ABOUT THIS TOOL

What Is Pinterest Pin Preview?

Pinterest Pin Preview is a free visual planning tool that shows how your Pin may appear on a Pinterest-style pin detail screen, home feed, search results, and profile grid. Customize a title, description, account details, board, and destination link, then add your own vertical image or video.

Switch between mobile and desktop views to check how your Pin communicates at different sizes. Previews are illustrative: Pinterest may crop media, arrange cards, or change its interface differently across devices and over time.

HOW IT WORKS

Preview a Pin in Three Steps

01

Add Your Pin Content

Enter the Pin title, description, creator name, and website URL. Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image, or select Video Pin to use a local MP4 or WebM video.

02

Compare Placements

Choose Pin Detail, Home Feed, Search Results, or Profile Grid. Use the crop guide to understand how a long image could look in a smaller card.

03

Export Your Preview

Check the layout in mobile and desktop sizes, select a light or dark appearance, and download a PNG mockup for review.

PLACEMENTS

Compare Pinterest Pin Placements

Pin Detail vs Home Feed

Pin Detail gives your image and description more space. In the Home Feed, your Pin competes with other vertical cards, so a recognizable subject and readable design are especially useful.

Search Results vs Profile Grid

Search Results place a Pin among visually similar ideas. Profile Grid lets you assess whether its cover feels consistent with other content and your creator identity.

IMAGE GUIDE

Pinterest Pin Sizes & Preview Guide

Pin Format Recommended Size Best For
Standard Pin 1000 × 1500 px (2:3) Home Feed and Search Results
Square Pin 1000 × 1000 px (1:1) Square graphics and visual content
Tall Pin 1000 × 2100 px (1:2.1) Long vertical designs that may be cropped
Video Pin 1080 × 1920 px (9:16) Vertical video content

Important: A 2:3 aspect ratio is a practical starting point for standard Pinterest Pins. Taller images may be cropped in feeds, and actual layouts may differ across devices. The crop guide is approximate.
