when that is turned on, Pinterest's own download can include the creator's username as a watermark. If the source video carries that watermark, the file you get here will carry it too.

If the video belongs to another creator, respect their copyright and usage rights before reposting or using the file commercially.

Pinterest Video Downloader for Android

Open Pinterest and find the video Pin you want to save. Open the Pin, then use the sharing option to copy its URL.

Next, open your browser and visit the downloader. Paste the Pinterest link into the input box and start the download.

After processing finishes, save the available video file. You can usually find it in your browser's Downloads folder or your device's file manager.

Pinterest Video Downloader for iPhone

Open the video Pin in Pinterest and copy its link. You can use the Pin's sharing options to get the URL.

Open your browser and visit the downloader. Paste the Pin link into the input box and start processing.

Once the file becomes available, download it to your device. Check the browser's download area or the Files app to locate the saved video.

Pinterest Video Downloader for iPad

The process on an iPad works much like the iPhone.

Copy the link from the individual Pinterest Pin. Open your browser and paste the URL into the downloader.

Start the download and check the browser's download area afterward. You can also look in the Files app for the saved file.

Pinterest Video Downloader for Windows PC

Open Pinterest in your browser and find the video Pin. Open the Pin and copy its URL.

Visit the downloader in another browser tab. Paste the link into the input box and click the download button.

Your browser will normally save the video in the Downloads folder. You can change this location through your browser's download settings.

Pinterest Video Downloader for Mac

Open Pinterest in Safari, Chrome, or another supported browser. Find the video Pin and copy its link.

Paste the URL into the downloader and start processing. Download the available video when processing finishes.

Check your browser's download list or the Downloads folder to find the file.

Download Pinterest Videos Without an App

You do not need a separate downloader app when the tool works through a browser. The basic process stays the same across supported devices.

Copy the Pin link, open the downloader, paste the URL, process it, then download the available file.

This browser-based approach also avoids installing unknown software just to save a Pinterest video.

Pinterest Reels Download

Many users search for a Pinterest Reels download when they want to save a short video from Pinterest.

If the content appears as a video Pin, copy the link to that individual Pin. Then paste the URL into the downloader.

The tool checks the Pin and returns the available video file. Support can vary based on the source media.

Pinterest Video Pins

Video Pins can contain a single video or multiple videos and images. Pinterest supports video Pins across its platform, including mobile and desktop experiences.

To download one, open the specific video Pin and copy its link. Paste that URL into the downloader and process it.

The available file and quality depend on the media associated with the Pin.

Full-Screen Video Pins

Pinterest supports full-screen video Pins with a recommended 9:16 aspect ratio. Pinterest also allows creators to control downloads for these Pins.

If a creator enables Pinterest's native download option, the downloaded video can include the creator's username as a watermark, and our downloader passes that through unchanged rather than adding or stripping it.

The result depends on the media available from the source.

Pinterest GIFs

GIFs are another type of visual media on Pinterest. Our dedicated GIF downloader saves animated Pins as a looping GIF or as MP4, keeping the animation intact.

If the Pin contains video media instead of a traditional GIF file, the resulting download may be a video rather than a GIF.

Pinterest Images

Pinterest also supports image Pins, which contain a still image rather than video. Our dedicated image downloader grabs the original uploaded file, not a resized thumbnail.

Always check the actual file returned by the tool. The available media depends on the source Pin and its content.

You Copied the Wrong Pinterest Link

The URL may point to a page instead of the specific video Pin.

Solution: open the video Pin first, use Share, then Copy link, and paste that URL into the downloader.

You Copied a Board or Profile URL

Board and profile links contain multiple Pins. They do not identify one specific video.

Solution: open the exact video you want and copy the URL from that individual Pin instead.

The Pin Is Private

Private or restricted content may not provide media that the downloader can access.

Solution: check whether you can open the Pin normally. If you cannot access it, use a publicly accessible Pin instead.

The Pin Has Been Deleted

Pinterest may still show an old link after its Pin disappears. The downloader cannot retrieve media that no longer exists.

Solution: open the link on Pinterest first. If the Pin no longer loads, look for another active version from the creator.

The Video Is No Longer Available

A Pin can remain visible while its original video becomes unavailable. This can prevent the downloader from finding usable media.

Solution: open the Pin and check whether the video plays normally. If it does not, look for an active copy or another Pin containing the same content.

No Downloadable Media Was Found

The Pin may load correctly but contain no media that the downloader can process.

Solution: check that the Pin contains a video, then copy its direct URL again and submit it. If the same Pin still returns no media, the source may not provide a compatible video file.

The URL Is Invalid

A copied URL can become incomplete or altered during copying. Extra characters can also cause processing problems.

Solution: return to Pinterest and copy the link again, then paste the new URL without changing it.

The Browser Is Blocking the Download

Browser settings can sometimes prevent files from downloading automatically. Pop-up or download restrictions can also affect the process.

Solution: check your browser's download permissions and make sure the site can start downloads when you click the download button.

Temporary Processing or Server Error

Sometimes the downloader cannot process a valid link because of a temporary service problem.

Solution: check the URL first. If the Pin works normally, wait briefly and submit the same link again; a temporary processing error may clear without changing the Pin.

The Video Opens Instead of Downloading

Some browsers open a media file in a new tab instead of saving it directly.

Solution: use the browser's download option for the opened file. On a computer, right-click the video and choose the browser's save option; on mobile, use the browser's available download or share option.

Copy the Pin Link Again

Return to the individual video Pin and copy its link again. Avoid copying a board, profile, or search URL.

Paste the new Pinterest download link into the tool without changing it.

Open the Original Pin

Open the Pin directly on Pinterest before downloading it. Make sure the video loads and plays normally.

If the Pin itself does not open, the downloader may not access its media either.

Check Your Internet Connection

A weak connection can interrupt link processing or file downloads.

Open another website to confirm your connection works, then return to the downloader and submit the Pin link again.

Try Another Browser

Browser settings can affect downloads and file handling.

If the download fails in one browser, open the downloader in another browser and use a current version for the best compatibility.

Clear a Failed Download

A partial file can remain after an interrupted download. Check your browser's download list and remove the failed entry.

Then start a fresh download from the processed result.

Try Another Device

A device-specific browser setting can sometimes cause the problem.

If the download fails on your phone, try a computer. If it fails on your computer, test the same Pin from a mobile browser.

Check Browser Download Settings

Your browser controls where downloaded files go, and it can also block downloads in some situations.

Check the browser's download permissions and default save location, and make sure your browser allows the file download after you click the download button.

When the Pinterest Video Cannot Be Retrieved

Some Pins simply do not provide media that the downloader can retrieve. Private, deleted, restricted, or unavailable content can cause this result.

Check that the Pin still works on Pinterest. If the video plays normally but remains unavailable, the source may not provide a compatible media file.

Android

Open your browser's download list first. You can also check the Downloads folder through your device's file manager.

The exact location can vary between Android devices and browsers.

iPhone and iPad

Check the Downloads folder in the Files app. Safari can store downloaded files there based on your download settings.

You can also check Safari's download list for the recently saved file.

Windows

Open File Explorer and select the Downloads folder. Most desktop browsers save downloaded files there by default.

If you changed the browser's save location, check that folder instead.

Mac

Open Finder and select Downloads. Safari and many other browsers use this folder by default.

You can check your browser's download settings if the file is not there.

Do You Need a Pinterest Account?

Pinterest requires an account for some features, such as creating Pins and saving content to boards.

For our downloader, the key requirement is a usable Pinterest Pin link. If you can access the public Pin and copy its URL, you can submit that link to the tool — we never ask for a Pinterest account or login.

Access rules can vary for individual Pins. Private or restricted content may not provide media that the downloader can retrieve.

Do You Need the Pinterest App?

No. A browser-based downloader like ours does not require the Pinterest app. You can copy a supported Pin link from Pinterest and paste it into the tool.

Pinterest also supports browser access to its own service. The exact features available can vary between the app and browser.

Can You Use a Browser Instead?

Yes. A browser lets you open the downloader, paste the Pinterest link, and process the Pin.

This works across supported phones, tablets, and computers. Your browser also controls the downloaded file's location and download permissions.

Can You Download a Public Pin Without Logging In?

This depends on Pinterest's current access rules and the specific Pin. Public availability does not guarantee that every Pin can be processed.

Pinterest provides account-based features and may restrict access to some content.

If a public Pin opens normally, copy its individual URL and submit it to the downloader. If Pinterest requires access, the downloader cannot bypass that restriction.

Do You Need to Enter Your Pinterest Password?

No. Our downloader never asks for your Pinterest password to process a Pin URL.

Never enter your Pinterest password into an unfamiliar downloader. Pinterest uses account credentials for its own login system, and our tool only ever needs the Pin link itself.

Does the Tool Require an Account?

No. Our downloader works around the Pin URL rather than your Pinterest account.

You can use it without creating a separate account, and you never need to provide your Pinterest login details.

Are Downloaded Files Stored on Our Servers?

No. We don't store the files you download. When you submit a Pin, our server requests that public page just long enough to find the media it contains, and the resulting file streams straight through to you rather than being written to disk or a database.

We also don't keep a record of your download history.

What Happens to the Pinterest URL?

The URL is used for that single request to locate the media. It is not written to a database or attached to your identity.

Our hosting provider does keep short-lived technical logs, things like IP address, timestamp, and error traces, for security and debugging. These rotate automatically and are never used for profiling or advertising; see our Privacy Policy for the full picture.

What Information Does the Website Collect?

Our Privacy Policy explains exactly what we collect and why. In short: we store a theme preference (light or dark) in your browser's local storage, and our host keeps short-lived technical logs for security. We don't use cookies for advertising and we don't sell data to third parties.

Pinterest itself documents categories such as device information, IP addresses, log data, cookies, and usage data in its own privacy policy, since fetching the Pin means Pinterest's servers see a request coming from our infrastructure.

Does the Tool Install Software?

No. Our downloader works entirely through your browser and never asks you to install a desktop application or browser extension.

You should not need to install an unknown application just to download a video. If a site asks you to install something to use a simple link-paste downloader, treat that as a red flag.

Browser and Download Safety

Keep your browser updated and download files only from the result you expect.

Check the file name and extension before opening it, and avoid unexpected executable files when you requested a video.

Your browser may also warn you about downloads. Treat unexpected warnings seriously instead of bypassing them automatically.

Privacy and Data Handling

Privacy starts with knowing what a service does with your data. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle submitted URLs, technical logs, cookies, and any third-party services involved in processing.

Do not provide personal information the downloader does not need, and never share your Pinterest password with a download tool, including this one.

Downloading Your Own Pinterest Content

If you created the video and own the relevant rights, downloading your own Pinterest content is different from copying someone else's work.

You can keep a local copy of your own video for backup, editing, or other permitted uses. Make sure you also have the necessary rights to any music, footage, images, or other material included in the video.

Downloading Content You Have Permission to Use

Permission from the copyright owner can give you the right to download and use a Pinterest video within the limits of that permission.

For example, a creator may allow you to save a video for a specific project or repost it with attribution. Keep a record of the permission and follow any conditions the creator gives you.

Pinterest notes that it may not know who owns the copyright in a particular Pin. If you need permission, you may need to contact the actual copyright holder yourself.

Pinterest Copyright and Creator Rights

Posting a video on Pinterest does not automatically transfer copyright ownership to Pinterest or to every person who can view the Pin.

Pinterest's Terms state that users retain rights in the User Content they post, while also granting Pinterest and its users certain licenses described in the Terms. Users must also have the rights needed to post their content.

Pinterest also provides copyright reporting tools for rights holders who believe their work has been used without authorization.

Public Does Not Mean Free to Reuse

A public Pin can be visible to other Pinterest users without giving everyone permission to copy, modify, publish, or sell the video.

Visibility and copyright permission are different. A video can be publicly viewable while its creator or another rights holder still controls how it can be reused.

Before using a downloaded video outside your own personal reference, check who owns the work and what permission or license applies.

Personal Use vs Commercial Use

Personal and commercial use can involve different rights and restrictions.

Saving a video for personal reference does not automatically give you permission to use it in an advertisement, product, business website, monetized video, or other commercial project.

Commercial use can also involve additional rights beyond copyright, such as trademarks, privacy rights, publicity rights, music licenses, or other third-party permissions.

If you plan to use a Pinterest video commercially, get permission or confirm that you have another valid legal basis for the intended use.

Reposting Downloaded Pinterest Videos

Downloading a video does not automatically give you the right to repost it.

If another creator made the video, check whether you have permission to publish it on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, your website, or another platform. Giving credit can be appropriate, but credit alone does not always replace permission.

Pinterest expects users to respect intellectual property, and its Community Guidelines prohibit infringement of intellectual property rights.

If you are unsure about a specific use, check the video's license or contact the copyright owner. For questions involving local copyright law or a commercial project, consider getting advice from a qualified legal professional.

Pinterest's Native Download Option

Pinterest provides download options for some Pins. Its Help Center explains that downloadable Pins can be saved directly to a computer or mobile device. Pinterest also allows creators to control downloads for full-screen video Pins; when enabled, those videos can be downloaded with the creator's username watermark.

The native option is useful when Pinterest already provides the download button for the specific Pin.

However, not every Pin has the same download options. Pinterest notes that not all Pins can be downloaded.

Online Pinterest Video Downloader

An online Pinterest video downloader is a separate web tool designed to process a Pinterest video link and provide a downloadable media file.

The typical workflow is simple:

1. Copy the Pinterest Pin link.
2. Paste the link into the downloader.
3. Let the tool process the Pin.
4. Download the available video file.

This can be useful when you specifically want a video file rather than simply saving the Pin to your Pinterest boards.

The exact formats, quality options, supported links, and download behavior depend on the downloader you are using. These should always match the tool's actual capabilities.

Saving a Pin vs Downloading a Video

This is where many Pinterest users get confused.

Save Pin saves the Pin to Pinterest: when you click Save, Pinterest adds the Pin to one of your boards, and you can find it again from your account later. Pinterest describes saved Pins as content organized on your boards.

Download saves media to your device: it creates a local file on your computer, phone, or tablet. Pinterest's Help Center describes downloading as saving the Pin's image to your device, while saving adds the Pin to a board.

Saving a Pin does not mean you have downloaded the underlying video file.

Screen Recording vs Downloading

Screen recording and downloading can both result in a video file on your device, but they work differently.

Screen recording captures what your device displays while the video plays. The result is a recording of your screen, so it can include interface elements, notifications, or changes in playback quality.

Downloading retrieves a media file rather than recording the screen. The resulting file depends on the source and the download method.

For example, if you want to keep a video for which you have permission to use, downloading the available media file can be more convenient than playing the video and recording your screen.

Screen recording can still be useful when a direct download option is unavailable, but it is not the same technical process as downloading the original media file.

Paste the Pinterest URL

Start by copying the URL of the Pinterest Pin containing the video you want to download.

Paste that link into the downloader's input field and submit it.

A Pinterest link can point to different types of content, so the tool first needs to determine what the URL represents before processing the request.

URL and Pin Detection

After you submit the link, the downloader processes the Pinterest URL to identify the associated Pin and determine whether usable video media is available.

A valid Pin URL does not guarantee that a downloadable video will be available. The result can depend on the type of Pin, its accessibility, and the media associated with it.

Media Processing

Once the Pin and available media are identified, the downloader processes the video so it can be presented as a downloadable file.

The tool does not change the basic nature of the source content. If the requested Pin does not contain accessible video media, the downloader cannot produce a video file from it.

Processing can also fail when a Pinterest link is invalid, unavailable, restricted, or no longer points to usable media.

Available Video Quality

The available download quality depends on the source media and what the downloader can retrieve from that Pin.

We serve the exact file Pinterest stores rather than a re-encode, so we don't treat a quality label such as HD as a guarantee that every Pinterest video will be available at that resolution.

If the source only provides a lower-quality version, downloading it does not create additional detail that was not present in the original media.

Download File Delivery

After processing is complete, the downloader provides the available video as a downloadable file.

You can then save that file to your device using your browser's normal download process.

The exact filename, file format, and download behavior depend on the result returned by the tool. We only describe formats and options that the downloader actually provides.

Temporary Processing and Server Handling

We don't permanently store downloaded videos, and we don't keep a log of what you've downloaded. When you submit a Pin, the server requests that public page briefly to find the media it contains, then streams the result straight through to you rather than writing it to disk.

The same applies to the submitted URL: it's used for that one request and isn't attached to your identity or saved to a database. Our hosting provider keeps short-lived technical logs for security and debugging, and those rotate automatically.

The goal is simple: describe what the downloader actually does, which is documented in full in our Privacy Policy.

Online Pinterest Video Downloader

The tool works through a web page rather than requiring users to follow a manual download process inside Pinterest.

Open the downloader, enter the supported Pinterest link, and submit it for processing.

Simple URL-Based Downloads

The main input is a Pinterest URL.

You do not need to manually search through page source code or locate a video file yourself. The tool uses the submitted Pin link as the starting point for processing.

Mobile and Desktop Support

The downloader's interface works through a standard web browser, so the same page can be accessed from supported desktop and mobile browsers.

The exact experience can vary between browsers, devices, and Pinterest links.

MP4 Downloads

Yes, video Pins are delivered as MP4 files, so you can save the resulting video as an MP4 through your browser.

HD Quality Options

We serve the exact file Pinterest stores for that Pin, so when a higher-resolution version is available, that's what you get.

Available resolution depends on the source media and what the tool can retrieve. A downloader cannot create genuine source detail that was never available in the original video.

Browser-Based Tool

The downloader is accessed entirely through a web browser.

This keeps the user workflow centered on the downloader page rather than a separate desktop or mobile application.

No Software Installation

No installation is required. You can open the downloader in a supported browser and use the web interface instead of installing dedicated downloader software.

Pinterest Media Support

The tool is built specifically around supported Pinterest URLs and Pinterest media.

Support should not be interpreted as a guarantee that every Pin can be downloaded. Pinterest content can differ by Pin type, availability, access conditions, and the media attached to the Pin.

If a submitted URL does not contain accessible downloadable video media, the tool may not be able to return a video file.

Why a Pinterest Downloader Can Stop Working

The downloader reads public Pin pages. When Pinterest changes how those pages are built, or a Pin's media is removed or made private, extraction can fail until the tool is updated.

What Happens When Something Breaks

When extraction breaks, we update the downloader so it can read Pinterest's pages again. Until then, some Pins may return no downloadable file or show an error message instead.

How to Report a Problem

If a public Pin will not download, email us through the Contact page. Include the Pin link and the browser and device you used, so we can reproduce the problem.

What We Do Not Claim

We do not claim that every Pin can be downloaded, or that downloads meet a fixed speed or uptime. The file you get is the one Pinterest stores for that Pin, unchanged.
