How to Download Pinterest Videos (Step by Step)
Copy the Pin link, paste it into Snapzia and save the video as MP4 in the best quality available. Free, with no app and no account.
Found a Pinterest video you want to keep? You can save it to your phone or computer in three steps, without installing an app or creating an account. Copy the link of the Pin, paste it into Snapzia, and press the download button.
This guide shows each step, what to do if the download does not start, and what decides the quality of the video you get.
Step 1: Copy the link of the video
Open Pinterest and find the Pin with the video. Tap Share (or the ••• menu) and choose Copy link.
On a computer, open the Pin in your browser and click Share, then Copy link. You can also copy the address from the browser's address bar.
You only need the link of the Pin. You do not copy the video itself.
Step 2: Paste the link into Snapzia
Open the Snapzia Pinterest Video Downloader, paste the link into the box at the top of the page and press Download. On a phone you can also tap Paste.
After a few seconds, Snapzia shows a preview of the video.
Step 3: Save the video
When the page says that your video is ready, check the preview to make sure it is the right one. Then press Download video to save it to your device.
There is nothing to choose. Snapzia picks the best quality that Pinterest provides for that video. The file is saved as MP4, which plays on iPhone, Android, computers and most video players.
If the main button does not save the file, tap Download link [2]. It opens the video file directly, and you can save it from your browser’s menu.
Only need the cover image? Press Download Video Thumbnail to save the thumbnail without the video.
Where is the downloaded video?
The video goes to the usual downloads location of your device. The exact folder depends on your device and browser, so we explain it in where downloaded Pinterest videos are saved. On a phone, you can also follow the guide for iPhone or Android.
What quality will I get?
Snapzia saves the version of the video that Pinterest provides, and the quality depends on the original. Most videos download in HD (720p), some in Full HD (1080p), and a few in 4K when the original video is 4K. Snapzia cannot raise the quality of a video, so a video that was uploaded in low resolution stays low resolution.
What if the video does not download?
Most problems come from a private Pin or an incomplete link, so copy the link again with the Copy link button and try once more. If that does not solve it, read why you can’t download a Pinterest video, where each cause has its own fix.
Does the video have a watermark?
Snapzia does not add a watermark to the videos it saves. The file is the video that Pinterest provides, so it carries no Snapzia logo. If the creator put a logo or text inside the original video, it stays visible, because it is part of the video itself.
Before you download
Pinterest videos belong to the people who created them. Download them for personal use, such as saving an idea or watching offline. If you want to repost a video or use it commercially, ask the creator for permission first. You can read more in our guide on whether downloading from Pinterest is legal.
