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 in Safari?

Preview on Mac, Files on iPhone.

Keep it with your photos and media

Safari removes an older copy when you download the same item again, so rename a file you want to keep twice.

Good to know in Safari

Safari on Mac clears the downloads list after one day by default; the file itself stays in the folder.

If the download does not show up in Safari

  • Check Safari's download folder first: On Mac, click the downloads button near the top-right of the Safari window. Apple notes Safari clears items from this list after one day by default.
  • 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.
