How to download Pinterest images and GIFs

Pinterest has a built-in download option, but it does not show up for every Pin, GIF, carousel, browser or device. When Pinterest offers it, you can save the image straight from the app. When it is missing, paste the public Pin link into this downloader and save the file from there.

On the Pinterest website

Open the image, GIF or photo Pin you want to keep.
Click the three-dot menu on the Pin.
Check whether Download image appears in the list.
Click Download image to save it. If the option is not there, copy the Pin URL from the address bar and paste it into the downloader above.

In the Pinterest app

Open the Pin and tap the three-dot menu.
Tap Download image and the picture is saved to your phone.
If the option does not appear, tap Share, choose Copy link, and paste that link into the downloader.
