Pinterest to MP4: How to Download Pinterest Videos for Free (2026)
Convert any Pinterest video Pin to MP4 in seconds. Step-by-step guide for iPhone, Android, and desktop — free, no login, no watermarks.
Why Convert Pinterest Videos to MP4?
Pinterest has become a major destination for short-form video content — tutorials, recipes, home design, fitness routines, and more. But Pinterest's app doesn't offer a native download button for video Pins, and content can disappear if the creator deletes their board.
Converting a Pinterest video to MP4 saves it permanently on your device in a universally compatible format.
How to Convert Pinterest Videos to MP4 (Free)
ClipsDown makes Pinterest-to-MP4 conversion instant and free:
- Open Pinterest (app or website) and find the video Pin.
- Copy the Pin link:
- Mobile: tap the Share (or ↑) icon → Copy link
- Desktop: click the Pin to open it → copy the URL from the address bar (format: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/XXXXXXXXXX/)
- Go to ClipsDown's Pinterest downloader in any browser.
- Paste the link and click Download.
- The video downloads as an MP4 file directly to your device.
That's it — no app, no login, no watermarks. The download is the original video quality (typically 720p–1080p depending on the original upload).
Does It Work for Pinterest Image Pins Too?
Yes. When you paste an image Pin link into ClipsDown, it fetches the full-resolution JPG or PNG — often a much higher resolution than what Pinterest displays in the feed. This is especially useful for:
- Reference photography
- Design inspiration
- Infographics and templates
- Recipe cards

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Pinterest video download at low resolution?
Pinterest compresses videos on upload. The quality you download is the highest Pinterest stores — ClipsDown always fetches the original source quality.
Can I download Pinterest board videos in bulk?
ClipsDown processes one Pin at a time. For bulk board downloads, a browser extension or desktop script may be more suitable.
Does the download include the Pin description or audio?
The downloaded MP4 includes all audio from the video. The Pin description (text) is not part of the video file itself.
What if the Pin link says "from [external website]"?
Pinterest often hosts the video directly even for externally sourced Pins. Paste the Pinterest Pin URL (not the external site URL) for best results.
