How to download Pinterest videos on a computer

Save an available video from a public Pinterest pin on Windows, macOS, Linux, or ChromeOS using your regular browser.

Quick steps

  1. 1Open the exact Pinterest video pin in your browser.
  2. 2Copy the address bar URL or use Share > Copy link.
  3. 3Open pinova.pro, paste the URL, and select Download.
  4. 4Check the preview, choose the video option, and save the MP4.
Open the Pinova downloader

Use the exact pin URL

Board, profile, feed, and search URLs do not identify one media file. Open the individual pin first. A suitable address normally contains /pin/ and a numeric identifier; a pin.it share link is also accepted.

If Pinterest displays the pin in an overlay, its Share menu is the most reliable way to copy the canonical link.

Fix a video that opens in a new tab

Some browsers play MP4 files instead of downloading them. Use the player's menu or right-click and choose Save video as.

  • Allow downloads from pinova.pro if the browser blocks them.
  • Check the browser's download icon for a paused file.
  • Disable extensions that rewrite download links while troubleshooting.
  • Retry with the full Pinterest URL if the short link is stale.

Find the file on Windows or Mac

Browsers normally use Downloads unless you changed the setting. Press Ctrl+J in Chrome or Edge on Windows, or Command+Option+L in Chrome on macOS, to review recent downloads.
