What you get: the original JPG, PNG or WebP

For a picture pin the tool fetches the original file Pinterest stores, not the 736-pixel preview the app shows. In our test a carousel picture listed as 736 pixels wide downloaded as an original of 1365×1706 pixels (194 KB). The format stays what the uploader used, usually JPG, sometimes PNG or WebP.

Which app opens it on PC?

The Microsoft Photos app (JPEG and PNG supported).

Keep it with your photos and media

Move the file from Downloads to Pictures, Videos or Music in File Explorer if you want to keep it with your other media.

Good to know on PC

Every browser keeps its own download folder setting; check the one you used.

If the download does not show up on PC

  • Check the Downloads folder first: In Chrome, the download icon next to the address bar shows progress and the finished file; More › Downloads lists every download.
  • Make sure the pin is public. Private pins and secret boards cannot be read without logging in, and this tool never asks for your Pinterest password.
  • Links expire after one hour. If a button stops working, paste the pin link again.
  • A pin.it short link must be complete: copy it again from Share › Copy link.

Is the picture the full original size?

Yes. The tool asks for the original file, not the 736-pixel preview, and shows its real pixel size and file size before you save it.

Why is my image a PNG or WebP?

The format stays the one the uploader used. Nothing is converted, so there is no extra quality loss.
