How to Save Pinterest Videos to Your Phone or PC (2026)

Found an amazing video on Pinterest and want to save it to your phone or computer? You're not alone — millions of Pinterest users search for ways to save Pinterest videos to their device every month. Unfortunately, Pinterest doesn't include a native download button for most content. But with ReelDown, saving any Pinterest video to your phone or PC is free, fast, and takes under 10 seconds.

Can You Save Pinterest Videos Directly in the App?

Pinterest's built-in "Save" feature only saves pins to your Pinterest boards within the app — it does not download the video file to your device's storage. To actually save a Pinterest video as an MP4 file that you can watch offline without the app, you need a tool like ReelDown.

How to Save Pinterest Videos to Android

On Android, open the Pinterest app, find the video pin, tap the share icon and select "Copy Link". Open Chrome and go to reeldown.app/pinterest-video-downloader. Paste the link and tap Download HD. The MP4 file will be saved to your Downloads folder and will automatically appear in your Gallery app. You can also find it using any file manager app.

How to Save Pinterest Videos to PC (Windows/Mac)

On your computer, open pinterest.com in your browser. Find the video pin and copy its URL from the address bar (or right-click → Copy link address). Open a new tab and go to reeldown.app/pinterest-video-downloader. Paste the URL and click Download HD. The MP4 file will be saved to your default Downloads folder — typically at C:\Users\YourName\Downloads on Windows or ~/Downloads on Mac.

How to Save Pinterest Videos to Google Drive or iCloud

Once you've downloaded the Pinterest video using ReelDown, you can easily upload it to cloud storage:

  • Google Drive: Open the Drive app, tap "+", then "Upload", and select the downloaded MP4
  • iCloud Drive: The file is already in your Files app — tap and hold, then "Move" to iCloud Drive
  • Dropbox/OneDrive: Open the app and upload from your Downloads folder
💡 Important: Only save Pinterest videos for personal, offline use. Do not redistribute, upload publicly, or use downloaded content commercially without permission from the original creator.
