How to use PinBoard

Paste a URL, click download. That's it.

Opening PinBoard for the First Time

PinBoard isn't code-signed yet, so your OS will show a security warning on first launch. This is normal for independent apps — you only need to do this once.

1
Try to open PinBoard

Double-click PinBoard after installing. A warning will appear saying "PinBoard" can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software (or similar). Click Done — don't move it to Trash.

macOS Gatekeeper warning — click Done
2
Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security

Open System Settings (Apple menu → System Settings). Go to Privacy & Security and scroll down to the Security section at the bottom. You'll see: "PinBoard" was blocked to protect your Mac.

macOS System Settings — Privacy & Security — Open Anyway
3
Click "Open Anyway"

Click Open Anyway, then enter your admin password if prompted. PinBoard will launch — future opens work normally with no extra steps.

macOS confirmation dialog — click Open Anyway
Older macOS: On macOS Sonoma (14) and earlier, you can right-click the app → click Open → then click Open again in the dialog. This shortcut was removed in macOS Sequoia (15).
1
Run the installer

Double-click the PinBoard Setup.exe. Windows Defender SmartScreen will show a blue warning: "Windows protected your PC" — this appears because the app is new and doesn't have a reputation with Microsoft yet.

Windows SmartScreen warning — click More info
2
Click "More info" → "Run anyway"

Click the More info link on the warning. A Run anyway button will appear — click it. The installer will proceed normally. You only need to do this once.

Windows SmartScreen — click Run anyway
Alternative: If you don't see "More info", right-click the .exe → Properties → check Unblock under Security at the bottom → click Apply, then run the installer again.
1
Download the AppImage

Download the .AppImage file from the releases page. You can save it anywhere you like — no installation needed.

2
Make it executable

Right-click the file → PropertiesPermissions tab → check Allow executing file as program. Or open a terminal and run: chmod +x PinBoard-*.AppImage

3
Double-click to run

That's it — double-click the AppImage to launch PinBoard. No installer, no setup. Works on most distributions including Ubuntu, Fedora, and others.

Tip: Move the AppImage to a permanent folder (like ~/Applications) to keep things tidy. It runs from wherever you put it.

Downloading a Board

1
Paste the board URL

Copy the URL of any Pinterest board and paste it into PinBoard. Any format works — full URLs, short links, or just username/board-name.

https://pinterest.com/username/board-name/
2
Click "Load Board"

PinBoard will automatically find the board, load all pins, and show you a breakdown of images, GIFs, and videos.

3
Download

Pick a category (images, GIFs, or videos) and hit download. Everything gets saved to a folder on your computer. You can also download individual files one by one.

Private Boards Pro only

For your own private or secret boards, just sign in to Pinterest directly inside PinBoard. No copying cookies, no DevTools — just a normal login.

1
Click "Sign in to Pinterest"

A real Pinterest login page opens inside the app. Sign in with your email and password as you normally would — 2FA and captcha work too.

2
Paste your private board URL

Once signed in, paste any private board URL and click Load Board. PinBoard will use your session to access it.

3
Download as usual

Everything works the same — pick a category, hit download. Your session stays active so you don't need to sign in again until it expires.

Privacy: PinBoard opens Pinterest's real login page inside the app. Your email and password go directly to Pinterest — we never see or store your credentials. Only session cookies are kept locally on your device.
