Pinterest has hundreds of millions of video pins covering everything from home renovation walkthroughs and recipe tutorials to fitness routines and travel inspiration. The platform is a goldmine for visual content, but it does not offer a native way to download videos to your device.

That is where third-party tools come in. A good Pinterest downloader lets you paste a pin link and save the video file directly to your phone or computer in seconds. But with so many options available, it can be hard to tell which ones are actually worth using and which ones are full of pop-up ads and fake download buttons.

We tested several of the most popular free Pinterest video downloaders and compared them on speed, quality, device compatibility, and overall user experience. Here are the ones that stood out.

1. SSSPinterest

SSSPinterest is a clean, fast, browser-based tool that handles Pinterest video downloads without requiring any sign-up or software installation. You paste the pin URL, the tool processes it within a few seconds, and you get multiple quality options including HD and Full HD.

What stood out during testing was the speed. Most videos were ready to download in under five seconds, which was faster than several other tools we tried. The interface is minimal with no redirect ads, fake buttons, or confusing layouts. It supports video pins and GIF pins and delivers files in standard MP4 format.

It works across all devices and browsers including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge on iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac. For anyone looking for a reliable everyday Pinterest downloader, this is one of the best free options available.

2. PinDown

PinDown is another popular browser-based Pinterest downloader. It supports standard video pins and delivers downloads in HD quality. The interface is straightforward and the processing speed is solid.

One thing PinDown does well is handling shortened Pinterest URLs. Some tools struggle with the pin.it links that Pinterest generates when sharing from the mobile app, but PinDown resolves them without issues. It also works well on mobile browsers, which is important since most Pinterest users browse on their phones.

3. SavePin

SavePin focuses on simplicity. The homepage has a single input field, a download button, and nothing else. There are no extra features, no format selectors, and no quality tiers. You paste the link and it gives you the best available version.

This no-frills approach is great for people who do not want to think about settings. The downside is the lack of quality options. If you specifically want a lower resolution for smaller file sizes or a higher resolution for professional use, SavePin does not give you that choice. For quick, casual downloads, it works perfectly fine.

4. PinVid

PinVid supports both video and image downloads from Pinterest. It offers multiple quality options and delivers files in MP4 format. The tool is free and works without registration.

The processing speed was slightly slower than SSSPinterest and PinDown during our tests, but the quality of the output files was consistent. PinVid also includes a preview feature that lets you watch the video before downloading, which is useful when you want to confirm you copied the right link.

5. SnapSave

SnapSave is a multi-platform downloader that supports Pinterest alongside Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube. If you frequently download content from multiple social platforms, having one tool that handles everything can be convenient.

The Pinterest download quality is good and the tool offers HD options. However, because SnapSave covers so many platforms, the interface is slightly more cluttered than dedicated Pinterest tools. There are more ads than single-purpose tools, though nothing intrusive enough to ruin the experience.

What to Look for When Choosing a Tool

All five tools listed above are free and functional, but there are a few things worth checking before you settle on one.

Speed matters if you download frequently. A tool that takes 15 seconds per video adds up fast when you are saving multiple pins. HD quality support is essential because Pinterest stores videos in multiple resolution tiers and some tools only grab the lowest one. A clean interface without fake download buttons protects you from accidentally clicking something you should not.

Device compatibility is also important. Most Pinterest browsing happens on mobile, so the tool needs to work smoothly in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. All five tools we tested pass this requirement, but some perform better on specific browsers than others.

Quick Tips for Downloading Pinterest Videos

Always copy the full pin URL rather than a shortened link. If the tool shows an error, try opening the pin in a mobile browser and copying the URL from the address bar.

Select the highest quality option available. The default is not always the best.

Rename your downloaded files immediately. Generic filenames like video_382910.mp4 make it impossible to find anything later. Use descriptive names like Kitchen_Backsplash_Ideas.mp4 or Yoga_Flow_Tutorial.mp4.

Back up your collection to Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud. HD videos take up space and a cloud backup keeps your phone storage free while protecting against data loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. All of these tools work directly in your web browser. No apps, extensions, or software needed.

No. Pinterest does not add watermarks to its video content and none of these tools add their own branding to the downloaded files.

Which tool is the fastest?

Can I download Pinterest Idea Pins with these tools?
