Step-by-step guides for designers and content creators who want to bulk-download Pinterest boards, images, and videos in HD quality — faster than any other Pinterest downloader.
Install Chrome Extension
Required to download Pinterest boards. Download it free from Chrome Web Store.
How to Download a Pinterest Board
Three steps to bulk download any Pinterest board as an organized ZIP file
Install the Chrome Extension & Sign In
First, add PinDownCloud to Chrome from the Chrome Web Store (it's free). Then sign in using your Google or Microsoft account — it takes under 30 seconds. The Chrome extension is your bridge between Pinterest and our cloud download service — it detects the board you're visiting and automatically connects to our servers.
💡 Tips
- •The extension is completely free and secure — it only reads Pinterest board URL data
- •Install once and it updates itself automatically
- •Make sure you’re logged into Pinterest in the same browser
Go to Your Pinterest Board and Open the Extension
Navigate to any public Pinterest board or pin you want to download and open the PinDownCloud extension. It instantly detects the board and shows the number of pins available. Works for any type of board: inspiration boards, mood boards, design references — even boards with thousands of pins. The board must be public — private boards can't be downloaded for privacy reasons.
💡 Tips
- •The URL should look like: pinterest.com/username/boardname
- •You can download any public board, even if it’s not yours
- •Large boards (10,000+ pins) work great but take a bit longer
Click Download — Cloud Servers Do the Rest
Click download in the extension and our cloud servers extract every pin and start downloading each image and video in HD quality. You'll see live progress in your dashboard and receive an email when the ZIP is ready. No need to keep the browser open — the download keeps running in the cloud.
💡 Tips
- •You can track progress in real-time from your dashboard
- •You’ll receive an email notification when the ZIP is ready
- •Use ‘Only New’ to skip pins you’ve already downloaded before
Download Your Organized ZIP
Once complete, download your ZIP file — every image and video neatly organized and numbered in the order they appear on the Pinterest board. Full HD quality, no watermarks, ready to drop into Figma, Canva, Notion or Adobe Creative.
💡 Tips
- •ZIP files are available for 60 minutes after creation to manage server storage
- •You can re-download the same board any time for free from your download history
