Pinterest to MP4: How to Download Pinterest Videos as MP4
Want to save a Pinterest video as an MP4 file? The process is simple when the video is available on a public Pinterest Pin.
You copy the Pin link, paste it into an online downloader, let the tool process the available media, and download the video.
Download Pin Video provides a simple Pinterest Video Downloader that works directly in your browser without requiring an account or separate software.
This guide explains how Pinterest to MP4 downloads work, how video quality is determined, and what to check if a Pin cannot be processed.
What Does Pinterest to MP4 Mean?
Pinterest to MP4 usually means downloading a video from a Pinterest Pin as an MP4 video file.
MP4 is widely supported across Windows, macOS, Android, iPhone, tablets, and most modern media players.
However, the final file depends on the media Pinterest provides for the specific Pin. A downloader cannot create genuine extra resolution or detail that does not exist in the original source.
If an MP4 source is available, it can be downloaded in the quality provided for that Pin.
How to Download Pinterest Videos as MP4
1. Open the Pinterest Video
Find the Pinterest Pin containing the video you want to download.
The Pin needs to be publicly accessible. Private, deleted, restricted, or unavailable Pins may not be processable.
2. Copy the Pinterest Pin Link
Use Pinterest's share option and copy the Pin URL.
You may receive a regular pinterest.com/pin/... URL or a shortened pin.it link.
Avoid manually changing the URL. Copying the original link reduces the chance of submitting an incomplete address.
3. Paste the Link into Download Pin Video
Open Download Pin Video, paste the copied Pinterest video URL into the download field, and select the download button.
The downloader will process the Pin and check the available media. You can also see the basic process in our How It Works guide.
4. Review the Available Video
After processing, Download Pin Video displays the media available for that Pin.
If more than one genuine video option is available, you can review the available choices. If Pinterest provides only one suitable source, the downloader does not create fake quality options.
5. Download the Video
Select the available video download option and save the file to your device.
On desktop, the file will normally appear in your browser's Downloads folder. On Android or iPhone, the exact save location depends on the browser and device settings.
Can Pinterest Videos Be Downloaded in HD?
It depends on the source.
Pinterest Pins can provide different video resolutions and qualities. If a higher-quality version is available, a downloader may be able to provide that source.
But a low-resolution source cannot genuinely become HD, 1080p, or 4K simply by changing its resolution.
Download Pin Video therefore focuses on available source quality instead of promising a fixed resolution for every video.
Why Is My Pinterest Video Not Downloading?
A Pinterest video may fail to process when:
- the Pin has been deleted or made private
- the URL is incomplete or invalid
- the Pin contains an image or other media instead of video
- access to the content is restricted
- the source media is temporarily unavailable
First, open the Pinterest link normally and confirm that the Pin still works. Then copy the link again and retry.

Does Pinterest to MP4 Work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Download Pin Video works through modern mobile browsers.
On Android, you can copy the Pinterest link and paste it into the downloader through Chrome or another supported browser.
The same basic process works on iPhone and iOS through Safari or another modern browser.
Because the downloader works online, no separate app is required for supported Pinterest links.
Copyright and Creator Rights
Downloading a video does not automatically give you permission to republish, sell, or redistribute it.
Pinterest Pins may contain content owned by creators, photographers, businesses, or publishers. Always respect creator rights, platform terms, and applicable copyright rules.
Use downloaded media only when you own it, have permission to use it, or otherwise have the right to save and reuse it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Final Thoughts
Downloading Pinterest to MP4 is straightforward when the video is publicly available. Copy the Pinterest Pin URL, process it with Download Pin Video, review the available source, and download the video to your device.
The key point is that video quality depends on the original media available from the Pin. A reliable downloader should preserve the available source rather than promise artificial HD or 4K quality.
