Where Is the Pinterest Video Downloader?

If you are looking for a download button inside Pinterest, you are not missing something obvious. Pinterest usually gives you sharing and saving controls, but not a universal video downloader. The practical path is to copy the pin link and use a browser-based tool like PinSave.

The Short Answer

Pinterest does not provide one consistent public video download button for every pin. Some media can be saved inside your Pinterest account, some can be shared, and some can be opened in a browser, but the direct file download control is usually not visible.

To download a Pinterest video, you normally need the pin URL. Once you have that link, paste it into PinSave and choose the available video quality.

Where to Find the Pinterest Copy-Link Button

The exact button placement changes slightly between Pinterest app versions, mobile browsers, and desktop browsers. Look for the share control first.

iPhone or iPad

Open the pin, then tap Share

In the Pinterest app, open the video pin, tap the share icon, then choose Copy Link. If you are using Safari, you can also copy the URL from the browser address bar.

Android

Tap Share, then Copy Link

Open the pin in the Pinterest app or Chrome. Tap the share icon, then select Copy Link. On some Android phones, the option may appear inside the system share sheet.

Desktop

Copy the page URL

Open the Pinterest pin in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari. Copy the full URL from the address bar. A normal pin URL often looks like pinterest.com/pin/123456789/.

Why Pinterest Does Not Always Show a Download Button

Pinterest is designed around saving ideas to boards, sharing pins, and sending traffic to the original source. A direct video download button would create copyright, creator attribution, and platform-control issues, so the experience focuses on Save, Share, and Copy Link instead.

That is why a Pinterest downloader usually works from the public pin URL. PinSave reads the public page data, finds the available media file, and gives you the download options your browser can save.

Important: Only download content you have the right to save. Downloaded Pinterest content may still be protected by copyright. Use saved files for personal offline reference unless you have permission from the creator.

Troubleshooting: If You Still Cannot Find It

I only see Send, not Copy Link

Tap the share icon and look for more options in the share sheet. On some phones, Copy Link is hidden behind the system sharing menu.

The copied link is very short

Short Pinterest links can still work. Paste it into PinSave first. If it fails, open the short link in your browser and copy the final full URL from the address bar.

PinSave says no downloadable content was found

The pin may be private, removed, region-limited, or not a standard video pin. Try opening the pin in a browser and copying the full URL again.
