Pinterest on iPhone: what's different
Pinterest serves three Pin types that behave very differently. Static image Pins resolve to a single full-resolution JPEG (often 1000x1500 portrait) — SnapTok serves the original, not Pinterest's thumbnail. Video Pins return an HD MP4 in the original aspect ratio (commonly 9:16 or 1:1). Idea Pins are multi-slide stories that can mix images and short video clips; SnapTok unpacks each slide as its own download. The share sheet on iPhone produces pin.it short URLs by default — those resolve cleanly inside SnapTok. On iOS 17 and 18, Safari sometimes inlines video Pins as previews instead of triggering a download; tap the share icon in the preview and choose Save Video to push the MP4 into your Camera Roll, or Save to Files to keep a clean re-share copy. Portrait image Pins keep their original aspect ratio when imported into Photos — iOS does not auto-crop them.

Troubleshooting Pinterest downloads on iPhone
- pin.it short link won't open in SnapTok
- SnapTok unwraps pin.it server-side. If you see 'not found', the Pin was deleted or made private — paste a different Pin URL.
- Image Pin saves as a small thumbnail
- SnapTok always offers the Original size — make sure you tap the Original variant, not Web (used for re-pinning).
- Idea Pin only saves one slide
- SnapTok lists each slide separately. Scroll the result list and tap Download on each slide.
- Video Pin plays inline instead of downloading
- Tap the share icon inside the Safari player, then Save Video or Save to Files.
