An all-in-one userscript that makes Pinterest actually good.
Requires a userscript manager like Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari.
This script has declutter tools, but it is not a full ad blocker. For the best results, use it with uBlock Origin.
Click the button above, then confirm the install in your userscript manager.
Pinterest Power Menu adds the Pinterest features that should have been there already. It improves image quality, fixes downloads, adds one-click image and video downloading, supports reverse image search, translates visible text, fixes awkward media sizing, filters AI-generated content, and gives you toggles to hide the Pinterest clutter you do not want.
Most features work on the mobile Pinterest website too. A few are desktop-only, like the right-click image menu and custom logo controls, because they depend on desktop layout or mouse behavior.

Pinterest often loads scaled-down thumbnails. Original Quality rewrites Pinterest image URLs to request the original file when possible, with a high-resolution fallback when the original is unavailable.
Pinterest's built-in downloads can save compressed or badly named files. Download Fixer grabs the best available file URL, checks the real file format, and saves it with a cleaner name.
Board Downloader adds a download action to board pages. It scrolls the current board, finds pins, skips the "More Ideas" section, and downloads original-quality images when available. If an original is unavailable, it automatically falls back to the next-best size so you still get the largest version Pinterest allows.
Filenames use the pin title when Pinterest exposes one, with a Pin - 12345678 style fallback when it does not.
The board download menu gives two choices:
- Download All — save each pin as a separate file.
- Download All as ZIP — collect all pins into a single
.ziparchive named after the board and download that one file.
If you enable Track Downloaded Pins, you also get Download New and Download New as ZIP to fetch only pins that were not saved before.
Enable Convert WebP to PNG to re-encode WebP image downloads as PNG before saving. This is useful for tools or workflows that prefer PNG files, or when Pinterest serves the original image as WebP.
Quick Download adds a Pinterest-style Download button to pin closeups. It downloads images and videos with one click, using the actual Pinterest video file when video data is available. It grabs video pins through the same Download button when Pinterest exposes the video data.
On a carousel pin it downloads the currently visible carousel image and does not advance carousel slides while saving. The desktop pin-card Download button is also independent of Share, so hiding Share does not remove quick card downloads.
On desktop, right-click Pinterest media to:
- Copy original media
- Copy media URL
- Open media in a new tab
- Save the original file
The Reverse Image Search button opens a small provider menu for the focused closeup image.
| Provider | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Opens an image-URL search page | |
| Yandex | Opens an image-URL search page |
| SauceNAO | Copies the focused Pinterest image URL and opens SauceNAO for manual paste |
| TinEye | Copies the focused Pinterest image URL and opens TinEye for manual paste |
For SauceNAO and TinEye the script will copy the focused Pinterest image URL to your clipboard so you can paste it on the provider page. It uses direct Pinterest image URLs and does not upload image files itself.
GIF Hover Play keeps GIF pins still until you hover them. Only one hover GIF plays at a time.
Auto-Play Visible GIFs plays GIFs while they are visible and pauses them when they leave the viewport.
Auto-plays currently visible videos (muted) and pauses them when you scroll away. This may not work with every video.
Auto-replays closeup videos instead of showing Pinterest's "Watch again" prompt every time a video ends.
Remove Videos collapses video pins from feeds while leaving GIFs alone. It looks for real Pinterest video sources instead of treating every animated-looking pin as a video.
The Translate group can automatically translate visible Pinterest text:
- Pin titles
- Pin descriptions
- Expanded visible comments
Titles, descriptions, and comments each have their own toggle, so you can choose exactly what gets translated.
The target language defaults to your browser language, but you can change it in settings. If Google reports that the text is already in your selected language, the script leaves it alone.
Title display modes:
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Translated only | Replaces the visible title and stores the original in metadata/tooltip |
| Original + translated | Shows the translated title with the original beneath it |
Translation uses Google's unofficial translate.googleapis.com/translate_a/single?client=gtx endpoint. When translation is enabled, the visible text being translated is sent to Google.
The Hide AI Content toggle filters AI-generated pins from feeds. Detection is heuristic — the script inspects pin titles, alt text, descriptions, and Pinterest's own AI disclosure labels rather than analyzing image pixels.
| Tier | What it matches |
|---|---|
| Conservative | Pinterest's own AI labels and explicit #aigenerated / "ai generated" text |
| Balanced | Conservative + common tool names (Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, "ai art") |
| Aggressive | Balanced + loose "ai" tokens and prompt-like phrasing |
A custom keywords field lets you add comma-separated words that augment the selected tier. Any pin whose title or auto-label contains one of your keywords is also hidden.
Hide by Keywords lets you block pins by words in their title or auto-generated alt label. Enter a comma-separated list in the keyword field — any pin whose title or aria-label contains a match is hidden from feeds and search.
This filter runs on the same observer as Hide AI Content, so both can be active at once without extra overhead.
Hide Comments by Keywords collapses individual comments that contain phrases you define. Enter a comma-separated list of phrases; the script checks both the original comment text and any auto-translated text, and hides the comment before it can be read.
Use specific phrases rather than broad single words to avoid false positives. The filter only hides comments — it does not hide the pin itself or the whole comment section.
Hide by Pin ID lets you hide specific pins by entering their numeric Pinterest IDs. Add one or more comma-separated pin IDs in the text area; any matching pin is removed from feeds and search results.
Open a pin's native "More options" (⋯) menu and choose Hide pin / Unhide pin to populate the list automatically, or enter IDs manually.
Hide Seen Pins automatically removes pins you have already opened from feeds and search. Once a pin closeup has been viewed, that pin ID is remembered and hidden wherever it appears again.
This works independently of Hide by Pin ID and the other content filters.
The Declutter group is enabled by default. It removes or collapses noisy Pinterest modules without leaving huge empty gaps where possible.
It can clean up:
- Sponsored pins
- Shoppable pins
- Product cards and product-price pins
- Shop-by banners
- Quiz posts
- "Explore featured boards" promos
- "Still shopping?" prompts
- Ad-blocker modals
- Download upsell popovers
- Explore tab notification badges
- Removed or unavailable pins
- Shop Similar sections
- Shop the Look modules and product carousels
- Curated spotlight carousels on search pages
Declutter options:
| Toggle | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Hide Shop The Look Modules | Off | Collapses Shop the Look shopping modules and product carousels |
| Hide Search Support Advisory | Off | Collapses Pinterest's search support advisory cards when Declutter is also on |
| Hide Shop Posts | Off | Collapses pins linked to known shop domains such as Amazon, Etsy, eBay, TeePublic, Redbubble, and AliExpress when Declutter is also on |
New settings are saved the first time they appear. After that, your choices stay saved unless a setting is removed or intentionally reset later.
The Hide UI Elements group lets you remove smaller Pinterest controls independently. It is split into two compact sub-menus so the list stays manageable:
| Toggle | What it hides |
|---|---|
| Hide Visit Site | "Visit site" and external-link buttons |
| Hide Updates Bell | The notifications/updates bell in the navigation |
| Hide Messages Button | The Messages/chat button in the navigation |
| Hide Share Button | Closeup Share/Send buttons, mobile share sheet contents, provider buttons, and copy-link share controls |
| Hide React Button | The full React heart slot in closeup action rows |
| Hide Reaction Count | Only the numeric reaction count |
| Hide Upload Image Button | The Lens upload image button in Pinterest search (desktop only) |
| Hide Search Image Button | The Search image visual-search overlay button |
| Hide Search Suggestions | One-bar related search suggestion chips and mobile "Ideas you might love" suggestion cards |
| Hide View Larger Button | The View larger/media viewer overlay button |
| Hide More Options Button | Closeup More actions/ellipsis buttons |
| Hide Reverse Image Search Button | The custom Reverse Image Search button |
| Toggle | What it hides |
|---|---|
| Hide Comment Button | Only the Comments button in closeup action rows |
| Hide Comment Section | Comment sections and comment input areas |
| Hide Comment Emoji Button | The emoji picker in the comment composer |
| Hide Comment Sticker Button | The sticker picker in the comment composer |
| Hide Comment Photo Button | The photo picker in the comment composer |
| Hide "See More Like This" Popup | The proactive outreach flyout that appears over pins asking "See more like this?" |
The hide rules target known Pinterest areas so they do not wipe out unrelated mobile layouts.
The Customize group contains desktop-only appearance tweaks and an experimental background theme.
Replace Pinterest's home logo with your own image URL.
Controls:
- Logo image URL
- Logo size
- Circular crop toggle
By default, custom logos render as a circular 32px image with object-fit: cover, which keeps square images closer to Pinterest's normal round logo button. Non-circle mode uses contained square rendering.
Replace each main navigation button with your own image. This is hidden on mobile because it can be laggy or unreliable on touch devices.
Apply a custom solid background color behind Pinterest's content. The theme is off by default so Pinterest keeps its native look until you enable it. Choose from a few built-in color presets or enter your own hex color code. This feature is experimental and is marked Beta while it is refined.
The Statistics group keeps optional all-time counters of what the script has done for you. It sits at the bottom of the settings panel and is collapsed by default.
Each counter is opt-in and off by default. Turning a counter on both starts counting and reveals its running total; turning it off stops counting. Nothing is tracked until you enable it.
| Counter | What it counts |
|---|---|
| Ads Blocked | Sponsored / promoted pins removed by Declutter |
| AI Content Blocked | Likely AI-generated pins hidden by Hide AI Content |
| Images Downloaded | Image files saved by the script |
| Videos Downloaded | Video files saved by the script |
| Comments Translated | Comments auto-translated |
Totals are cumulative across sessions and saved like your other settings. A Reset button clears every counter back to zero.
The Backup & Restore group lets you save and restore your Pinterest Power Menu data. This is useful when your userscript engine or browser does not persist storage across updates, or when moving settings to another device.
A backup includes:
- All settings
- Hidden pin IDs
- Board download history
Choose Export to download a JSON backup file, Import to load a backup file (hold Shift while clicking Import to merge instead of replace), or Copy to copy the backup JSON to your clipboard.
Click the gear button in the bottom-right corner of Pinterest to open Pinterest Power Menu settings.
Settings are grouped into:
- Essentials
- Media Playback
- Downloads
- Content Filtering
- Tools
- Declutter Options
- Translate
- Customize
- Hide UI Elements
- Statistics
- Debugging
- Backup & Restore
The settings panel and floating gear button always use a dark appearance.
Most settings apply immediately without a page reload. Settings are saved through your userscript manager with GM_setValue / GM_getValue.
The script also includes a small "What's new" popup for major version highlights. It appears once per script version unless you choose Never show me updates.
- Install a userscript manager such as Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey.
- Click the install button near the top of this README.
- Confirm the install in your userscript manager.
- Visit pinterest.com.
- Open the gear button in the bottom-right corner to adjust settings.
Manual install:
- Open
PinterestPowerMenu.user.js. - Copy the script contents.
- Create a new userscript in your manager.
- Paste the script and save it.
After installation, visit Pinterest and open the gear button in the bottom-right corner. Most options apply immediately, so you can turn downloads, declutter tools, translation, reverse image search, and UI hiding on or off without reloading.
Reverse image search and download buttons appear on supported pins, closeups, and media surfaces when their settings are enabled. If Pinterest changes its layout, refresh the page first, then check the troubleshooting notes below.
- The script only runs on Pinterest pages matched by the userscript metadata.
- Settings are stored locally by your userscript manager through
GM_setValueandGM_getValue. - Download and media features may request Pinterest-hosted media with
GM_xmlhttpRequestso files can be saved at the best available quality. - Reverse image search opens the selected provider with the current image URL; some providers may receive that image URL when you choose them.
- The script does not ask for passwords, API keys, tokens, cookies, or extra accounts beyond your normal Pinterest session.
Run the local smoke test with npm:
npm testOptional syntax checks:
npm run checkYou can also run the nav-selector verification directly:
npm run test:selectors- If the install button does not open your userscript manager, install Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey first, then try again.
- If a feature does not appear, make sure it is enabled in settings and refresh Pinterest.
- If downloads or reverse image search do not work, check whether another extension or ad blocker is blocking Pinterest media URLs.
- If the layout looks wrong after a Pinterest update, disable declutter or hide-UI options one at a time to find the changed selector.
- If an old version keeps loading, force-update the script from your userscript manager dashboard.
- Enable Debug Logging in settings and check the browser console for diagnostic messages when a feature is not working as expected.
- Runs at
document-startso image and declutter behavior can start early - Uses vanilla JavaScript with no external runtime dependencies
- Uses
GM_xmlhttpRequestfor binary downloads - Uses
GM_setValueandGM_getValuefor settings persistence - Uses
GM_setClipboardfor manual reverse-search URL copy flows - Handles Pinterest's single-page navigation through history and
popstatehooks - Uses scoped CSS and targeted observers instead of broad page-wide polling
- Uses
IntersectionObserver, visible-node checks, small request queues, caching, and timeouts for translation work - Keeps mobile closeup action buttons scoped to the mobile action row
- Avoids broad class-only selectors that can hide mobile page roots
