Pinterest is one of the world's largest visual discovery platforms, with billions of images organized into boards covering every topic imaginable. Whether you want to save recipe photos, interior design inspiration, fashion looks, or travel photography, Pinterest image downloading is easier than you might think.
Two Ways to Save Pinterest Images
Method 1: Right-Click Save on Desktop (Easiest for Photos)
For static Pinterest image Pins, the simplest approach on desktop: 1. Open Pinterest.com in your browser 2. Click on the Pin to open it 3. Right-click on the image and select Save image as 4. Choose a location and save
This works for most photo Pins and gives you the displayed resolution (typically 736px or 1200px wide).
Method 2: Use indirici.net for Video Pins and Higher Quality
- Video Pins — animated content that can't be right-click saved as an image
- Idea Pins — multi-slide format with video content
- Maximum quality — fetches the full-size image from Pinterest's CDN
Steps: 1. Navigate to the Pinterest Pin 2. Copy the Pin URL from your browser address bar 3. Go to indirici.net/pinterest-video-saver 4. Paste the URL and click Save 5. Download the image or video in full quality
Finding the Full-Resolution Pinterest Image
Pinterest often displays a compressed version of images in the feed. The full-resolution version is stored on their CDN. Our tool accesses this directly.
- Feed view: around 736px wide (compressed)
- Full resolution: up to 1500px or wider (what the original pinner uploaded)
