## 🧩 How to Download an Entire Pinterest Board (Step-by-Step)

### Step 1 — Install SortPin

[**Install SortPin (Free) →**](https://sortpin.com). Full guide: [How to Install SortPin](/getting-started/how-to-install-sortpin.com-extension.md).

### Step 2 — Open the Pinterest Board

Navigate to any public Pinterest board you want to download. Examples:

* Your own board
* Someone else's public board
* Group / collaborative boards you have access to

### Step 3 — Start Auto-Scroll Collection

Open SortPin → click the **auto-scroll button** with a **12-second interval**.

SortPin will:

* 🔄 Automatically scroll through the board
* 📥 Collect data for every pin
* ⏱️ Wait 12s per scroll for Pinterest to load

> ☕ **Grab a coffee** — this can take 2-15 minutes for large boards (100-1000+ pins).

### Step 4 — Filter What You Want

Once collection is done, filter by:

* 🖼️ Images only
* 🎬 Videos only
* 🎨 GIFs only
* 📖 All content types

### Step 5 — Bulk Download

Click **"Download All"** → SortPin saves every file to a folder.

Alternatively:

* **Export CSV** — get a spreadsheet of all pin URLs, titles, descriptions, save counts
* **Download selected** — pick specific pins after scanning

## ⏱️ How Long Does a Board Download Take?

Based on board size (12-second scroll interval):

| Board Size  | Estimated Time |
| ----------- | -------------- |
| 50 pins     | \~2 minutes    |
| 100 pins    | \~4 minutes    |
| 300 pins    | \~10 minutes   |
| 500 pins    | \~15 minutes   |
| 1,000+ pins | \~30+ minutes  |

> 💡 **Speed up:** If your internet is fast, reduce the interval to 10 seconds. Do NOT go below 10s — Pinterest may rate-limit or flag the activity.

## 📱 Can I Bulk-Download a Board on Mobile?

**Not directly on iPhone/Android** — Chrome extension isn't available on mobile.

**Workaround:**

1. Use the Chrome extension on desktop to bulk-download the board
2. Transfer the folder to your phone via Google Drive, iCloud, or AirDrop

For **single pin downloads on mobile**, use the [Telegram Bot](/features/telegram-bot-pinterest-images-video-and-story-downloader.md).

***

## 🛠️ Troubleshooting

### "Board download stopped halfway"

* Pinterest may have rate-limited your session. Wait 10 minutes, then resume
* Increase the scroll interval to 15-20 seconds

### "Can't download from a private board"

You must be **logged into Pinterest** with access to that private board. SortPin only sees what your browser sees.

### "Some pins are missing from the download"

Pinterest sometimes hides pins behind lazy-loading. Restart the auto-scroll from the top of the board.

### "Board download is very slow"

* Check your internet speed
* Close other Chrome tabs to free RAM
* See: [SortPin displaying data slowly](/displaying-data-slowly.md)
