How to Download a GIF from Pinterest

  1. 1

    Copy the pin link

    Find the animated pin and copy its link with Share → Copy link.

  2. 2

    Paste and preview

    The animation plays in the result, so you can check it before saving.

  3. 3

    Save GIF or MP4

    Download the original GIF, or the MP4 version that is many times smaller.

Save Pinterest GIFs as GIF or MP4 in the Best Quality

When a pin holds a real GIF file, FromPin.net downloads that very file, frame for frame. Next to it you will find an MP4 made from it: the same animation at a fraction of the size, handy for messengers and phones.

Some animations are stored by Pinterest as short silent videos. For those you get the MP4 right away and a Convert to GIF button that turns the clip into a looping GIF.

How to Save GIFs from Pinterest on iPhone and Android

On Android, the GIF goes to Downloads and plays in your gallery. On iPhone, open the downloaded GIF in Files, tap Share and choose Save Image — it will keep moving in Photos.

How to Download GIFs from Pinterest on PC, Laptop and Mac

Copy the pin address in your browser, paste it here and press Download. The GIF is saved to your Downloads folder and opens in any browser or image viewer.

Why Does a Pinterest GIF Download as a Video?

To save traffic, Pinterest converts many uploaded GIFs into short MP4 clips, so its own save button gives you a video. FromPin.net shows which one the pin holds and lets you convert the clip back into a GIF with one click.

Why Can't I Download a GIF from Pinterest?

Either the pin is gone or secret, or the animation is hosted elsewhere (for example on GIPHY) and Pinterest only shows a still. If converting a long clip fails, the GIF would simply be too heavy — pick a shorter stretch in the GIF maker.
