Saved to your Downloads folder (Ctrl+J or Cmd+J).
Choose Original, or a smaller width, then download the JPG, PNG or WebP.
The picture you see while scrolling Pinterest is usually a 736 pixel preview. The file the creator uploaded is often much larger. PinSaver's image downloader looks for that original and lists it first, then offers smaller widths when the same photo can be requested at 1200, 736 or 474 pixels. You pick the size, and the browser saves it.
That matters for moodboards, print references, classroom slides and anything where a blurry crop is annoying. JPG, PNG and WebP stay in the format that was posted. PinSaver does not convert them and does not run them through a filter. If the original is a tall 2000 by 3000 photo, the original choice keeps those dimensions.
Carousel Pins, the ones with several photos you swipe, are handled as separate images. Each slide gets its own download, in order. You can save one slide or start them one after another. Idea Pins that are mostly stills are covered on the Idea Pin page, and a video's cover frame has its own thumbnail downloader.
Paste a single Pin link. Board and profile URLs are rejected on purpose, with a note to open one Pin. Country sites such as pinterest.de or pinterest.com.au work, and so do pin.it short links from the share sheet. There is no account to create.
As with every other file on PinSaver, the image is fetched when you ask and is not stored here. You are responsible for how you use it. A public photo is not a free licence. If you want to republish someone's work, ask them, and read the copyright notes on the disclaimer and DMCA pages.
If a Pin says no media was found, you may have copied a board, or the image may sit on a private board. Open the Pin in a logged-out window. If it does not load there, PinSaver cannot load it either. A fresh copy of the link fixes most of the remaining cases.
Start from the original upload instead of the 736px preview.
JPG, PNG and WebP are saved as they were uploaded.
1200, 736 and 474 widths are listed when those sizes exist.
Each photo in a multi-image Pin is its own download.
Width and height are on the quality chip before you save.
A public link is enough. Nothing is installed.
A straight comparison
Three ways people try to keep a Pin. Only the differences that are actually true.
| PinSaver | A screenshot | Another app | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you keep | The file that was published | A picture of the screen | Depends on that app |
| Sound on a video | Kept when the upload has it | Lost | Varies |
| Quality you can read | Width, height, and format before you save | Whatever your screen is | Often unlabeled |
| Account | None | You are already in Pinterest | Often required |
| A whole board | Not offered. Open one Pin. | One screen at a time | Some claim it. We do not. |
| Private Pins | Not available | Only if you can already open them | Usually the same limit |
A screenshot is a photo of the Pinterest screen. “Another app” means a typical installed downloader, not a review of one product.
If something fails
01
A board address has no /pin/ id. Open one Pin and copy that link.
02
pin.it addresses work when they point at one Pin. If one fails, open the Pin and copy the long URL.
03
After the download, use Safari’s Downloads icon, then Share, then Save Video or Save Image.
04
A logged-out window is the test. If the Pin does not open there, PinSaver cannot fetch it.
05
If the upload is small, the choices stay small. Nothing is upscaled and labeled 4K.
No board scraping and no profile downloads. You paste a link you can already open.
The page works in the browser. There is no extension and no Pinterest login.
Media is streamed for your download and is not stored as a library.

Keep the animation. Save a Pinterest GIF as a GIF, or as MP4 when Pinterest made one.
Save every page of a public Idea Pin. Videos and images stay in the order the creator published.
Stories and Idea Pins are multi-page posts. Paste the Pin link and save each public page.
Save the cover image from a public Pinterest video. Useful when you need the still, not the clip.
Boards are collections. PinSaver saves one public Pin at a time. Open a Pin from the board and paste that link.
Profile pages are not scraped. If the photo is a public Pin, paste that Pin link and save the image.
Short answers for this tool. The full list lives on the FAQ page.
Pinterest shows a compressed preview in the grid, often 736 pixels wide. The original upload is a different URL, and that is what PinSaver prefers.
Yes. The extension and file type follow the upload. PinSaver does not convert images to JPG.
No. Open each Pin you want, or use a carousel Pin which already groups its own slides. Boards are out of scope.
Some Pins only expose a sized image. PinSaver lists the sizes it can actually find rather than inventing a larger file.
Paste it on the home page. You get the file that was published, then it leaves with you.
