ONLINE PIN DOWNLOADER

Download Pinterest Images Online with PinSave

PinSave is an online Pinterest image downloader that helps you save available images from supported public Pinterest Pins. Copy the link to the Pin, paste it into PinSave, and the tool checks the media available from that Pin.

When an image is available, PinSave lets you save the highest-quality image provided by the source. This makes it easier to keep a copy of a Pinterest photo or picture without taking a screenshot or manually searching for the image file.

The available resolution depends on the source media. PinSave does not artificially upscale an image when a larger original is not available.

UNDERSTANDING THE TOOL

What Is a Pinterest Image Downloader?

A Pinterest image downloader is a browser-based tool that helps you save images from supported Pinterest Pins.

Instead of taking a screenshot or manually searching through a Pinterest page for the image file, you can copy the Pin URL, paste it into PinSave, and let the downloader identify the available image.

PinSave is designed specifically around the Pinterest Pin URL workflow, making it easy to save supported Pinterest photos and images from your phone, tablet, or computer.

Pinterest Photos

Save available photos and images from supported Pins.

Highest Available Quality

Retrieve the highest/original image quality available from the source.

Browser Based

Use the tool directly from a modern browser.

pin.it Support

Paste supported Pinterest short links such as pin.it directly into PinSave.

SIMPLE 5-STEP WORKFLOW

How to Download Images from Pinterest

Follow these simple steps to save photos and pictures from Pinterest to your device:

Find the Pinterest image

Open Pinterest and find the Pin containing the image you want to save.

Copy the Pin link

Use Share → Copy link in the Pinterest app, or copy the Pin URL from your browser.

Paste the link into PinSave

Open the Pinterest Image Downloader and paste the Pinterest URL into the downloader.

Check the available image

PinSave processes the link and identifies the image available from the Pin.

Download the image

Choose the available download option and save the image to your device.

pin.it short link support: Supported pin.it links copied from the Pinterest mobile app can be pasted directly into PinSave without manual conversion.

IMAGE RESOLUTION & DETAIL

Download Pinterest Images in the Highest Available Quality

Image quality can vary between Pinterest Pins. When the source provides a higher-resolution or original image, PinSave retrieves the highest available version rather than unnecessarily reducing the image quality.

The final resolution still depends on the media available from the original source. If a Pinterest Pin only exposes a lower-resolution image, a downloader cannot recover detail that is not present in the source.

Original Source Resolution

Retrieves the master image upload without unnecessary downsampling.

High-Quality Pinterest Photos

Maintains sharpness, natural grain, and authentic color profiles for creative boards.

No Artificial Upscaling

Delivers genuine pixels rather than blurry, interpolated software scaling.

LINK COMPATIBILITY

Which Pinterest Links Does PinSave Support?

For the best results, use the URL of an individual Pinterest Pin containing the image you want to save.

PinSave also supports Pinterest short links using the pin.it domain, so you can paste a copied pin.it link directly into the downloader.

Individual Pinterest Pin URL

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/123456789012345678/

Direct links to specific image pins from desktop browsers or share menus.

Supported pin.it Short Links

https://pin.it/abc1234

Created automatically when sharing pins from the Pinterest mobile app.

Scope Notice: Profile pages, boards, search-result pages, private Pins, deleted content, or restricted media may not provide an image that can be downloaded.

Private Pin

Private or restricted content may not be accessible to the downloader.
