How to Download an Entire Pinterest Board (Step-by-Step)
Complete guide to downloading a full Pinterest board. Save all images and videos from any board in seconds.
- Downloading
- Workflow
TL;DR Use Unpinned, a free browser extension, to download entire Pinterest boards in one click. Create an account, install the extension, and start downloading any board.
Why Saving a Whole Board Still Hurts in 2026
You, me, designers, social media folks: we’ve all wasted hours right-clicking or, even worse, screenshotting Pins one by one. We’ve been there. So we searched for a tool and found nothing good. Other downloaders are either:
- Slow or broken (they crash after ~20 Pins)
- Stuffed with ads / malware
- Price-gouging (€20+ for basic features)
- Data-hungry (ask for scary permissions)
Because we at Uninspired Studio needed it and didn’t want to deal with shady downloaders or expensive ones, we built Unpinned, a lightweight browser extension that just works, for the price of a coffee.
Step-by-step: download a Pinterest board with Unpinned
- Create a free account. We’ll guide you through onboarding and install the Unpinned Pinterest Downloader extension (Chrome, Edge, and Firefox).
- Navigate to the Pinterest board (or single Pin) you want to save.
- Click the puzzle-piece icon in your browser’s toolbar.
- Choose Unpinned → Download board.
A ZIP containing every image and video downloads automatically. If your board has sections, those are included too. When we say the whole board, we mean the whole board.
With the free plan you can save up to 50 pins. Go Pro if you need more.
Keep your download organised
- Full-resolution grabs. You get the largest image Pinterest has stored.
- Section folders. If your board uses Sections, the ZIP mirrors that structure.
- Private boards. As long as you’re logged into Pinterest, Unpinned can fetch private or collaborator boards you already have access to.
- ZIP naming. The zip uses the board name plus your username.
Why Unpinned?
Random “free” extensions often want your data, or €15 a month, and still choke on large boards. Unpinned Pro has unlimited board size. See how we compare in Unpinned vs Pin Toolbox.
FAQ
Do I need to paste the board URL?
No. Once the extension is installed, just open the board in Pinterest and click Unpinned → Download board.
Does it work for private boards?
Yes, as long as you have access to the board in your logged-in Pinterest session.
Are video Pins included?
Yes. We fetch the original .mp4 files and bundle them in the ZIP. To download a video pin, add it to a board first, then download that board.
Is this legal?
Saving pins for personal reference is generally accepted; republishing someone else's work requires permission. Always check licenses.
What browsers are supported?
Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox.
