Saves visual web references as Pins organized into boards, with social discovery and sharing.
Meet Pinterest
Pinterest organizes visual references into boards, allowing users to save images associated with webpages and revisit their source links. It is useful for inspiration-led collections such as design, recipes and project ideas, rather than for preserving a complete offline copy of every saved article.
The service is hosted and available through web and mobile apps. Its help center documents saving from websites and browser capture; users should distinguish a Pin saved to an online board from an image downloaded to their device and review privacy settings for any sensitive collection.
