How to Download Pinterest Photos in Full Resolution

Screenshots vs. the original file

A phone screenshot of a pin is usually 30–50% of the uploaded resolution, plus device UI baked in. Pinterest stores the original image file — often 2000px or larger — and that's what a downloader should fetch for you.

Step 1 — Copy the pin link

Open the pin and tap the Share arrow → Copy link. Both long pinterest.com/pin/… and short pin.it/… links work — short links are resolved automatically.

Step 2 — Paste into the Pinterest Downloader

Paste the link and press Get video. Despite the button name, the engine handles photo pins natively.

Step 3 — Tap Photo for full-size

Press the Photo button and the original-resolution image downloads. For video pins, choose an MP4 quality instead — audio included.

Mood boards without data

Full-res downloads are ideal for offline mood boards: weddings, renovations, recipes. Save them into a dedicated folder or your gallery's collections, no Pinterest app or connection required later.
