Good in the past, but terrible updates!. I have been using the Pinterest app for years now, and these updates may be terrible enough for me to finally leave. First of all, the stories/slides function is confusing and difficult to use. If I’m ever swiping through content it’s a hassle to get through these stories that often have nothing to do with what I’ve pinned in the past, which brings me to my next point: the algorithm. I am constantly getting both suggested pins and targeted ads that have nothing to do with any boards or searches I’ve made! My home feed is full of ads that I am not interested in with very little actual content, much of which is irrelevant as well. It seems like the “hide pin” feature doesn’t even do anything to improve my feed. To me, it seems like Pinterest is struggling to remain relevant in the wake of Instagram and TikTok by introducing new features and changing up how content reaches viewers, but I think I speak for the majority of Pinterest users when I say that people don’t use Pinterest in the same way we use other platforms. There’s no need for flash and flair when Pinterest is already a well-designed social media platform with a specific user base in mind, and making these changes just interrupts the way people use the app.

Pinterest is the jack of all trades. So I love love Pinterest and I always have!! But I recently got the iPhone 10 max and now it just constantly freezes up when I’m on Pinterest for a while and my phone doesn’t do this on ANY other app or any other time. So I have no idea why it keeps doing this... but it is pretty aggravating. Other than that though this app is the GREATEST!! I come here for- it used to be just for like crafts and food, but now I have come to use it for makeup ideas, for like if I have a khaki jacket and I want to see what other looks and styles and colors may go with it (that matches what I may have in my closet) I go on here for an idea of what the possibilities are to wear with it. I recently used it to find out what kinds of dresses and outfits to wear to a Christmas party.. so you can get ideas and picture yourself in the clothes, you can have a idea of what you’re looking for locally. And of course this is where I go for beautiful quotes to add on Instagram. Or funny memes even to describe super specific situations 😂 you can use Pinterest to find basically anything! Gift ideas, crafts, DIY, recipes, home decor ideas, outfit ideas, makeup tutorials, if you want a hair cut and you are looking for different styles... like you name it and they have it! Oh yea and Starbucks drinks to try!! That’s my favorite!

great but 1 HUGE problem. I have LOVED pinterest for years and have used it everyday. It is probably the app that I spend the most time on when I’m on my phone. However, I ran into the problem today. About 40 minutes before this happened, I was on pinterest and there was not a single problem. After the 40 minutes passed, I went to check on how my posts were doing. when I clicked on the app, it brought me straight to the log in or sign up page (I always stay logged in so this was really weird). I didn’t think much of it until I tried to log in. It stated that my account was deactivated. It also stated possible reasons why this may have happened. None of those reasons were something that have happened on my account. Let me remind you how much I have on this app. The thing is, when you are setting up your account, you are supposed to put in your real email (but I did not). I didn’t do this because on my previous account I did use it but it wouldn’t let me log in. so I created a new account which is the one I just had this problem on. The reason I am talking about not using my real email on this account is because pinterest stated that it had emailed me and I could contact that if I needed to. So I did not get an email on my real account. I also tried to create a new account but that did not work. I also tried filling a form out trying to get my account back but so far, I haven’t had much luck. I was completely unaware that this was able to happen.

Please stop changing things. I’ve loved the Pinterest app for years, but I’m so tired of the updates ans redesigns. This used to be such an accessible platform for people of all ages and backgrounds, and now it feels like you guys are just pandering to young people (and I say this as someone in her 20s). My feed and searches are littered with stolen TikToks which is just annoying. I like seeing SOME TikToks and other short-form clips mixed in with more traditional posts, but now it’s like 90% of what I’m seeing on my dashboard. Sometimes I search for things and get literally nothing but TikToks, other times I don’t get any, and it just seems like a half-baked pointless algorithm. Can’t we just go on TikTok if we want to look at TikToks? Then there’s the features that keep disappearing even though we were all using them. You took away the option to like pins, and now we can’t post pictures of our tries? I loved that feature. In fact it was one of my favorite parts of using Pinterest, getting to share how things turned out and see how other people did. Why take that away?? And the ADS. By golly it feels like I can’t scroll down an inch without getting an ad. Is anyone reading these reviews? I feel like we’re all saying the same things and nothing ever changes. I miss the old Pinterest. It was better, and I feel confident in saying that because it’s being echoed all around me. Please listen to your user base!

Suggestion to the app developers. I love this app for finding and organizing all sorts of crafts, recipes, home tips, etc. but it is really irritating to continuously have a bar popping up at the top of each webpage asking if I have found what I want. Most of the time I am pulling these sites from my own saved pins so yes, I have found what I wanted because that’s why I use your app, to find what I have saved here. That, and when I am choosing a pin from a search I notice that this question bar loads before the page even loads and takes up part of the page. At that point it’s just annoying to be asked if I found what I wanted because I can’t see the webpage yet and certainly don’t know what is within the page yet to know if I did indeed find what I wanted. Please consider altering how and when you ask your users if they found what they wanted. Maybe the pop-up could be altered to only pop up when a search from the home page is done. Also, maybe change it to pop up 30 seconds after the user clicks a link so they have a chance to see what is on the page before being asked for feedback. Overall, I still love your app and use it all the time. I just want to stop seeing this pop-up every time I open a link I’ve had saved for years. Thank you.

Love the app, but it is not perfect AT ALL .... LOOK i love pinterest, i started using this app regularly in 2020 but dear GOD are there a lot of flaws. A main one that a lot of ppl seem to agree on is the amount of ads... look pinterest we get it y'all have to eat to but there's A LOT of ads, and they overshadow the actual pins since there's so many of em!! Another issue i've had is how i can't customize which boards i wanna see in my home screen.. it's always up to the app to decide which boards will appear in my homescreen. Sometimes it will let me actually click done and it still doesn't appear!! I don't even have the option to remove boards from the homescreen it's rlly annoying ...(idk if this is a glitch on my acc or if it's pinterest doing this). Another MASSIVE issue for me is when the home screen refreshes even though i don't swipe down?? I've lost so many great pins bcuz of this option please remove it.... make it like other social medias where the home screen doesn't refresh unless u swipe down... Also according to others in the reviews, there used to be an option to search up boards by names... whyd u remove it?? that is such a great option?? Also plz let us report people for other things that aren't spam for the love of god.... There are a lot of pretty good updates like the sections update, picking ur board cover update and more, but the flaws are really annoying...

It’s a great app but please stop taking away features!. I’ve used the app for years, and it’s great, but PLEASE stop taking away features. Where you can “try” pins or comment with a photo has been removed, and it’s annoying. One of the original things from Pinterest were that you could “try” things in the comments. Or even just put a specific reaction picture. Seeing people try and recreate crafts and projects or funny reaction pictures feels like it was the point of the comment sections- to discuss the pin. Long story short it’s a feature that shouldn’t have been removed. Aside from that, the updates to the comment sections as a whole haven’t been my favorite. The new “react” feature seems a bit pointless; in the past you could like a comment and it was simple. There was a number of people that liked it and a heart lit up when you liked it. The new feature not only shows other people’s reaction in color- it only changes to “loved” or “helpful” in a dull color, which makes it really hard for people with poor eyesight, dyslexia, etc to discern which comments they have reacted to (since they are already in color) The helpful option as opposed to the loved option makes sense, but it seems more trouble that it’s worth. In short, the lack of commenting with pictures and the reaction mechanics need work. Otherwise, it’s a great app.

Tired of my home feed refreshing all the time. I’ve never made a review before because I didn’t care enough to before. But I have so much dedication to Pinterest, my issues with the updates have begun affecting my attitude for the app. I’ve been on Pinterest for probably a decade and no update has me more upset than the constant refreshing of the home page. I use all the platforms so I know that if you change from the home feed to your profile or to the search tab back to the home feed, the home feed automatically refreshes... when I even open the app sometimes I see a pin right away that I’d pin but for some reason it refreshes!! This is so irritating. Please fix this to wear it only updates the Home Screen if you pull down the feed from the top for a second. Like Twitter. You can’t even scroll through the feed sometimes without it randomly updating. Also the ads Pinterest.. come on. They’re every third pin! I get you have to pay the bills but more often than not your ads are irrelevant to my search. Speaking of searching, why is it that when I search one thing my home feed will suddenly be filled with that one search? I didn’t follow the topic, I didn’t follow a new board, I don’t care to see it on the home feed I have sort of curated myself. This has been a lot of complaints and my rating is low so that you get how irritated I am. But any other time you’d get a 5/5. I love you Pinterest, rarely change.

Having an Irritating Issue. I have use Pinterest for a while now. And I recently started having this problem, and by recently I mean today. I came here to look and see if anyone else was having this problem and I saw a lot of reviews discussing other various issues many others are facing. I am myself and having a unique one and I haven’t found a review on it yet, so I decided to write one. I have not yet found out how to fix it and it’s really irritating. Basically whenever I click on a pin, whether it’s when I’m looking to save it or when I’m just going to have a closer look it only brings up a page titled “More Like This” and the pin I was looking for is nowhere to be seen so I can’t take a closer look or even just see like who made it or who posted it. it’s really annoying as a writer I like looking at the smaller details and making sure that I can see everything that’s going on and just being able to collect my ideas, this is really agitating. The only way for me to even save the pin is to press down and hold on it but then when I go to my account to look at it, it’s still pops up the “More Like This page”. On all my boards, all my pins, and even one I don’t have saved. I’ve tried closing out my apps, I’ve tried shutting down my device but nothings working. This needs to be fixed and looking at the amount of other problems people have been talking about, something’s really wrong . Please fix this.

Can only tell tech support about listed problems. Pinterest is pretty good unless something isn't working right, but just try to tell them something is wrong if it doesn't happen to be one of the very few problems they've decided to list on their help page. Apparently, Pinterest thinks everything is perfect and any difficulties are user problems because the available options are only about how to use it right. There seems to be no email address, etc. to which to send problems that they don't want to hear about. Well, too bad. Here's a maddening problem: If you are viewing anything that has to do with Taste of Home recipes after a minute or so a T of H ad will appear on the left and a larger one on the right. Together these block out a significant part of the screen. (I'm using an iPad 2 Air with iPadOS 14.2). You can close the ad on the left by touching the X in the upper right hand corner and it goes away completely. However, the larger one on the right simply turns off the ad and leaves a big white rectangle where the ad used to be, which continues to obliterate the same amount of the page as the ad did. There's no way to get rid of the white box. This does appear to be a problem with the app since the ads don't even appear on the T of H web page. Drives me crazy...almost as crazy as not being able to find a way to report the problem!

Used to be my favorite app.. but now i can’t even get into it!. I got pinterest back in 2019 and started a account. i had many memories and boards and things saved. Well a week ago, pinterest deactivated both my accounts since they were linked. I Lost all access to my pinterest, board and saved. i cannot create a new account bc it doesn’t allow you if you are using the same email. now i have nothing. no way to go into pinterest, no way to see my old accounts. my personal account had so many pins and my business account have over 28k followers. i was devastated. and it’s very common. So many other have lost their account due to pinterest newly deactivating accounts. they didn’t even warn me. MY ACCOUNT WAS JUST DEACTIVATED OUT OF THE BLUE. no email to ask me to get rid of pins that went “against community guidelines” or anything. i lost everything. 5 years of pins SAVED 😣 i sent a request for wrongful termination but they haven’t responded and it’s been 7 days. Pinterest was such a positive place where i could save ideas and share ideas, now it’s not what it was like. i’m really upset. i lost my accounts, my pins and my favorite app. if you could somehow create a way to let people sign up for more than one account on the same email, that would be great! or just not deactivate so many accounts. tons of my friends lost their accounts too!

Why have you done this ?. This app used to be perfectly functional but now it is completely dysfunctional . The purpose of Pinterest is to save “pins” and sort them into “boards” so that you may have an organized place to save various pictures/ links of different themes . Now , every pin you save automatically saves to something called “profile” and if you want to sort it into a specific board you have to go out of your way to change it which is a huge pain . In addition , you are no longer allowed to look at your boards so even if you sort your pins into them you’re only allowed to look at the pins all mixed together in an big ol’ mess . On top of that , now whenever you search for anything it automatically searches for only things that are for sale and you have to manually change it to search the whole of Pinterest . I have spent so much time struggling to find pins I was searching for only to realize it was searching in the “shopping“ tab and that was why I couldn’t find anything . So , essentially they took away the core purposes of the app for no good reason . When will companies start to understand that corporate greed is not going to make them money and is instead the best way to drive your business into the ground ? Please just put this app back to the way it was .

A huge problem. Me and my friends absolutely LOVE this app. We’re always checking out each others boards, sharing pins, etc. However there’s recently been a huge issue that’s sprung up, and despite looking all over the web, no one has said a word about it. This is something me and my friends are all experiencing, so I know it’s not just me. Firstly, whenever I’ve tried to see my followers so I can go to my friends’ profiles quickly, I’m greeted with that spinning button that just keeps going. They never load, but that’s not the worst issue. The worst part is that some of my friends’ profiles appear to have been completely ERASED from the app? Yet I’ve seen them scrolling and I know their accounts are still active, but they don’t appear in my following. It says I’m following 9 people, but only 5 show up. Their accounts are not private. To one of my friends, I don’t show up for him while he doesn’t show up for me. We haven’t blocked each other. Whenever we try to send each other’s accounts through links, we’re greeted with an error message. I’ve updated the app and it’s still not fixed. Pinterest is a special app for all of us, and if I can’t even see some of my friends’ ideas, it’s just a huge bummer.

Unfixed issues. So I have had the Pinterest app for about four or five years. For a while everything was good, everything worked and I didn’t have many problems. However, recently a problem has popped up that seems unable to be fixed. I am unable to follow anybody, I can unfollow people but for some reason when I go into somebody’s profile and hit the follow button it lights up and tells me that I am unable to follow the person. But when I hit the back button and go back in I am not following them anymore. Contacting Pinterest support proved to be a hassle as I either got a bit or a supposedly real person that was talking about issues on my pins that had nothing to do with the original problem at all. I even tried all the tips given, deleting app cache didn’t work, unfollowing pins and boards did not work and uninstalling and then reinstalling the app did not work. I was honestly about to just give up when I finally got a real person and they said that they were working on it and that it would take a while. I have not heard anything back since and even after multiple app updates the problem is still there. So yes Pinterest has a ton of pins and stuff but when you encounter an actual problem it is almost not worth it to try and contact support because either you get an unhelpful bot that gives you tips you already did. Very rarely do you get somebody real, it took me ten tries to get a real person

Bring back “Search By Board”!!. I’ve used Pinterest for years and love the ability to be able find ideas & inspiration! I mainly use the mobile version of Pinterest because of how smooth and effortless it is (along with the fact I’m always on my phone!) and I find that just searching for terms doesn’t yield varied results, so about 90% of my time I search things and select “view by board” to browse the collections other people have made! Being able to see other people’s “finds” or their own uploads is a perfect way to fill up my own boards. If I wanted to search for a certain aesthetic or look for certain types of recipes for example, how else would I find good boards to follow so that I can see their posts in my feed? However, when I last updated it, the feature that allowed us to search by board on mobile is gone!! I can’t even hit a picture and be able to trace it to the boards it shows up on. All the pins on my main feed I can’t even see where they came from. I expand my results not by hoping Pinterest’s own algorithms pick up what they think I want to see, but by what boards and pinners I follow!! Please bring this back! The fun of Pinterest is in cultivating all kinds of resources or pictures in one place, what good is that if I can’t even have the option to view the ones others have made?

This used to be my favorite app!. Like the title says, I absolutely loved the old Pinterest. The update last year maybe made it a whole lot harder to navigate. I was accustomed to searching for boards so that I could easily follow other people who shared my very specific interests, but now that option has been gone for months! I’ve been meaning to write this review since then, but this newest update from a few days ago expedited it. Another of my main issues is the shopping aspect. In the older versions, it was more geared to crafting/diy/budget ideas. Now, I search for something simple like knitting ideas, and all I get back are shopping suggestions and priced items for sale. And there’s even a shopping section! I understand the need to evolve and bring in new demographics, but I feel that a lot of Pinterest’s original draw and identity has disappeared. Now, it behaves more like an Instagram or Facebook feed, filled with advertisements and shopping. It’s very disappointing to me that Pinterest has become so much like all the other dime-a-dozen social media apps and sites, since I initially fell in love with it years before because it avoided that world I hated. It felt quiet, calm, secluded, like a library or a yarn store, and I could do my own thing with topics I loved across the “board.” I am really, really bummed about all the changes and am considering deleting, which would be a major change. Please, please bring back some of the original features!

Why?! With the ads, no ad free version and now you change the saving options!. I have been so disappointed and frustrated by the ads, especially the video ads! First people who have visual problems there should be a way to at least turn off the motion of the ads, like an accessibility feature! Then before I even scroll down there are three ads a page if not more! I wish there was at least a paid version for people who really dislike the ads taking over Pinterest. This has almost put me over the edge with giving up on this app. Now worst of all you incorporate an unorganized button in the exact spot as the old save button... why?! The entire point of Pinterest is organizing a catalog of things you like. Why create a board that is unorganized and if it’s really for quick saves then MOVE THE BUTTONS! Leave the normal save button when you chose a board then hit save and switch the new “chose a board” button to the QUICK SAVE BUTTON! Don’t change the entire way to save pins based off of this new quick save feature!! Add a button and leave the original way to save untouched. Please at least create an option to turn off quick save option in settings!! Also a paid version for ad free or at very minimum an accessibility feature for vision impaired individuals for the movement of all the video ads!!! Please, please consider this or I’m unfortunately going to have to give up on Pinterest. Thanks for any consideration.

Returned and hope for a return. Thank you for adding back pins section Thank you for adding a choice on auto replay on vids Thank you for blocking porn/spam followers Thank you for stopping the bullying through comment filters Thank you for limiting story pins my feed is now clear of them unless I was to look for them Thank you for giving options in searches Explore/shop/profile this helps a great deal in bypassing shop I personally don’t have any issues with ads because I don’t hit on them and I turn auto play off on vids so I never hear them Anyone can do this What I would still hope for a comeback is board searches not just profiles/pins finding just boards was so exciting for me quick and simple I didn’t have to search through people’s profile to see if they had anything worth following and some have a great deal of boards I also still hope for a comeback is each pin tells you how many times that pin has been saved by the public it let me know that that pin has a link and can be saved and not blocked I also would hope for a comeback is each pin tells me a person that pinned it so I can be excited about there idea and check that board they saved it too :) Everything else is going well loyal pinner since august 2012

LOVE but a tiny problem. I’ve been using Pinterest since 2015. I absolutely love every new update y’all create, it makes Pinterest such a wonderful, clean, and creative community. I myself create idea pins, and my tiny creations have reached thousands of people! But this new update it’s getting hard to work with. Me, along with some other Pinterest users, are finding it hard to keep up with the story pins of accounts we follow. When you had the idea pins at the top of the home page, it was great to know which accounts were actively publishing content. I do think that with this update, I have been scrolling a lot more on Pinterest and finding new inspiration but many of my followers can’t find my story pins and same with me! I love Pinterest and I’m going to keep using it however it’s frustrating when I create pins that used to get 1.2k views and now my pins get 196… idk if you’ll even see this or do this but I have a few suggestions. Maybe as we scroll, you can come across the profile of a person you follow as it’s own pin- that way people will know that account has new content. Or go back to have the little circles at the top of the homepage, but only put the accounts with the most recent posts. Then you would have to scroll and come across older posts. Idk if this is even possible, but I thought I might as well try 😁 anyways thank you all for so much you do and always sparking my creativity :) - Lily (@moving_mountains)

I love the app but I can’t stand the updates. Ive been using Pinterest for about 6 years (off and on). Back when I first started using it me and my mom would find birthday party ideas and things like that but as Ive grown I continued to use it to feed into my current interests. I have been using it to find references for my fan art drawings and used to be able to comment under the pin with photos and videos and share what I created using the pin. It was one of my favorite features of the app and as a teenager that doesn’t use any other social media, I’m disappointed in the numerous updates that have taken away the actual fun out of the app. This is an issue because the app is about inspiration and using other people’s ideas to better your own. But if you can’t show how the idea actually turned out then your less likely to try it. Therefore leading to boredom of the app. I’m not sure the reason this feature was taken away but I do know that it was a big mistake. I hope they put it back in the next update and maybe the A-Z sorter for pins would be nice too? Like how many things are they going to take away- well anyways Pinterest is a great app for sharing your ideas and your creations and if you enjoy that kind of stuff try it that’s why I gave 4 stars. But to Pinterest please stop taking features away so you can add others it gets frustrating when you like something and it’s snatched away from you for no reason.

I love it but.... some stuff has to change.. I used to love Pinterest. As a baker and writer I loved looking through so many recipes and and different posts. I still love the format and everything about the app. But I have tried to post my opinions in the comments, no bad language or anything and Pinterest won’t let me. People are constantly swearing and typing inappropriate stuff but I can’t post my own opinions. I will keep Pinterest because of my hobbies, but it if uncalled for to not allow someone to post something they want or believe in. People are constantly voicing their own opinions but I can’t. It is not up to you to tell me what I can and can’t say, I understand that it is not totally designed for voicing your opinions but if you have a comment section, allow people to say what they want. Just fix the problem more social media platforms are falling into, you can’t stifle everyones voice, it’s not right. Pinterest is an amazing app for anything else, bakers, crafters, and writers or anyone else with hobbies should really enjoy the app. Thank you Pinterest for fueling my imagination and crafting, for years and hopefully more years to come. Just fix the one issue and it will be a five star app, and Pinterest will be unique from everywhere else people go for crafts and posts and whatever hobbies they are into.

This app needs to fix safety issues for minors ASAP. Overall, this app is really great and I love Pinterest. While for a long time Pinterest was mainly for a certain crowd (almost all adults) sharing recipes, crafts, and similar, there’s been a wider variety of content including memes, fandom stuff, tiktoks, etc. which have a much younger crowd. This isn’t a problem in itself, especially since they don’t interact much due to the algorithms. However, some things about this concern me A LOT regarding the safety of kids. I see a lot of kids posting photos and videos of themselves in reaction to content and this has me scared for them. Not just teenagers, but CHILDREN. Really young children. Ive seen so many times kids giving out their age and location in the comments for everyone to see!!! This is dangerous and there isn’t any way to report this either!!! I understand that there is no way to completely prevent kids from being on this app, but there needs to be ways to prevent kids from posting information and photos and videos of themselves in the comments like they are. The ability to react to posts like this is great if it were just adults sharing recipes, but this NEEDS to be addressed. As someone who grew up on the internet unmoderated, I had to discover the hard way how creepy some people are. I was lucky to not have had anything major but I could easily see some creep pretending to be 14 or something and messaging these kids.

Love the app, but not some of the updates. I’ve had this app, and an account, for 8-10 years, and it’s one of my favorite apps! What I love is: -There are tons of pins, covering vast topics, ideas, images, etc. -The boards are pretty easy to search -I can go into my profile, type in some general words, and find what I’m looking for nearly every time. What I don’t like is: -The app refreshes if you leave it to look at something (unless you have one pin up on your screen, then it mostly won’t refresh, except when it’s been too long), which causes you to lose the pin(s) you were looking at (I recall looking at a pin for a door that was flat, round (think a Hobbit-type door, but glass, not wood), and had panels of stained glass that rotated around the circle/away from the lock on the door when you cranked the door handle in order to open said door, and I can’t find it anywhere. I have tried to look and am out of ideas for how to search for it) -When you go to save a pin, the top 3 boards that come up are the most recent ones you’ve pinned to (it used to be that the app anticipated the top 1-3 boards most relevant to the pin you’re trying to pin in that moment) -I have a Screenshot board (that was something added by the app, as an automatic way to save pins when you screenshot them), and now the app doesn’t do it anymore, so I now have to go through all those pins and sort them into their relevant boards

Just a couple things need fixing :). I absolutely love Pinterest, I’ve used it for years. The only reason I’m giving it a 4 instead of 5 stars is that recently (meaning a few weeks ago) I realized I can no longer “try pins”. At first I just thought it was a little glitch but seeing as other people have updated the app and said the option is gone is kind of a bummer. I mean, Pinterest is an idea app and a diy place where you share your ideas and how they turned out with other people. How are you supposed to show how it turned out without the try pin? I’d love it if this feature came back. Another thing that disappointed me was that I saw another review saying the sections inside of boards were taken away? Of course, this review was left a year ago but still, I’ve been hesitant to even update my Pinterest in case this is still happening. I use sections inside all of my boards because sometimes I’ll have a board for my house but I section them off from bedroom, bathroom, etc. and it’d be really difficult to find what I’m looking for if that’s taken away. Anyways, I know I just went on and on about all the things I wish could be fixed but honestly it’s not that much and I really do love Pinterest, it’s my favorite app. :)

Great App, Unsolved Issue. I have used this app for a long time to love it, I used to use it for almost everything. You can find different things for it, like, clothing, food, hairstyles, nail inspo, shoe inspo, almost everything. But then I got this thing a while back about “Teen Safety” something about how your account is private if you’re under 16. Which, I understand, I understand the thing that if you’re a minor then of course, make the account private, but to deactivate a specific BOARD, is petty. It wasn’t used for anything bad, it was just for my friend and me to save random memes that we thought were funny. But then out of the normal Pinterest decided to make it non-accessible. I was shocked and honestly worried that it might lead to my whole account being deactivated, which I then decided to contact them about. And I haven’t been happy with the app since. I got pretty angry with it too. It happened to my friend’s account too. She couldn’t reach my new account or my old one. I wasn’t able to do the same either. It was a really random thing too, we haven’t done anything out of the community guidelines or terms and conditions, and we didn’t break any rules. Then Pinterest decides to do this, it was petty as heck. I didn’t understand it and I still don’t. If my issue isn’t fixed then it isn’t, but if it is then great. Thank you.

Where did the “Like” button go?. I’m all about Pinterest. I love the recipe and meal ideas, the seasonal outfit ideas, the cookie & cake decorating ideas and the ability to find awesome ideas for parties I’m planning. When I first started using Pinterest, years ago, not only could you save a pin, you could click on a little heart and like it. Where did that go? Now, on another person’s board, I saw a little lightbulb in the bottom left of the pin that said to tap and hold for reactions. This is great but when I went into my board to check out my pins it didn’t have that feature. I’d kind of like the option to like a pin again, especially pins personal pins, not just re-pinned things. Will everyone eventually get these reaction buttons? I really hope so. I guess what I’m saying is it would be great if someone saw a pin that was of, say, my own personal content, they would both have the option to “Like” it and to re-pin it. It be nice for the person who’s putting their own content on Pinterest to know if their followers like what they’re pinning. Other than that I think maybe you could slow down on the ads a little. I know Pinterest is free, which is fabulous, but ads popping up more than once or twice during a video is really annoying.

Long time user. I’ve been a regular pinterest user for almost a decade now. I rarely have a day where I don’t check my Pinterest. I mainly use it to curate aesthetics and find inspiration for my life. It’s very soothing and artistic to me, and the only social media I’ll use. However, I feel as though Pinterest has recently gone down hill. There’s an overwhelming amount of ads. To the point of every other pin is an ad. Most of them are irrelevant to me and my feed is no longer aesthetically pleasing, just full of junk. And I’m not opposed to tasteful ads- I’ve even bought multiple products advertised to me on Pinterest that had beautiful ads that matched my interest and weren’t overwhelming. But there’s just too many now and too many pointless ones. It makes Pinterest significantly less enjoyable. I also don’t understand why Pinterest no longer shows you who pinned the pins in your feed, and when you click in you can’t click on the original user who pinned. It’s totally confusing and counterintuitive- I keep trying to click the icons of people to view their profile but I can’t. The best way for me to do it is to scroll through the hundreds of people I follow to find them. It’s a huge pain. Please make peoples profiles clickable from their pins like they used to be. I’m satisfied with most of the other features of this app and glad to be a part of the community!

Used to love it. This used to be one of my favorite apps. I got my husband hooked on it as well. But now it seems that ads are taking over. Too many buyable pins that have nothing to do with anything I’ve ever looked at or saved. And way too much pornography for a site that claims they don’t allow it. I highly doubt that a picture of a naked woman with her legs spread and that links to a xxx site is considered “art”. I agree that in artistic instances nudity would be acceptable, but on a site that I am supposed to be able to hand my phone over to my child to play on, these things shouldn’t be on there. I get that it’s the same risk you run with using the net, but these things show up in home feeds when you’ve never looked at anything remotely close to it. My husband showed me a funny gun meme and as her scrolled through the “more like this” several naked women came up. If the pinning rules aren’t going to be enforced, there should be some sort of family filter you can click on. I’ve also noticed over the past couple days, my husband has a recents tab in his boards page that I don’t have. This is actually pretty handy if I’ve looked at something but didn’t pin. Seems like if I try to go back and find something I’ve seen earlier in the day, it’s impossible to find again. With a few improvements and enforcements it could be better.

Love it but this update??. I love pinterest, I have been using it for years. One of my favorite features was that I could look at pins related to specific boards on the homepage. Why did ya’ll think it was a good idea to swap it for a “watch” section. Not every app has to be like tiktok. The watch section is LITERALLY tiktok. If I wanted to see those videos I would go on tiktok but I don’t because I come on pinterest to look at pretty pictures. I understand some people might like it, but it was just fine the way they showed up in the feed amongst the normal feed instead of having a tiktok only watch section. PLEASE bring back being able to swipe over and see pins related to specific boards. You do not need to be tiktok #2 EDIT: I’m glad to see you brought back the “more ideas” tabs. I wrote my last review in anger after seeing the update because I don’t like change and loved pinterest as it was. I still stand by not liking the watch section. I also don’t like that when you click on a video it brings you to a video scroll feed instead of the way it used to be. I used to watch some videos on this platform, especially to see related pins, but I will no longer be watching any in dislike of the tiktok like feed.

Long-time user but hate some of the updates. I’ve loved Pinterest since a friend got me onto it, it’s perfect for my writing work and image references. I’ve stuck it out through the rough patches cause it’s just that handy. Small things here and there I can live with, but the most recent update has got things going pretty screwy and making it hard to use the mobile app. The most recent update took away the side-scrolling alphabet letter list on the board selection. I have A LOT of boards spread across TWO accounts, and I tend to move very fast when I get on a spree. And when I say a lot, I mean I’ve tapped out at the original board count before and i just keep going up! So you can imagine how time-consuming it is to have to manually scroll through Ever. Single. Board. to find the one I want to pin to. Please bring that back. Also, on the mobile app, the board selection tab while pinning is slippery AF. It’s so incredibly difficult to manually scroll cause the list keeps trying to slide itself closed at the bottom when I scroll up. If I’m trying to access boards not already in the top three selection, just throw the whole list open and keep it in place until the user closes it themselves, don’t let it go trying to close at it scrolls up or not open all the way when I’m trying to scroll down.

Pinterest user since 2011. I can’t imagine not having Pinterest. I could be without all other websites and social media, but the creative side of me needs my Pinterest fix. I’m able to organize all of my ideas which is great for me because my mind runs 90mph with these ideas every day either way. I love my secret boards. I love trying new things. This year I have a new raised garden bed and redoing my front yard. One of my favorite things about it is that I can make Pinterest my MAIN Wishlist/Registry I don’t have to make a bunch of different registries for events... I can add people to a board and pin things from ANY website. So I don’t have to remember all those passwords for those individual sites. (Example: You’re having a baby and want to have a Target Registry, Babies R Us Registry, Buy Buy Baby Registry, etc etc...) Instead of doing them all separately you can just pin all the products you want from those websites directly to ONE BOARD on Pinterest. You can add your friends and family to the board or you can just send them your board link. They can follow the link and look at everything you’ve pinned in one place and make a purchase. You don’t need to create registries anymore. Everything I need is available on Pinterest. Thanks y’all!

Am addicted to this app, but was better before. I love this app and I am honestly on it way to much😅However, I hate that they took away the tried section on pins. We can l No longer post picture or videos in the comments. In my opinion, that was one of the best features. I loved putting my art in there and getting advice and seeing others and giving advice. It’s also fun to see people try singing videos and such. I wasn’t allowed to post and a lot of people are the same way, so that’s a way to share that isn’t actually posting. I understand what issues can occur, such as bad or inappropriate photos, but you can’t really escape that. There’s a reason reporting comments is a thing. Another thing, the home feed is always refreshing without me wanting it to. I will see a pin that looks really interesting and go to tap it but it will refresh randomly without me even swiping down and I lose it forever. Very frustrating. Other than that, I love this app. Edit: each update brings more issues lol. Not the report/edit/delete button on comments is gone. And I keep finding profiles of pedophiles and I try to report but the only option is for spam. I report anyways but I would like more options for reporting profiles like on comments. Still want picture comments back

The new layout is so ugly. I love this app, and have been using it for awhile. But this new update layout is very ugly, it would be great it you guys made it back to its other layout, this new layout feels pointless, and makes it harder to navigate. Edit: Now on top of the bad layout that still has not been reverted, you have gotten rid of the feature to see what boards pins are saved too, which is an awful, awful decision, as now I can’t find boards I like that help me expand my related boards. So now I just have to find profiles and hope they have stuff I like, which should NOT be how I find boards I like. These updates are ruining the app more and more and it’s making me enjoy it less and less. I could get use to the new layout, but taking away the feature to see boards that pins were saved on is crossing the line, you are making this app a hassle to navigate and you won’t even listen to anyone’s feedback no matter how many reviews and emails you get. I’m almost done with this app, I’ve given it much more time to fix than it deserves at this point and you people don’t seem to care to fix it’s horrible problems that YOU cause.

New update ruins people’s hard work. can no longer check out the videos my sister has created, nor can her followers, in fact we can’t even see the names of the profiles we’re following under 16! They barley exist! My sister has worked very hard on her content, taking over an hour to create a video from start to finish. This new update has taken away the joy of posting videos, people no longer being able to view her hard work and ideas. Even though she is set in business account, there is no point in having a business account when they too (under 16) are revealed with the same consequences. In all desperateness, we tried changing the age of her account to 16+, but in the settings she can no longer even change the age! What?! I am not only speaking from the voices of my sister and her friends, but the thousands of young content creators who no longer have a public profile and have no more motive for Pinterest. I acknowledge that Pinterest is caring for the safety of teens and I deeply appreciate it, but this is not the solution. If there isn’t an update soon, her, along with some friends may cease the use of Pinterest and switch over to a platform such as tiktok that allows her to post all of her ideas and creations which bring her much joy. If you have came to the end, I give thanks for your reading. Pleas to reconsider the update.

Disappointed with moves away from original product. Pinterest continues to make more changes that move the app further and further away from why I use it: to find, save, and share ideas. I finally decided to write this review because the primary “+” button now isn’t for pins but for Instragram-like “stories”. Now you have to hunt to find the right “+” button under profile to add a pin from a website. Additionally, users no longer have control to edit the title and description of pins. Just notes to self or comments. I used to use this heavily for describing my modifications to recipes or notes on what I’d like to do on a particular project with my wife. The loss of control is frustrating. Lastly, Instagram’s approach to advertisements is anti-customer. I understand the need to monetize, but PLEASE don’t make the interaction so challenging that it “traps” your users in the ad. Two examples of this: 1) you can’t swipe down to dismiss an ad like you do any other pin - you have to reach up to the top-left of your screen and tap on the small back arrow, and 2) swiping up opens the ad instead of showing similar content - so then you have to tap “done” and the back arrow to get back to normal content. Instead, you should make the interaction/navigation similar to all other content. Your ads are “landmines” and I get so frustrated when I tap on one. Doesn’t have to be that way.

amazing until recently…. i’ve been using pinterest for so long and i spend so much time on pinterest so it’s kinda frustrating because this has never happened before. i upload/post things on my pinterest feed and i never get notifs when someone comments on my stuff so whenever i look randomly that’s when i find them. yesterday i was scrolling through my posts and i noticed i had some comments so i went to go like them and the “liked by creator” never showed up like it usually does. i thought nothing of it and tried highlighting the comment and a message came up on my screen saying “something went wrong on our end. sorry about that.” i replied to the comment and when that person responded to me, i tapped on the notif and it brought up MY post but had a DIFFERENT user name on it when it was MINE. and now whenever i look at what’s supposed to be MY comments, OTHER creators comments show up but again, with MY pictures that i upload. I’ve logged out, deleted the app and reinstalled it and it still continues to do this. i recently uploaded something and when someone commented, i liked their message and the “liked by creator” showed up but it still won’t for my older posts. i tried ignoring it but it’s really frustrating and i hope pinterest fixes this soon. i really don’t want to delete everything and re-upload it or delete my account entirely.

High Praise, but why change the feed on ‘following’ to single pix?. I note the feed for ‘home’ is thankfully the same as before, with multiple pix across the page, but the feed for ‘following’ is single, large format pix., making it difficult to consume many photos for time spent. Please, please change this back! That said, I have been a long-time Pinterest user and have seen it go through a lot of changes. I have to say they have been pretty responsive to requests, overall. You can now opt between suggested pin feed, or feed from people you follow. You can once more arrange boards to suit. You can also choose how you want to view boards, 3 across, 4 across, or a page of small thumbnails. Also, as many Secret boards as you like. Something for everyone. It used to be far more social, as far as associating people with their pins, even when they were re-pinned...although problems sprang up with people being very protective about the artistry of their boards and discouraging people from pinning more than a few pins a day, and so things changed. I agree with many that the promoted pins can be a bit much, and I would prefer not being automatically taken to a site. Still, it is a great app and still allows for lots of creativity and enjoyment.

Unable to report sexual/harmful accounts.. EDIT: (january 21, 2023) When I look through my boards and then hit the go back button, it refreshes and takes me back to the top. Extremely annoying and unnecessary. Please fix this!!!! It almost makes the app unusable. I love this app but i’m rating it one star in hopes this catches the attention of the developers. The amount of accounts popping up that are filled with sexual content, including some accounts that have boards of CHILDREN and the boards have the most horrible sexual titles ever, is horrifying and very concerning. I wish there was a way to report the whole account for sexual content/pedophilia/children in danger, etc… but when i try to it says pinterest ONLY removes accounts that post misleading content and spam or unsolicited commercial messages. I would really love for this app to be a safe space for all, but it seems impossible at this point. There are so many pictures of young girls and children on this app, and when you see the comments it’s full of these perverted accounts and there’s no way to be able to report the account as a whole, only the comment itself, and who knows if that actually does anything to ban the account. Please please please, give us a way to report these accounts for endangerment, explicit content, etc… and let us receive updates on our reports. Pinterest should be safe for everyone.

Over all the stuff that I don’t follow but am forced to look at!. I use to love Pinterest. It was my favorite. I chose what I wanted to look at. Then they started changing things and changing things more and more. Made us have to look at their stupid ads and suggested posts. Now it has gotten to the point to where 90 percent of everything is ads and suggested posts-guess what I don’t want to see what you have suggested. I want to see what I want to see-what I chose to follow. There is no way to remove the crap and even if you report and remove the incessant ones, they just add that many more. Here’s a little tip-I do not want to see and have no interest in pins that are in a foreign language and I have to look at them constantly. So I’m really getting over Pinterest. Add in the fact that I can’t see who pins what anymore-I like seeing when the people I follow that I like have pinned something but now I can’t tell because it’s blank where a user use to be listed. Every update it gets worse and I find myself getting on Pinterest less and less. I am quickly losing my interest in Pinterest. They need to go back to letting people control what they look at. I could understand having some ads but the amount of content on my board that I didn’t follow has gotten way out of control. If it doesn’t get any better and I keep getting pins in foreign languages then I will just quit using it. I hope it improves soon. If not then I will stop using it.

GET READY FOR GARBAGE!. Want an app seems worthwhile but is guaranteed to inundate you with garbage on a daily basis? Pinterest is for you! Just when you think you’ve got a handle on things Pinterest’s algorithms will decide you’re really interested in something completely irrelevant. If you want to follow grown-up subjects like art or graphic design Pinterest will make sure you see nothing but fingernail painting and revolting foods. Interested in architecture? Pinterest has you covered with hundreds of pins showing home-schooling plans and dodgy financial advice. Like book design? You’ll see more hair braiding and weight-loss tips than you can shake a stick at! And the advertising! Always on target. Pinterest knows you’re sure to decide on your next car or make other major financial plans on the basis of companies they promote. You’ll see plenty of pins about vacations you can’t afford and products no sensible person would buy. But don’t bother blocking them (or anything, really) - they’ll be back next week whether you want to see them or not. And the support team TOTALLY has your back! Pinterest takes your concerns seriously, with responsive feedback that ignores your complaints, blames you for problems, and retaliates by doubling down on content you’re guaranteed not to love. Pinterest? Might as well be Insta. Or FB. Or nothing at all. P.S. All these problems are worse since I posted this review! Nice way to treat a user!

ALL Ads & Algorithm. NO (real) friends. The Sponsored Pins are out of control. I see sponsored content more than I see my own friend’s post (and I mean face-to-face friends). On multiple occasions the sponsored posts have opened without any intentional interaction on my part; just from my scrolling through the app or when searching for something. But I have to put an effort just to see what an individual friend’s personal activity/recent pins. I feel like a creep. And now I’m getting told “Hire an interior designer from [sponsor]” when I’m just tryna look at a bookcase! That’s too far. I’ve been on Pinterest since it’s was invite only and now it’s overcrowded with multi-level marketing schemes and aggressive sponsored ads posing as real pins. I miss seeing my REAL life friend’s posts, not just what some AI algorithm thinks I want. And what’s up with the pop-up asking “did you find what you were looking for?”, why do you need an answer when I don’t even know what I was looking for? It’s just as uncomfortable as having a sales associate invading your personal space and following you around the store tryna make a sale sell when you’re just trying look around. That behavior is what keeps people from making a purchase or coming back again. Now I’m concerned with how my data is being used. Don’t pull a Facebook Pinterest, I’d hate to see you go down like them and lose the trust of your users.

Lost its individuality.. I always loved Pinterest since 2014 when I was 14 and I’m 21 now. Since then I’ve considered it a ‘safe place’ free from ads and the traps of marketing where I could gather ideas and get creative without the pressure of social media. I have never made a review, but this app is just too close to my heart and it hurts to see it fall down. Recently, it’s just the same as other platforms. I can now rarely find a good recipe or a creative outfit. Every other pic is an advertisement for a waist trainer or TikTok influencers. I wouldn’t mind too much if it was less frequent like it was before but now it’s every other pin. It’s distracting to the point where I can’t find any good pins. Instead of it being a curative list of pins in your style, it’s tiktoks of influencers showing you the most recent trends. I can now barely find any pins that appeal to my style. It’s all those short videos or tiktoks that are just ads. The videos distract from the picture pins so I end up not seeing what I came to Pinterest for. It’s an ad fest just like Instagram and TikTok where the strategy is to get you hooked on watching those short useless videos for hours. I deleted TikTok and Instagram for a reason, and now all apps are turning into it. Pinterest has almost completely lost its individuality and I’m sure it’s just downhill from here. It’s a shame, but if it continues this way I’ll be forced to get off of it.

Have I reached the end of Pinterest?. I think I've reached the end of Pinterest! I keep seeing the same content over and over again. I only follow around 3000 people's Ms follow more every week. I have 9000 followers--which my number of followers slowed down significantly when they changed the feeds and algorithms. I can no longer see the people who follow me--even though my number of followers go up, it's no longer adding profiles to the followers section. I am so sick of seeing advertisements and sponsored content that have NOTHING to do with anything that I would ever want to see from Home Depot (I think we all kinda know about Home Depot at this point) to Pantene hair commercials. The settings for automatic video play do not work. And dare I use the "show me more like this button"; CLEARLY Pinterest's taste level has a bug since it usually looks NOTHING like what I've just pinned. I preferred the only method of see who else has pinned this pinned so that you could start following others with your same taste level and subject matter. Pinterest has become almost as bad as Houzz for the masses and has become very hard to curate sophisticated collections of idea boards. I use Pinterest to work with my clients and promote my business. There are very few settings that you can change and I am so tired of seeing the same content over and over again! Oh wait, I already said that--well now you know how it feels!

I cant see new ideas anymore, it makes me not get on this app like ever. My favorite part of this app was the fact that I could go to explore and find new ideas, hence why I always have so many boards. New ideas would pop up in the explore and i would love it and go crazy looking for new ideas from pinterest by looking through the explore every chance I got but you guys got rid of the explore. Now when i click one pin even by accident i get 50 more pins for the exact same pin. Sometimes It would be one simple recipe of pie and now i have 30 of them everyday. So then you guys created an option where I can not get specific suggestions from what I clicked but even when I unfollow what I clicked it doesnt matter because my feed is literally still exact suggestions from my boards I created. So i feel like i dont get anywhere with this app. I am literally on instagram all the time because I can see different new things not different versions of the same thing especially ones I pinned already. Its fine when im searching for something but after a while I get the point and I get off the app. I wont even bring up the ads. Sorry but Im done with this app. I sure i wont be the last. Your new users dont know what their missing but seeing the same sweater everyday will get boring for them too eventually. Bring back explore so we can see new ideas, stop thinking i want to see 80 different versions of a pink Christmas tree.

Wonderful app, but there are issues. The most recent issue is this. You’re visiting someone’s board and scrolling through it but after like five seconds the app forcefully scrolls back to the top of the board and reloads. This is really annoying as you have almost no time to scroll through someone’s board and find what you’re looking for. There is a similar bug where you visit someone’s board, tap on a pin, and then hit the back button, only for the entire board to reload. This is really annoying if you find a bunch of pins you really like while going through a board and don’t want to get lost, because the app is basically forcing the board to reload and is also forcing you to go locate those pins you were looking at all over again. Aside from that Pinterest is a great app. There could be less ads taking up room on your feed and boards but hey, every app has to make money, I get it. The app is mostly easy to navigate and usually it will have what you’re looking for, and it’s very fun as you don’t have to look far and wide for inspiration or cool pins. There’s lots of great stuff out there if you just look around you. But the bugs I mentioned above are making it difficult to enjoy the app as you can’t properly navigate other people’s boards without them constantly reloading atm. Otherwise, great app.

Pop-up notifications too big. I’ve been a fan of Pinterest for many years. I’ve seen the way the app has changed visually quite a few times. I loved it then and still do now. One thing I’d like to change is the way notifications look when I save or delete something. The banner that tells me that I’ve successfully saved a pin to a board, blocks a portion of the next pin that I’m currently looking at. It’s too large (a big white bar) and stays on the screen a bit longer than I would like. I’d like to see a more minimal design: thinner banner, smaller font, maybe less opaque, and disappears quickly. Perhaps it could just be a simple checkmark with the name of the board the pin was saved to. if I was a casual user who only saved a few pins at a time, it probably wouldn’t bother me so much. But I tend to fall into a rabbit hole of inspo and pin so many photos to different boards that the huge pop-up hinders the experience. It would be great if I could move through photo to photo more smoothly. It’s something super minimal, but I really don’t have an issue with anything else apart from this. When there are unexpected issues within the app, I find it’s pretty easy to get around the problem and it gets resolved fairly quickly by the team (very good job on that part). It’s just this banner thing that’s not up to me to change and it’s something I encounter every time I’m on Pinterest.

i love this app but there’s one thing that i’d almost make it 3 stars. i’ve loved this app since quarantine. i’ve saved thousands of pins. but since i started it removed photos on pins, creator circles removed, and comments and dms turned off (which i understand because i’ve heard of the situations). as a normal user it’s almost 5/5 stars. but as a creator it’s at best a 3. im hoping one day the creator circles will be back but im not super hopeful. but it’s very frustrating because i’m getting no engagement. i have almost 400 followers and i might get 1 person liking it. i get a single comment and i’ll be practically jumping excited. its just annoying because i used to get engagement on almost every pin. it used to be a community of my favorite people and artists. now it’s hard for me to find their stuff and for them to find my stuff. i wish the creator circles would come back. i almost want to give pinterest a 3 for the updates but i really like this app so ill give it 4. im critiquing it because i want this amazing app to be more creator friendly. so pinterest if you are seeing this please consider changing things. the updates are getting annoying and the point of them should be to bring features TO pinterest not AWAY

Open mind. As a retired educator of 44 years I have felt bad about students not learning the “basics”. I am a firm believer in lifetime learning however and have found the internet, especially Pinterest and u tube to be an amazing resource. My hobbies include woodworking, welding, customizing autos, boats, motorcycles, oil painting, silversmithing, etc. no day passes that I do not find something valuable. After camping and hunting for a lifetime I am shocked about how many tips I find to make these hobbies more comfortable or economical. Think about being turned around in the woods or a city. Ask seri and you can get out the most isolated spot. Drive along and see a sign in Spanish or some other language and you can get a translation, The benefits are endless and Pinterest is a wonderful tool. The biggest problem I had with public school students was the question “where are we going to use this?” If you are in an unsatisfactory, dead end job then education is the rescue. Education does not have to be classical academic. It can be welding, home building, concrete work, electrical, auto repair, beauty school, or what ever you are interested in. Pinterest can answer a lot of questions about whether to proceed into a field. Keep an open mind!

Best thing ever. Thanks to Pinterest I can express myself throughout creativity and just art boards and just all these boards that I can make and I can express myself through them I think my favorite two boards is probably my Jesus Christ one and my photography because those are two really important things in my life and this is a really great app for all ages and I do recommend it to anyone who is eligible to have it. And I first got it when I was about 11 and I just got an iPod not a phone but my parents wouldn’t let me have any kind of social media so this was kind of like a social media for me and I very much enjoyed it you can fine inappropriate things on there if you search them up I have never search them up but if you click on the wrong link or something it could lead to something so just be mindful when you have your kids on there it will ask you of like things that you’re interested in just make sure that you are looking over that because there are things on there that maybe you should look over with them other than that it’s an excellent app and in less you’re truly searching for something or you just click the wrong link you won’t find anything bad and I truly absolutely for the very last time do you recommend it to all thanks!

Love the app, hate the updates. I love Pinterest but if you’re going to update the app and give me options of things to do, don’t take it away! I used to be able to like pins if I didn’t have a board to put it in. I can “react” to certain pictures but I can only use one reactions option and it’s not for all pins. So now I have a bunch of pointless boards so I can still see things that I like. I loved having the option of sections in boards because if I have a “house work” board I can do a section with the bathroom, the bedroom, the living room, etc. It was a while since I updated and when I finally did, I wish I hadn't. I went to create sections for my travel board based on places to make it easier to plan my own trips and I can’t! I’m actually mad about this. And something that isn’t really a major issue but kinda disappointing is that when I come across a pin that I like and want to see more of, I tap on it. But sometimes it’s just an add and it takes me to a website. Which I guess I can see more by going through the website but I can usually access the website if I voluntarily tap on the picture after getting a preview. This is also the only app that closes out on me. I know it’s a free app and it takes a while to give the app its full potential but this isn’t really a new app anymore. Keep updates!!! When you bring in a new feature, don’t take it away from us! Some of us are (more like were) using those

A tiny problem. I’d like to first state I adore the app; but there’s been a few glitches/bug’s going on, I’m not sure if it there in purpose or not but I’d like to address the problem. Whenever I see a pin I’d like to look at, instead of showing me the pin it takes me to ‘similar pins’ or ‘suggested’ which is a bit annoying, and whenever I’d try to download a pin onto my iPad (photos) the same exact thing happens. I’ve tried the three little dots but that only allows me to share the pin. I was wondering how to download a pin since it’s not working normally anymore, or how I can fix this?

Good overall, except for some major comments bugs. Hello!! Each update the UI gets much more readable and easy to use, which is a definite win!! Everything is more organised and clean :D however I have been experiencing some MAJOR comments bugs. I’ve tried the basics, such as restarting the app, redownloading the app, re-signing back into my account, going through the desktop version, and every single time comments have disappeared. They’ll show up in my notifications tab however when I click on them and it takes me to the comments chain it isn’t there, nor does it reappear. Sometimes entire comments chains are unopenable entirely. I’m not certain if this is a common issue or not, but overall this is my most common and frustrating gripe with the app. All else is fine, and gets better with each update!!

Great app, but. Sometimes when attempting to scroll through a board after rearranging it, the scrolling is oddly difficult—significantly slower and more limited than usual, and when I stop touching the screen it scrolls up of its own accord. There doesn’t seem to be a reason for this. The activity page is just awful. Not only do I now not get to see the boards to which my pins were saved, but now they’re swamped with recommended “related” pins—a feature I can already access from an excessive number of alternate means. Let me see the boards to which my pins were saved, and cut the recommendations in the activity feed. No one wants them there. The process to reorder and personalise pins in their boards is cumbersome. To move a single pin I need to click it, click reorder, and then wait for the board to load, and then I have to scroll to find the pin, and only *then* can I move it—and after all that, the preview doesn’t show the end result of the change in the actual board itself, so you don’t know how it looks until you save it. This process used to be so simple; just a tap and hold to drag it into place. Why was it changed?

amazing! just a few errors. this app is absolutely AMAZING! i have gotten so much inspo from it and have even lost a few kilograms in a few months because of some of the content regarding weight loss and workouts. despite this, i think there are a few things that need a little tweaking: so first off, sometimes all i want to do is post a meme in the comment section or something but i cant! please, PLEASE add the photo feature back in the comment section! second is just a minor inconvenience that i dont know if anyone else has. sometimes when i get a message or update, the pop up notification thing starts glitching and flashing and stuff. third and last, i think we should have a full list of who we follow. i needed to find this one makeup artist and i couldn’t find her because she hadnt posted recently. anyways, i hope someone from the pinterest rean read this and if so, thank you so much for doing so! great app, keep goin’ regards- ✨thekidgotinagain✨💖💜💙

ALL of my accounts deleted by pinterest. i LOVED pinterest - it was my favourite app. then yesterday, when i tried to log into my account, i found that it had been deactivated. i have seven accounts to i tried to log into one of my others to let my followers know but that, too had been deactivated. ALL of my accounts were deleted by pinterest. randomly. i contacted them many times to no avail. i even made two new accounts to contact my followers but they wer deactivated the second i tried to log in again. i am so devastated - i worked so hard on every single one of my accounts and for them to just be deleted? i had worked so hard - i had thousands of followers. i hope that this is a glitch that can be fixed, as i cannot think of a reason why each NEW account i make is deactivated too.

Bad. I have heard good things about this app but I have never gotten the chance to even experience it. Because I have tried over and over and over again to try make a account but nooooooooo pinterest doesn’t let me and I am in the age group to be able to make an account and all I wanna do is scroll on pinterest and chat with my friends but I can’t do that and this isn’t the first time I have had issues with trying to make an account I tried the start of December last year but nope and now I have tried again today and still no if this doesn’t get fixed I will start to warn people about this and tell them they should talk to you guys about it and I don’t like being mean and I don’t think that is mean I just want to get on to pinterest and that’s a good thing for you guys but there is other a bug or something going on that you guys have not realised about and idk why it’s not working I have checked all the information and everything I am doing is right soooooo idk Kind regards

Could do with some crucial fixes. Ok so I enjoy Pinterest for being able to organise a lot of pictures for inspirational stuff. However, since the update there seems to be a glitch where the screen appears as if it’s stuck between two pins, and I can only see half of the image and scroll underneath like normal. It’s hard to fix up again and I end up losing whatever images I wanted to use because restarting the app seems to be the only solution. On top of that, there seems to be a seperate glitch where if you try to rearrange pins on a board, a single image might be flagged or glitchy in some way and you can’t rearrange any pins if that one is touched or moved at all, which leads to “error” and causing everything to go back to where it was, or crashing the app. I WOULD go back and delete the pin to prevent this, but there is no way if indicating which pin this is, or why it’s even doing this in the first place. It becomes tiresome quickly Otherwise, fun app that accommodates to my need for visual stimuli

Love Pinterest. I've been enjoying Pinterest for a few years now and observed and in most cases enjoyed the changes the developers have given us. But there are a couple of things that I miss. One is the ability to search either Pinterest or the net for things of interest from the main search "spy glass" on my feeder page. Now I only have the option of searching Pinterest. Another is that when pinning I used to be able to see some of the history of the pin and who had pinned it previously. That gave me the opportunity of looking at those pinners and their boards to discover people and boards I may wish to follow. It is nowhere near as easy to discover this now. In regard to my own boards, I would love to be able to sort my boards into groups of similar subjects ... ie a main board with sub boards to keep all pins related to that topic together.

I have been faithful but you have hurt my feelings.. Recently I got an email to say that a comment I had made on a pin was considered harassment and had been removed. I was warned about it again. I cannot recall ever intentionally harassing anyone and if someone took offence at something I said, at least I should be able to see the pin in question so that I can decide if my comment is truly mean or just someone being overly sensitive. I have been on P since the beginning but I feel like quitting after this. Also you say your policy is against nudity etc. But it is riddled with it. So maybe before I get attacked get breaching the policy, you should just have a look at others who do as well. I have reported several blatantly sexual / nude pics tonight. There are far too many to report them all. A couple I saw border onto Child Exploitation

New Update. I absolutely love Pinterest and have been using it for years now but I have noticed that when you click on an image it doesn’t come with the image you selected instead it comes with the “more like this” page. If this is a bug could you please fix this as it’s super annoying. Other than that an amazing app and I highly recommend for anyone who likes to store ideas or just to keep funny videos in one place. All the best for the future From your friendly Pinterest user 🫶🏼❤️ Edit: Never mind there was no bug I just had my iPad the wrong way. Oops 😅

Some major downgrades, regularly changes. Late Feb 2022 edit: Grids in home feed are back on mobile which is great! Thank you. However, as long-time user, I really hope Pinterest brings back the Following feed. What’s the point of following profiles where you’re only functionally subscribed to their “stories”? / 2021 Review: Pinterest, I’ve loved you for many, many years but…what are you doing? First, you went all ~Insta~ mimicking their following feed without any option to back to the classic grids which used to be a well-loved distinct feature to now completely killing the following feed on the mobile app. You even killed the curated ideas feed based on our active boards which was at least quite useful. Stay you, please, or there’s little to no point in using Pinterest if you’re gonna try to look like other apps, especially when Instagram now has Collections.

Very disappointed with the latest updates. I was a very early user of Pinterest and have loved it for years using it as a great source of inspiration, resources and collection for ideas for my many interests. However the latest update with trying to use sections within a board are absolutely useless. One can spend ages ticking the pictures to move to a new section, only to find that the pictures have not moved and lo and behold one has to move the pictures again after ticking them again to move to the new section and finding the board from the alphabetical list! I have no idea why this new idea was implemented because it is absolutely useless. I like the idea of having subsections within a board so I could create smaller areas of interest but going back over a previous board that has been started has become a time-consuming task. Pinterest please fix this up ASAP!! Or you will have more disgruntled users.

The new update. I love Pinterest myself and have dedicated quite a while into many of my boards and i hadn't logged in for a while and when i came back i saw all my boards had been disabled for no reason?? This new update is making Pinterest incredibly hard to use and is trying to solve problems that do not exist, i am no longer able to search practically anything up or look at any boards and there is no way to get any data back. Great app but i believe the update should be removed so people can actually get any use out of the app again!!

10/10 app, specially for artists =). This is an amazingly wonderful app to get inspiration and/or ideas. From Travelling and foods to woodworking and room ideas! Games and build ideas to sewing, and paintings from small canvases to giant murals on the side of titanic buildings! You can quite possibly find close to anything on here. Although….one lil problem. With the newest update, I am now unable to view pics, and as an artist, that is a big problem =( When I tap on said pic, it takes me to ‚more like this‘ instead of the picture. Happens on all tabs {if you will}. My for you, home page, and even searches. I‘ve gotten out of the app, swiped it away and went back into it and it still does it =(( I hope this gets fixed sooner

Amazing App!!. This app can help you in many different aspects of life whether you are looking for simple healthy recipes, travel ideas, tips hacks, or inspiration! You have can search anything you want and it will show you what you are after. The thing I love most about this app is that you can create your own profile, so you are not only receiving inspiration, but also giving! You create many different boards with different topics depending on your own interests, this way other people can also find your profile and receive tips, guides, and many more. I definitely recommend this app to all people who are in need of a little inspiration in the lives!

AMAZING (But.....). I’ve had this app for about 2-3 years and it’s still great, the app is amazing for many reasons -You can find literally anything for literally anything 😂 -Organisation is on point -Never gets boring -Updates get better and better! (But...) I honestly love this app but... the new update is frustrating, when you tap on a pin and then press on it again ( If it doesn’t take you to a website that is) the ‘More like this’ banner (would u call it that?) Is annoying! If there’s a way to GET IT GONE, (Is there a way to turn that off in the app settings) help me please, or can you please just get rid of it, another problem is the section on the bottom of your screen ( the one where u can choose to go to your boards, look people on Pinterest up, or see notifications ) my does this thing were is raises itself higher when I press a pin, and then I’m stuck on searching pins and I can’t press off that option on that section. If there’s a way to stop this from happening do please help or am I doing something wrong? (May just be my phone or the app because it’s on my phone I don’t know) Other than that I highly recommend getting the app!

Glitches upon glitches. Basically I cannot comment at all. I use this on an iPad so idk what it’s like for phones and pc but I cannot see my comment unless I use it portrait mode okay cool but then I’m order to actually post said comment I have to switch to landscape but get this. It never ever EVER ACTUALLY POSTS. It just freezes and crashes EVERY SINGLE TIME. I have tried deleting and redownloading, I have tried signing in and out, I have tried using different accounts, manually updating you name it NOTHING EVER WORKS. On top of this it doesn’t even tease me with the option to add an image to my comment that is completely entirely not even there so I can’t even TRY that which even if I did it wouldn’t work but cmon PLEASE FIX YOUR BUGS. also NOT a bug but please fix the issue where your Home Screen automatically refreshes it’s pointless and annoying and I have lost many pins bc of this stupid feature that nobody asked for and everybody ever hates. Your app used to function, what happened to that?

Pinterest. On the whole ,ok, but don’t like it bouncing away from pins I am just trying to capture. Love the picture view, have bought stuff just on great photo looks, but having some issues with setting up my own business account. And some stores seem to overwhelm users with their multiple ads / pins. However, biggest issue I have is while trying to set up business acct, it gives instructions to add metatag and html file, but the instructions when followed lead to message bar and external contacts only. Tried so many times that I finally deleted app and tried to reload it but Pinterest says my business email is taken by another user. THAT’S ME! Logging in from web browser gets me nowhere useful, so please contact me and sort this out, it is driving me crazy.

Constant Changing. I have been a Pinterest user since the very VERY early days- when it was by invitation only. There is no doubt that Pinterest was and still has the potential to be an amazing platform- but the constant changes to the experience are too much. I was prepared to accept the annoying suggested pins repeatedly showing me things I’d already pinned... I was happy to accept sponsored posts...even the new full screen ones. The “following” tab was a perfect compromise between Pinterest new and of old- but now on the mobile app you can only see one following image at a time, ensuring you spend no time with your “follow” community and forcing you back to the home page. Once again Pinterest (badly) calls the shots with no regard to the users and their communities who built the platform to what it is.

LOVE THIS GAME!. Ok this game is the BEST EVER! I like this game because, it’s 12+ and it’s a fun relaxing! I can just sit and scroll and be me, I also love how you make the saved folders like; you save a pic and then you can make a folder for it and save it to that! So that’s great but……… the only prob is that this game is really SLOW to LOAD it takes like 10 to 20mins sometimes, so that’s ANNOYING but…….. Overall I recommend this game because everything is absolutely FREE, and it’s absolutely AMAZING! EXCEPT for the little bugs, but that might not happen to you because my iPad is really FULL! So that might be a reason, MAYBE MAYBE NOT idk 🤷‍♀️ but hopefully it DOSE’NT happen to U!! Hope U get the GAME because it’s AMAZING AND FREE AND RELAXING!! 😊😌✨THE MAKERS OF THIS GAME ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND LEDGANDS!! Kind/Happy regard’s Jess

The new update. I ADORE PINTEREST! It is my favourite app and I just love finding exactly what I am looking for whenever I need it. Pinterest is perfect! However I have one problem.. recently there is a new update for accounts under 16 years old are to be made private and some boards disabled. This is not necessary for Pinterest to do as I believe it is such a safe space already. I am particularly annoyed with the restriction and the accounts being made private as some people are no longer able to see my acc at all. My girlfriend and I have board for each other that we can look at but now she is no longer able to view my account! This is really heartbreaking as our first way of communicating our feelings was through our pins we had saved and sent to each other. I also have looked up to see if anyone else is having difficulties and are unimpressed, there is quite a lot. The update may have had good intentions but the functionality of Pinterest is now broken. I urge to you remove the update and keep private account and option. I will continue to support the app but this change is disappointing. Hopefully you take action. Kind regards, a beloved Pinterest user 💜

I Hate Idea Pins.. I have loved pinterest for years and use it almost every day. I enjoy that it is more simple and unique and doesn't have updated features every few weeks trying to compete with all the other social apps. However, I absolutely hate the new idea pins. If I wanted to group pins together I would put them in a board or a section of a board - I don't see the need for idea pins. They are pretty much all I am seeing in my 'more ideas' and 'posts like this' sections and it's really turning me off the app. I wish you could filter searches to just show photos/idea pins/video etc and turn off idea pins coming up in your suggestions. I often see a single photo that I would like to save in amongst an idea pin but i dont want to save all the photos so I have to just scroll away and hope I see that photo again one day to save it layer...I just dont get it and it clogs up my feed. Also please bring back the ability to search for boards by name on the app, it is still a feature for desktops and I wish they kept it on apps too.

I adore Printrest buttttt, please change the new update. I absolutely love, love, love Pinterest buttt after the new update I am a bit sad. I loved posting things for my friends and others to view but now due to the new update that can not happen anymore. In addition i can’t calibrate and share with my friends anymore. I would really encourage Pinterest to revert back to how they used to and allow all ages to post on Pinterest and share with each other. I personally believe that Pinterest is a safer enough app without and would really love to see it how it use to be. I would have given 5 starts but due to the new update I had to give 4. Pleaseee, pleassse Pinterest!!?!?

It’s good- but I have complaints.. Pinterest is a good app and site to seek inspiration and catalogue it for later use, as well as use it for just leisure. But I’m getting increasingly frustrated with each update. First the search engine was removed despite many people protesting against it, then the comments section doesn’t allow you to reply to others (at least this one’s fixed) and now the homefeed is confusing to navigate on the app as well. I didn’t ask for this, and I’m pretty sure no one did. There’s been a trend where new features have been added or removed, and the company isn’t listening to its users. If it keeps up, I’m thinking of moving to another app.

Great, but could use some improvements. PLEASE MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE SECTIONS WITHIN SECTIONS!!! I have talked to so many people about this and they all agree that it would make the app so much better. Basically every week since I first downloaded Pinterest I check to see if that was in the update but it never is. PLEASE consider. The only other complaint I have is that the homepage always refreshes when I don’t want it to. If I’m in Pinterest and I get a pop up saying that my battery is low or there’s WiFi connections nearby, it will refresh. Or if I swipe down to see my phone notifications, Pinterest will refresh when I swipe back into the app. This even happens when I barely even swipe it down at all. Very annoying. Other than those things, however, this is a great app and very addicting.

Great app. This is a really good app that helps you find great inspiration and ideas. I also love how it is not all about the followers in this app like it is for a lot of other apps. You get to really customise you profile and easily change it when ever you want. Adding on to all of that you can message friends, and if your child is getting into social media this is a great app to get them ready. You can view everything that you’re child is liking and following from your Pinterest page which is another plus. Just like other apps there are cons and one of them is the types of people on Pinterest that are not the good kind and also there can be hurtful comments etc. Otherwise this a great app

Some issues overall great app and space. The issues I have is I can’t seem to comment tried pins on desktop or mobile. It’s like the feature disappeared, there wasn’t any indication of what happened because I’m not the only one experiencing the trouble. It was a nice social feature and I like seeing other people’s tried stuff. Please bring back. It would also be nice to have to carousel feature on mobile like other social platforms where you can share multiple images in one post. This problem didn’t bother me as much. Otherwise this app has so many good features, content, user interface and friendly online presence.

Pinterest - an Invaluable aid to writing. Pinterest is an invaluable tool when I’m writing birthday and event cards. I constantly receive complimentary comments on the choice of words in the various birthday, thank you, condolence and “just thinking of you” messages I send. I get a warm feeling of satisfaction because the recipients believe I’ve been particularly creative with the messages they receive from me. Whilst I don’t admit to it being Pinterest which is the source of the inspiring words, I feel rewarded to see how much appreciated the words are. . . . and it’s Pinterest which really deserves the appreciation.

Addicted but needs a lil work!!. What Pinterest should add is like a download for videos. It’s annoying when I really like a video but have to screen record it all so that I can show my friends and stuff. If you could do that I would be grateful, and not only me but pretty much everyone! .Although I’m so addicted to this. I love just looking through. And as I said, I got addicted. I spend hours on there, and it feels like 30 minutes. There is always something knew. And when I finally convinced my friend to get it, she said he home area was bassicly her mind. It’s a great way to chat with your friends, I love sending them pins I’ve found. This is defiantly a must need. Ps. This is also a great way for inspo and ideas.

Amazing app, a few bug fixes though. I love Pinterest, I use it every day and am a bit of an addict. Pretty much all of my friends use it to, and I often go over to their accounts to just see what they've saved. However, in the past couple of months, going into the following and followers thing has been glitching. Sometimes I cant see a couple of my friends accounts (It will say I'm following say 10 but will only show 6, and its the same for followers) or sometimes it will glitch out completely and I can’t even access it. I would really appreciate it if this was fixed, otherwise, i have no disregards about the app, and I love it!

Good concept but slightly annoying. I enjoy the idea of Pinterest but mostly to create my own boards for my own reference. I make them public but have no collaborators because I prefer to maintain my boards myself. I find the “ideas you might love” section on my boards to be distracting and also alter how I want my boards to appear. I’ve tried but can’t find a way to switch them off or get rid of them and would really appreciate the option to do so. Update: I keep asking for this option and I’m seriously frustrated at not being able to have my boards appear as I want them without input from Pinterest. I’d really appreciate YOUR FEEDBACK on why this seems to be mission impossible! I’m OCD and need my pins lined up in neat rows, even though I love the concept of Pinterest but I’m giving up on it soon, it’s doing my head in

I love Pinterest but. I’ve been using Pinterest for a few years now but ever since these recent updates it’s became really frustrating to use. For some weird reason I can’t save photos into a section in my boards, I have to save it to the actual board and then save it to the section which isn’t a major problem but it’s annoying. Also I can’t share photos from other places to Pinterest any more. Also I don’t know if it’s just mine but they’ve taken messages away which is weird and I can no long see you saves my pins. I would just love if someone could do something about these things please cause I love Pinterest but it’s really really frustrating to use.

Love it! However.... I am completely in love with Pinterest. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t spend at least an hour or two scrolling through pins. However I and some of my friends are experiencing some problems, like not being able to send messages to each other directly in the inbox. And it seems we can’t send each other more than one pin within a span of 30 seconds because a notification pops up saying it’s trying to “combat spam” even though my friends and I are TRYING to spam each other with pins that we would absolutely love. I don’t know whether this is a bug problem in terms being unable to send each other message within the inbox section, but it would be very much appreciated if you would please look into these 2 issues so I and many of friends and other people can have the ultimate Pinterest experience. Thank you (:

Good but not enough options to tweak feed. I've used Pinterest for years and generally really enjoyed it. HOWEVER, I wish I could turn off entire categories of ads in feed eg all cooking ones, all meat ones ( as a vegetarian), all clothes ones ( as I don't care). Even worse now is recent move to make it a condition for you to enter your birthdate. Trouble is I am atypical for my age. I now get ageist jokes which bother me, ads for products I never use, concerns about health I don't care about. I'm young at heart and not stereotypical in taste. I like leading edge stuff not traditional interests. I know I'm not the only one as retirees today were the hippies in their youth. Many of us still have that attitude. I'm wondering what I'm missing now in my feed because some algorithm has decided I wouldn't be interested. There has been much discussion in how much info companies REALLY need about you with all the identity theft around. So is birthdate really necessary. I am person not an age. Even if they are fixed in asking a year, do they need to store the month and day of birth.. does the month or day change my preferences???

Something I don’t understand. To the developers of Pinterest: i have gotten an email from u guys and I understand but can u tell me which pins who removed? Because I just wanna know because some of it I didn’t save or maybe some else did. But thank u for getting in contact with me I understand there was a copyright issue even tho I didn’t know what or Which picture was it but if u can show me some of it than I will know it mine I save or someone hacked my account and post a copyright pictures or idk but again I am sorry for the copyright even tho i don’t know which pins but yeah I understand anyways I love Pinterest even tho I have to delete my account for my own reasons. And thank you for making a app that is really fun and wonderful hope u read this

Review of Pinterest .. Pinterest —- As an artist , I appreciate all that you provide , it is an excellent service , . I have been painting for over 30 odd years now , I am a realistic oil painter on canvas , as the years go by , I have found Pinterest , provides that , idea , that I inspiring idea , the inspiration, to create my next piece , hence the varied albums I have with you . The female form is paramount, must of my compositions include the form ,—- I am always looking for new poses , colour , light , style — that is the style of drawing , painting , the tone of the piece . You see my albums go from the old masters to modern artists of today . I studied in Chicago 94 —97 the Dutch Masters , and realism is still my style , but I thankfully adapt my pieces with you pins , to create a difference , —- so I say to you guys , many ,many , Thanks . —- I could send you photos , pieces I have sold all over the world , in my years of painting . Realistic paintings , in the early years , now. , still realistic but with a twist , now I paint —- what I call —- Paintings within paintings . Many thanks once again , cheers Col Snare .

Suggestion please respond and consider. I absolutely love Pinterest and have used it for many years now, discovering new inspiration every day. The app really motivates me to do and fulfil certain things and I love the creativity in the apps design and idea. However, I would like to make a suggestion that would greatly benefit many users. When you click edit on a board you are given the option to merge boards where your pins and board name are moved to another board as a section in that board. Could you please make an option to move just the pins of a certain board to a new board without creating a section. It would make saving pins a lot easier and would greatly improve the satisfaction of the app. Please make it happen.

I have three things that I would like fixed. First of all Pinterest has WAY to many adverts on it now. Every time I go onto Pinterest a million of the exact same ads just it me in the face and I don’t want to use Pinterest anymore because of it. The second thing is that when I try to zoom in on pins the screen just freezes and I have to go out of Pinterest in order to continue using it. The third and final thing is that when I try to reply to a comment, the ‘add’ button is covered up by the bar at the bottom of the screen. This is very annoying and means that I can’t reply to any questions or thank people for nice replies and stuff like that. I don’t like using the app as much anymore because it just isn’t what I would expect (nor want) from an app as big as Pinterest. really hope that these things get fixed and that I can enjoy your app once more. Hope you understand and help me to enjoy Pinterest again. Thanks, Leah

Please stop changing things all the time. Weekly updates to fix the bugs is good but it’s really unnecessary to make little changes constantly. For one, I can’t refresh a board/section by dragging the page downwards anymore, because doing that now just closes the board/section and I have to reopen it to refresh it. Obviously that’s not a huge inconvenience but I just think it was better the other way. One big problem though is that for a couple of months now the app hasn’t allowed me to move more than one pin at a time. The option to select the pins I want to move is available but there was no button to actually move/delete them. Then last night that option finally appeared... and now it’s gone again just a day later. I really love Pinterest, and the app is, in my opinion easier to navigate than the desktop website, but all these constant little changes are annoying. You know the saying, don’t fix what isn’t broken. Aside from those little things, this is a really good app.

Love Pinterest but.... I absolutely love Pinterest, I use it daily and it's super useful. Plus I've had it for years. Although recently within the last few updates its been making me want to stray away from the app. I use Pinterest on my phone and my iPad, but mainly my iPad. And I can't click onto photos and videos without it showing me 'More like this' and I can't actually see the post this includes pins I have saved on my boards. I like Pinterest the way it is and I understand that developers are trying to find ways to make Pinterest 'better' but these last few updates including when my boards we're disabled for a while because of a 'Teen safety' campaign, reallt have just made me want to use the app less and less. I think it would be better if they just leave it the way it was and only change things that would actually make Pinterest better. This may just be me and a few other people but this is just my opinion. Thank you 💕

PinterestLover. I have had Pinterest for more than three years now, and I love it. In fact, like many millions of others, I am a Pinterest addict. I haven’t been crazy about some of the changes made to the app, but I’m still pinning madly. I do have one comment to make though, about the age group for which Pinterest is recommended. I have seen images and content offensive to adults. Definitely not suitable for children under 15, and some, shouldn’t be viewed by anyone younger then 18. The new order of comment paragraphs is confusing, with the last at the top. Instinct is to read from the top of the page, but now you need to go down to find your first comment.I find it amusing that you inform me you’ve deleted a pic because of copyright, and show me a photo of a bowl of soup. What was the actual complaint about? The photo of a bowl of soup? The ingredients used to make the soup were stolen? Ha ha, guys, your random computer generated pics to send as cover for what you actually deleted, are hilarious. But when you send a pic of something I would not have pinned in a fit, that’s a bit disconcerting...

High quality pictures, great team. Definitely an app I would recommend, both for social media and reference purposes. Great community, great users and great team. The pictures on Pinterest are just different from those from Google images. You’re somehow able to find more quality pictures on Pinterest than on google, so I’ve found myself using Pinterest to look up references and etc stuff like that more often than google. The help team, amazing, they solved my problem in one days and I was back on Pinterest just like that. My community tab wasn’t appearing, they gave me some tips, those tips didn’t work, I told them, and a few hours later bam, they send me an email saying they’ve worked out the problem and solved it, and indeed, my problem was solved. Fast reply and efficient.

Pinterest is the best. I work with students at a Year 11 & 12 level, with varying degrees of capabilities in art Art class setting. This is the most incredibly valuable tool in order to support and increase inspiration in both my own personal art practice - and in order to explain and increase depth of thinking. Whether we are chasing black and white photographers, assemblage art and artists, meshing together a mix of ideas to come out with a cohesive end product - and of course inspiration. It is a great way to educate the many foibles and pitfalls of 'intellectual property' which up until now has been difficult to trace. Pinterest is the ultimate.

Deactivated. I have been using Pinterest for some time now and have found the content interesting most of the time, while there are some things on it that maybe shouldn't be. A lot of content is repeated. While the app is good, I did an update recently and found my account had been deactivated for unknown reasons. My issue is the lack of customer service when I used the contact link to appeal the deactivation. No reason for deactivation was given leaving me a bit confused. I don’t post anything to Pinterest and don’t spam either, so I have no idea why my account was deactivated. Is has been more than 48 hours since I contacted Pinterest vis their contact page. No response has been received, I could not operate a business that leaves customers hanging and wondering what happened. It’s a good thing I don’t have a business that uses Pinterest, it would not be a viable way to advertise if the account just gets deactivated without reason. That’s the only issue I have is the difficulty and time wasted trying to get the account reactivated.

I love Pinterest but I HATE THE NEW UPDATE. I love Pinterest, but the new update privates all under 16 acc. My friends who’s under 16 can’t join group boards, and friend anyone, which is unfair! Another thing is, all the boards I had them in before are now disabled until they turn 16, which is really annoying, I hate it so much, because all my years of hard-work on those boards are gone to waste, I had very important things on there. And you can’t even remove the person who’s under 16 to gain access to the board again! I find this update absolutely TERRIBLE!! I get that Pinterest is trying to be safer, but doing this is unfair to the people who are friends with people under 16, and for the people under 16!! There are so many other ways to make this app a safer place! PLZ FIX THIS UPDATE!! (AND LET US ACCESS OUR BOARDS)

Hey. Hello there! First and foremost I would like to say that this is one of the most interesting apps and my favourite too! It’s really therapeutic when I could discover new things and save as many as pins I can. But the reason why I gave it four stars is because recently when I open Pinterest, it doesn’t work. I’ve tried logging out to see if it works once I log in again but now I can’t even log in anymore. I even uninstalled it and then reinstalled it again but that didn’t work either. At first, I thought maybe it was only on my phone but the same t thing is happening with my friends and cousins too. I really love Pinterest, so that’s I hope someone can fix this issue.

Very very annoying bugs. There is this very annoying bug that I've dealt with ever since I first got Pinterest and it's where I'll be scrolling through with the pins in full view so that I can only see one at a time and then the app will just freeze and then crash just like that. And whenever I reopen it it's just stuck on one pin and I can't scroll anymore. I also got the app on my phone and a different bug happened where if I was scrolling like I was before then it would freeze and then it would repeat the last pins I just saw without me touching the screen. These bugs are very annoying and I've been using the app for almost a year now and these bugs have been there from the start.

All the descriptions and tags are invisible in the app. I rely on the descriptions and visible tags to know what my pins and others' pins are about and that's gone from the app. This makes all the pins useless to me because I can't see what the images are - they are just a group of images that I can't use. Can you PLEASE put the descriptions back and allow users to increase the area of text that's visible? Even on the desktop version most of the description is not visible on the board so I can't see what I need to make the item of the image at a glance. Please allow users to make choices and stop taking away the things that make Pinterest relevant and useful. And the constant updating and the lack of any HELP for info on using the app or registering any complaints or feedback in the app is annoying. Please fix the app so we can see what we’ve put as descriptions - five pictures of similar things are NOT worth 5000 words, the words are necessary to work out what the pins are. And allow help and feedback within the app.

Ridiculous new policy. I have been using Pinterest since I was 12 and absolutely love it. But they recently put in place a new policy meaning that all users under the age of 16’s account is made private and all boards shared with under 16’s will be disabled until all collaborators are 16. This is ridiculous, I am now 16 turning 17 and have had over half my boards, most I use for school, disabled. All my friends and board collaborators on Pinterest are all over 16 as well, yet our shared boards are lost. I am a VCE student and a lot of my subjects require evidence of though process and collaboration, this new feature means I cannot access the boards I use for the subjects and inhibits my ability to provide evidence and injures my study score and grade. I also lost a lot of boards for my passions of art and fashion, which I share with friends, and they are lost too. I’m taking about 5 YEARS worth of pins GONE. Pinterest is meant to be a place where users with common interests, likes and hobbies and collaborate and communicate with like minded individuals. A massive portion of Pinterest users are under the age of 16 and this inhibits and isolates them from a community of common people. This entire policy is stupid, unnecessary and ridiculous. I have written complaints to the help centre and hope this policy is dissolved and removed effectively and soon.

Inappropriate contact…. I was searching up cars on Pinterest I clicked on a pin of a car I liked them I scrolled down to the related pins and there was multiple pins of women wearing sexual bimbo clothing, I reported some of them and they kept reappearing and it wouldn’t let me hide them nor I would report them the pins just keep on reappearing, I clicked on the pin of a car that did NOT relate to the sexual bimbo clothing, I’m not trying to be rude but it’s true I clicked on a pin then I scrolled down and there was inappropriate contact, cars have got NOTHING to do with sexual clothing, is this why Pinterest is having problems lately, but it’s strange really strange? Has anyone had these issues before where people click on a pin of (cars) for an example and they scroll down at the related pins and they saw something inappropriate not ok?

Please fix this for the love of Christ. It is annoying (and frankly enraging) that when I exit a pin on my board, it brings me all the way to the top of the board. Who thought this was a good idea? WHO? It’s so annoying. Please fix this. I’ll pay you to fix this. Hell, I’ll do anything. I love to go through my boards and see the pins I made and when it brings me all the way to the top, I have to scroll ALLLL the way back down! Please please fix this guys. Please. God love ya. Fix this.

Please make it so we can download the images directly. I absolutely despise whatever you did to that download option. Now we have to save it to a pin and then download it. I’m quitting this app and tell my mom, my dad, my sister, my brother, my grandmother, my grandfather, my son, my daughter, my wife, my cousin, my aunt, my uncle, and my friends to quit this app. Fix it now or wait there will be consequences.

What happened?. Every update I get so disappointed. Ever since the try feature got removed Pinterest has been getting worse and worse. Notice how the good reviews only are from years ago, when it didn’t go downhill

bring back boards. you can’t search for boards anymore and it’s getting ridiculous. a while ago the ability to see what board something was being saved to was being removed, but for me, this new update is the last straw. that used to be the one feature i absolutely RELIED on for pinterest, and now it’s gone. on top of that, i don’t like how the new update changed the interface for pinning a pin to a board. it makes it nearly impossible to pin things. if things seriously don’t change and this app goes back to being more practical, i’m going to have to stop using it because it is far to frustrating. which is incredibly unfortunate because i’ve loved pinterest for years.

Ads are getting worse. Video ads with sound make the app slower and interrupts/pauses if you’re listening to something while browsing

I’m not adding my birthday. Seriously. I’m not adding my birthday so you can send me ads. I’ll delete the app first

Completely commercialized. This app is impossible to navigate because anything you click on is coated in ads. Most annoying are the video ads which scroll in front of the web content. This sucks my data and i avoid using Pinterest when I can avoid it.

Stop making unnecessary changes!. Stop taking out features people actually enjoy and fix the bugs that have a continuous presence throughout the app. Do better.

STOP refreshing!. There is literally nothing I hate more about this app than the fact that if I conduct a search or look at my pins, regardless of where I am on the home page, it will refresh. I should only get refreshed, new pin suggestions if I refresh manually. Otherwise I’ve lost numerous potential pins because this app believes that every time I leave the app or leave the apps main page I want to refresh my pins. This is the single most annoying part of this app by far.

LOVE it!!!!!. All the varieties it has to offer and especially all those FAB recipes!!!

board search function ?. i loved this app and used to use it all the time, but i’ve noticed that when you go to use the search function, you can no longer search for boards with what you’ve searched, only see the pins that come up with the result. this sucks and for me, defeats the purpose of the app because that was how i used it, looking at other people’s boards. i keep thinking this is a bug, because you used to be able to select “boards” to search, but update after update, this feature doesn’t come back. it’s very frustrating and making me kind of hate this app because i can barely search for things efficiently.

is there a reason why y’all decided to become tiktok. i miss having the sections to browse my other boards. having a main page and a watch page is not fun! also bring back photo comments weirdos ! not everyone needs to b tik tok! stay in ur lane!

Horrible new feature. App was great until they put the horribly annoying feature that puts where you can shop for the items in the picture. It ruins every picture I click on now. Horrible feature, would be less horrible if I could turn it off though.

Everything but the ads!. Love Pinterest, but loved it more without the repetitive, non interesting ads that never cause me to buy anything. In fact, I purposely don't purchase through a Pinterest link

J'adore. C'est un site très intéressant est une grande variété je l'adore cinq étoiles pour Pinterest xxxxx

Glitch. It’s having issues, when you click on a pin. It doesn’t open it goes to “More like this” instead

Bev D.. My daughter got me started on Pintrest! It is an awesome program! Breakfast and Pintrest - doesn't get any better! Now I find so many pins with advice for things that I have absolutely no interest in, continually over and over again

Unnecessarily loud ads. Deleting app until there is a mute option for ads. I get why adds are necessary, but if I have to mute my phone just to scroll, it’s not worth it. I can just use Instagram.

Worst update ever. Why tf y'all take away the individual sections for boards bro add them back plz 😫🙏

Disappointingly mismanaged. I’ve used Pinterest for years and years, and I’m convinced they are intent on running themselves into the ground. Never have I seen a company take everything good about it’s product and with each additional update incrementally destroy it. Frankly, it’s mind-boggling. Every feature the users enjoy is done away with or modified to become a shadow of itself. It’s a shame because they have something there, only they don’t seem to know what to do with it. It’s probably greed driving their decisions, but while they may squeeze out a quick buck, they’ll turn away content creators and users until they’re left with a buggy, dried up old husk of a site that no one visits anymore. What a shame, Pinterest.

Last update is crap. Last update is crap, unable to open or explode images even check up on details like recipes, just opens other set of images repeatedly as you tap on new ones . Needs to be reverted to previous version else would be useless. Version 11.15.1 still crap, cannot explode photos to get details and or links to informations or to download for making own list independent of internet to use at our convenience

Awesome. Always find stuff to laugh at, food to cook, decorating ideas.

End your soundless testing. Please hear out the complains, they're valid. The Pinterest Team recently forced a "new feature" on their users (which everyone absolutely loathes) and it's made using the app a real pain. It's an automatic save to a ghost board called "Profile", and to put pins in the boards you want them in, you have to go ahead and resave them once you find out where this board is. Online forums and their email support's inbox are full of complains, and still they refuse to give us an option out of their feature testing. The issue is they added more unnecessary steps to saving pins into the boards you want them in, and every time you try to delete this "quick save/profile" board, it magically reappears. If it were an option, it'd be fine. But it's not, now you have to go through these extra steps for EVERY PIN, and it's unavoidable. Many users are already talking about giving up the app, and they will unless Pinterest regains its senses and offers an option out. Then it would be actual testing, and you'd get a sound statistic of whether it's a necessary and/or appealing feature. Otherwise, Pinterest's great days are long behind them. Tic-toc.

Constantly pushes sales. The app now constantly pushes sales for similar products to what you’re looking at with annoying white dots all over the photo and pop ups. What was a simple browsing experience now requires a lot more taps. Stop ruining the experience with your greed, Pinterest.

Ads are ruining this app!. I have loved this app for a long time and will continue to use it for recipes etc. But it’s SO disappointing that they have sold out and ruined the pins with annoying dots with links to sell stuff. Pinterest was supposed to be about ideas and sharing things. Not just ads. The constant annoying ads are definitely ruining the app for me.

Seems to repeat itself too much. I used to have pins on different subjects which made it so interesting. Now, if I search for a chocolate cake recipe or a sweater pattern, all the pins I receive are related to these two searches. It is not as varied as it used to be and it is disappointing. The algorithm don’t have much imagination.

Love Pinterest ❤️❤️❤️. Amazing inspiration for literally everything in life!

Pinteresting. Have had Pinterest for a while now. Love it. Great for collecting ideas for later use.

probs. Can't search boards?

uh. so why was the option to search for boards removed? absolutely useless change that impedes the app.

Always Crashes!. I use Pinterest lots, even though over the years it seems to get worse honestly :( There are ads everywhere, and every time I’m on the app for more than 10 minutes it will crash and I have to reopen it. I keep making sure that it’s updated and everything, so I really don’t understand why it keeps doing this. I don’t see any reviews about it though, am I the only one who’s getting this??

The ads man.... Y’all really need to chill on the ads. I can’t even listen to music while in the app anymore😭

pinterest bug. Why does it take me all the way up the board when I exit a picture?

I hate ideal pins. as a ehm "content creator" ideal pins are horrible. they don't fit with my older videos in my boards and they look weird. I can't add personalized tags and they don't get nearly as many views as my older videos posted before the update... stop trying to be the dollar store tiktok, be pinterest again please.

INDIVIDUAL SECTIONS. I promise you no one cares about Pinterest watch. Why can’t apps just do what they do best instead of forcing us all to use the same apps all day long it’s ridiculous! You should move or get rid of Pinterest Watch and bring back individual sections and get rid of the loud video ads! What was wrong with photo ads??? Why are you doing this to your app?? What is wrong?

Fix the quick save- for the love of god. Used to be perfect until the update which removed the "top choices" section. Now the app is so inefficient it's almost unbearable. Really takes the joy out of using this app and I can't see myself using it much longer if it doesn't get fixed. The great thing about this app used to be how intuitive and easy it was. Now the update has taken away both of those things- might as well just save things to my computer files and drop the app entirely.

How could you not love it?. Pinterest is awesome and the app is super convenient!

Du gros bonheur. On m'a dit un jour "quand ça va pas bien, mets des belles images dans ta tête".....Pinterest sert a ca ! Mais il permet aussi quand ça va bien, de rêver, de se remplir la tête de beaux projets et de défis les plus stimulants, les uns des autres. Je suis une fan finie !! 😁

Liked the app until …. I have been enjoying the Pinterest app for a while, but when I am presented with a screen requesting my personal information (in this case my birthday) in order to be able to continue using the app, it makes no longer want to use this app. I have removed the app from my devices, and I hope others do the same.

Love this Pinterest. I really enjoy everything about it...

The the heck?….. New update one day ago and now I can't see or access my boards. If I try to save a pin I get a notice that 'it will be saved to my profile' or I can change. When I hit change it will pull up and show all my boards but it disappears as soon as I pick the board to save to….back to a useless blank……major error in the update. Can't find any help on the website at all. UPDATE: just got an 'update' to the app….STILL DOESN'T WORK…CANNOT ACCESS ANY OF MY BOARDS.

Please bring back the swipe right and left feature!. I don’t know why this feature would ever be removed. It’s akin to Instagram removing a scroll feature on the main feed - it makes no sense. That was the browse feature of the app. Having to click in and out if a pin to see if you like it is time consuming and makes being on the app far less enjoyable. Please stop ruining this app. This feature was already removed from web browsers years ago and that was crappy enough, now it’s only available on the phone app. I will quit Pinterest all together if it’s removed from there.

Review. I have been enjoying all the different subjects, ideas and crafts I found on Pinterest. Great selection!!

Used to be great. This app used to be my absolute favourite, spent a ton of time on there. It’s been destroyed by its developers, I have no idea why, but they have taken away every useful feature it had. My feed is now full of irrelevant pins and when I try to search I get the same links over and over, usually to stuff they want me to buy. When someone comes up with an app that does what Pinterest used to do, I’ll download it in a heartbeat.

Ad to content ratio. For every 2-4 searched pictures there is 1 large video ad. Boo! This app sucks; just use your browser.

Suggestion approved. Love this app it gives great suggestions on stuff you show an interest in which leads to things you would or may have passed. Keep up the great work and creating happy pinners.

Not working right. Can’t open pins. Just keep getting “more like this” pages.

Not today Pinterest. In no way should an app ask for my birthday to cater my ads. It should be based on my pins which it has been since I started using Pinterest. Thankfully I was able to delete my account without anymore information forcefully given to a site using it for god knows what.

Quick Save. I don’t know what’s going on with the new quick save feature but it’s not worth it. It seems to be interfering with the rest of the app experience. Since it’s introduction, I’ve been unable to see my boards and pins and have to constantly delete and re-download the app to make it work again and see my boards and pins.

I hate the new update. I’m a big Pinterest user. Spend several hours per day and I hate the new update. I spend most of my time scrolling Pinterest on my phone and with the new update it’s hard to save images and to view full screen a pin of interest. Please go back to previous version!!!

Loved it, but one problem. I absolutely loved Pinterest. It was an app that literally everything that I need help on, like drawing, cooking, painting, etc. It was going well and I was going to go back on it to look at a drawing method that I was going to show my friend, but it logged me out. I thought of it as nothing, so I logged back into my account, which was Abyssinky. I logged in, put my password, and it said something was wrong and that something happened and that they were sorry. I thought it would be fixed soon, but it still wasn’t. I put everything in correctly, since I wrote it on a sticky note because I’m a bit forgetful. It kept saying that something went wrong. I deleted the app, hoping for my data to be reset and that the problem would be over by now, but it kept showing up in red and saying it wasn’t working. I logged into another account to check if my Abyssinky account got deleted or something, but it was still there with all my boards. I had that account for about two months, and am a bit sad. I know it’s not your guy’s fault, that it might be a glitch in the system. But I do hope you see to this problem and that others see this review. Thank you for reading this!

love pinterest, but some problems/bugs. i LOVE pinterest, i use it everyday(or i did). there are so many cute videos, ideas, and posting is so much fun! these reason make me even more disappointed in what has happened. my pinterest was working wonderfully, with no bugs for a long time. after a while, it would stop loading, so i had to turn on airplane mode and turn it off again to reset my wifi. and that worked, but i would have to do it at least 20 times every hour or so. sometimes i would have to swipe away the app for it to work. today, it stopped working. it says i’m in my account, and i can see the “browse” and “watch” on top of my screen and the bar on the bottom, but it doesn’t work. it just keeps loading🥲. i tried doing the airplane mode, swiping it away, nothing. i even tried restarting my phone. nothing. this exact thing is happening to my sister too, and i don’t think that is a coincidence. our phones are pretty knew. we both have the iphone 11 and we got them January of 2022, so i don’t think my phone is the problem. please fix this, thanks for reading.

Wish it could be five stars.... ... but the app keeps freezing and crashing! My iPhone is completely up to date software-wise, and I’ve downloaded the latest version of the app, so that’s up to date, too. Now, I love Pinterest. It gives me ideas and let’s me enjoy my different fandoms and all kinds of stuff. I can get lost scrolling through my homepage for hours! Except, far too often, I’ll be happily scrolling along, pinning things to different boards, and everything freezes so I can neither keep going, not go back, nor exit the pin I was on to see the rest of the page. Sometimes I can go to another section of the app, like search or my profile, but a lot of times the screen goes black and won’t respond until I exit the app. And then, if I simply re-open the app it’s still frozen. I have to close out of it completely and re-start the app to see anything or have any interaction, and by then I’ve lost the pin I was on and I just have to hope I can find it again. It’s very frustrating! I’ve rage-quit Pinterest, something that seems impossible, but that happens at least once a week, because the freezing and the blank screen happens several times a day.

Gets worse with every update. Another major update and more changes that make zero sense. Why is that camera on the search bar?!? So frustrating to hit it every time I tap in that space to edit my search. But my major frustration is WHY DID YOU MAKE IT SO CUMBERSOME TO SEE COMMENTS AND PHOTOS?!? If i pick comments I don't want to see comments and then have to select again to see more comments. I don’t know who is making these decisions but I have a hard time believing they ever actually us this app. Original review: I was happy to see other complaining about some of the changes to Pinterest over time that have become sooo frustrating, but the one thing that really drives me nuts is the search function. I search for something rather specific "vintage shampoo bottles" and all I get in return are clothing pins and home design pins. Nothing at all related to my search? What the hell happened? It used to be fun to search on Pinterest but I guess I'll have to go back to google image searches to avoid all of your sponsored crap. If you need money just ask us to pay to remove ads for Pete's sake.

All pins section?. Where did the all pins section go, and why do these updates happen with no announcement? If this is a bug, then my b — I’ll come back & change this review. It just seems like such a strange and non-intuitive choice to take away the all pins section. There is no longer a way to see your own recent pins (instead you’d have to pick through each board to see what you’ve saved recently) or what other people have been pinning lately. “All pins” section just makes sense, that’s why y’all included it in the UI from the start. It makes it possible for us to navigate and access the content we’re saving, which is the whole point of Pinterest in the first place. Though Pinterest is one of my favorite apps, Pinterest’s updates to their UI have been the most frustrating to me of all the apps I have ever interacted with, to be completely honest. The changes never seem tailored to their users at all. I get the consumerist direction Pinterest is going, that’s literally fine by me because it’s understandable. But y’all could at least try a little harder to stay in tune with your user base and their use cases, since so many of these changes in design are tone deaf and completely out of the blue.

Oh.. Why bring the quick saves back? It was better without them, how can we tell if we saved that pin before or not it’ll involve clicking out of the photo and trying to save it to see. Advertisements are literally taking over and videos/shopping are at the top. I don’t want video/pictures to click into I want pictures to save, ideas to save not videos. I mean sometimes videos are okay I save them sometimes but they are repetitive videos at the top when looking for similar pictures, at least put them in the middle they are disruptive especially the ads when scrolling up. Fine! Keep the ads, get rid of the excessive video pop ups! I change my mind, so many excessive ads and random auto playing of advertisements, it’s too loud! Keep the videos! Also give us back pictures in comments, it’s an enjoyment to share especially art! Don’t take that away please! Update: Also, before the update into quick saves it was easier to save, didn’t have to scroll to the certain board I created. Now they are suggesting me my boards that I have that aren’t even nearly related to the photos I try to save…don’t even get me started on the automatic refresh when there are so many brilliant photos to be saved, I cry!🥲😂

Good but I need something’s changed back. I live the app don’t get me wrong but there I things I wish I could get back. Like when you add to a certain board, the most recent ones are up at the top. I have ADHD and none of my boards can go order when adding something. I also like it better when the save icon for products with links was higher. Where it was next to the links themselves. I started with the cons because they’re little. I love how you can organize items in the boards and how you can move them around. I do wish you had a button that can send you to the bottom and back up of your boards though. The sensitivity of the switching on something’s might be because of my phone or the Pinterest l, either way it’s frustrating when you saving something and it moves. I do wish we could change the theme of Pinterest such as changing the back ground on some areas. Also be able to change the app icon like other trending apps do now and days would also be great! I enjoyed this app for years and it’s great but there are things where I wish it could add it a little “SPICE”

Half the time, it doesn’t work!. Whether it’s on chrome mobile, chrome desktop, or either app, after pinning a bunch of pins, it simply stops working. I’ve cleared cashe, logged out, logged back in. After a while it will say “oops, you’ve been logging in a lot. Either wait 30 minutes or log in with Facebook or google.” It’s ridiculous! If I want to pin 100 times, why won’t it let me? I’ve seriously spent two days trying to pin 150 pins. I’ve only been able to pin 97. It’s like it doesn’t want you to use it or something! I agree with everything admod08 said in her “so sick of it” review. While browsing pics in chrome or safari, if you tap on the photo that is on Pinterest, it forces you to download the app. Then when you want to go back to the photos you were looking at, Pinterest takes you to the home page. I’ve gotten to the point where if I see a pic that says it’s on Pinterest, I just look over it and find a different pic. I hate how Pinterest has completely taken over everything. We have no control. It’s not very user friendly. You want to go to the website where the pic is, and it’s so hard to figure out what to tap, that half the time I can’t find the website. It takes me to other pins or to the homepage of the person who pinned it. I just want to go to the bloody website where the original pic is!

Pinterest Problems - Sep 2017. After pinterest updated on the 28th I’ve been having an irrevocably troublesome time quickly pinning things to my own boards. The feature that’s activated through pressing and holding a pin pulls up several smaller icons that allow for different functionality. I’ve become accustomed to pressing and holding to immediately put something onto a board because everything used to be familiar. Now after the update, the main feed has several new icons that appear alongside the previous ones when pressing and holding, and because of this, I have permanently hidden pins that I would’ve originally added to my boards because apparently, SOMEBODY thought it was a good idea to put the “HIDE PIN” icon in the exact same location as the previous “SAVE PIN”icon. Further more, there appears to be no clear and straightforward way to undo any of the hidden pins which is frustrating for me, someone who has gotten used to pinterest’s old way of doing things! Lol Pinterest is a fine app for inspiration but the interface definitely needs to be rethought again.

Commenting on pins needs to be fixed. I’m not sure if it’s the same on computers, but on mobile, the comments really need to improve. When you want to reply to someone’s comment, you can, but if you want to reply to someone’s comment on another person’s comment, you have to manually put the “@“ and write out their whole name. And most of the time this doesn’t even work because their name either has a space in it or their name won’t show up for some reason! Another problem with the comments is that when you reply to someone’s comment and someone tries to reply to you within that comment, you get the notification saying like “oh, so-and-so replied to your comment,” but when you click on that notification, it won’t take you to the comment, so there’s no way for you to see it unless you somehow know exactly which pin your comment was on, then go on a whole scavenger hunt to find that one pin that you probably didn’t even save. I really hope this gets fixed because I really like have conversations with people in the comment section. And on top of it getting fixed, I want Pinterest to add a feature that lets you see all the pins you’ve commented on, like how Twitter has the “Tweets & Replies” option.

I’ve lost respect for Pinterest. This has always been my favorite app, however they are making such a heavy push to minimize it, it’s no longer enjoyable. My main issue is that I used to be able to see a list of all of my pins in order of most recent (excluding those on secret boards) in one place without having to look at each board. With the new update, I am only able to see recent pins that have prices or links to buy associated with them. This is frustrating and incredibly disappointing. For the developers: many people including myself use Pinterest to research items before buying, but when you take away its ability to also be a creative platform to look back through, your fan base will slowly stop using your app. Another frustration is adding sound that cannot be turned off to advertisement pins in addition to taking up 4 pins with of space and making them move. If it wasn’t clear, your users will not buy things they don’t want and spamming their feeds to a point where the app becomes barley enjoyable will not increase your user base, it will deplete it. Make an effort to find balance here, as you’ve clearly lost it.

Board sections finally came and are amazing!!! (Need a couple fixes though). I’ve been asking for sub-boards for years and Pinterest finally delivered! Although you previously had keyword terms show up in boards, you couldn’t create your own, so it wasn’t as great. But now you can! The only bad thing though is I’m seeing a few glitches on mine. Since we can create our own sections within boards, I tried to combine a couple of my original boards into sections on just 1 board. I noticed that every time you edited the location of a group of pins from one board to another, you had to close back out of the app afterwords because the other board wouldn’t appear in the new destination list when you tried to switch some more over again. Then, since I thought all of the pins from one board had successfully been moved to the other board, I deleted the original, only to find out for some reason that they hadn’t actually been moved to the other one. I lost an entire board today😢 please fix! Also maybe have suggestions as to which pins belong in which sections? Other than that though, the new feature is great.

Requirements. I’m not giving my birthdate for anyone’s app. It is too risky in today’s technology universe in spite of your ability or no ability to keep our info private. The less our info is put out there the fewer hacks there will be. #1)You obviously have all the data you need from me as I’ve been using Pinterest for many years now. I do not see how that date is relevant to your explanation that…#2) ”we collect this info to help provide a better experience for the younger people in our community.” You’ve given no explanation on number 2…#3) how does it have anything to do with the younger community.🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️I don’t need the help to personalize my “recommendations & ads”. #4) Over the years I have had only two recommendations…A.) A way to alphabetize our boards; you did that, TY Pinterest. B.) The other recommendation was to install a “button” or whatever for language translations, you have not NOT done that. Thank you for listening. Take the lock off of my Pinterest page that requests a birthdate. I’m not giving that to you and I need access my pins, now.

This Pinterest is doing better. Pinterest is a great place to look at images and find new ideas. However with every update you never know what is going to change for the better or worse. The last couple have been for the better, but before that it seemed like many of the updates took away something I enjoyed about the app unexpectedly. I like the change back to showing who saved each pin on my main dash. I also appreciate the new board sections. I do not mind the picked for me pins to some extent, but I prefer the pins from the boards I have followed. I didn't like it when they changed the way a pin would show how many times someone save a pin from a specific board to all the boards that it has ever been saved to, but I got used to it and it turned out to be better. However taking that away helps no one. I do not care how many times a pin has been saved if I can't see what boards it has been saved to. I would appreciate it if the updates told me what was changing. I don’t like being scared to update because I have no idea when there is going to be another change that will go against my enjoyment of the app.

Too many ads and unrelated content. Update 2/7/20: now, I can’t even use the app to PIN things, the entire purpose of the app, because the share button is not working, and whatever idiot is in charge of updates also removed the add from website option directly on the app. If I knew of something else like this app, I would use it instead. PINTEREST, you need to look back at how your app was about 2 years ago, and reformat it that way. It was better. People miss it. Every update for the past year has been a change for the worse. Ever since the last 2 or 3 iPhone updates, this app crashes every time I go to one of my own boards. If I actually open a pin in my feed, when I go back it refreshes and I lose whatever I wanted to look at next. I’m often hesitant to actually pin things because my feed will show me anything and everything the algorithm thinks relates to it whether I want it or not. They have rendered following boards you like nearly useless, as the following feed is just one big picture after another rather than like a pin board so you can’t really see what’s going on. I’d rather see it in the same format as my regular feed as their pins are what I actually want to see. And FFS can it stop showing me the same crap over and over again after I’ve already said it wasn’t relevant to me?

Great app, bad new update.. Hey, I love Pinterest! I have been using it for a few years with no complains until recently. The new update restricting teenagers from using boards with multiple people had made the app less fun. I have many boards with my friends that we love saving pins to, but we can’t use them anymore. The only we we could still have shared boards is by making new accounts as “adults” but my friends don’t necessarily want to desert their current accounts. I understand and appreciate wanting to keep teens safe online. However this isn’t really helping. Pinterest isn't the typical social media app, there isn’t a lot of interacting with other people compared to others. Within group boards, you don’t even communicate directly with other people, all you do is save pins. The only “harmful” thing that could happen is someone saving an offensive pin, which could be prevented by having some form of community guidelines about pin posting. There really isn’t anything bad or harmful about group boards. Please consider giving back that feature, otherwise, let me know what the real reason for restricting these boards were since I cant see how group boards are harmful to teen safety. Thanks!

Don’t like new changes. I love Pinterest, but it’s getting ridiculous. Me and my friend spend all day messaging pins back in forth, but since the new spam rules have been set, I can only send 2 things to her before I get blocked. Here’s how it works, if they get annoyed with me, have an option where they can block me, DONT JUST DO IT FOR THEM! And what is with the ads and pins that I’m not even into? Are you even trying anymore Pinterest? Just cause I’m fat doesn’t mean every other ad should support plus sized women’s clothing(which I’ve never looked up on Pinterest so how they even figured out I’m plus sized is a mystery to me) and just because I like a certain topic doesn’t mean I don’t want to see pins from other boards that don’t always see eye to eye with me. That’s why I used to love Pinterest so much, because I could follow boards by other users with similar tastes, and if I wanted to explore into other people’s boards, I’d type something into search like “horses” and look at the pins, found user I liked and followed their boards so their stuff would pop up more in my feed. Please get back on you A game Pinterest! I’ll take this post down when you fix the spam thing!

Terrible customer service and app performance. Misrepresentation of maximum allowable store pins.. For the las several months I’ve consistently tried to understand how the Pinterest can misrepresent the maximum number of stored pins as being 200,000 The embarrassing Pinterest app algorithm doesn’t send error message prior any such 200,000 pin limit. It allowed 55,000 additional pins to saved before an error message was sent to user that they reached their number of stored pins. Meanwhile, the number of boards allowed has increased four fold? That’s absurd. The capricious response to question about why someone is forced to tear six years of work because the app developers didn’t include a basic feature that prevents any pin count over the alleged 200,000 pin limit. Just so I’m clear the solution to this problem issue is do nothing but adopt intransigence as customer service tool. The poor performance behavior of Pinterest app isn’t the burden of the user. The ethical response to the problem is to add a solution to the problem in Pinterest app feature, not insult the intelligence of career customer service reps like myself. What I described was clear example of maxim, you get what you pay for. My phone could never get away with redundancy and deflection as response to horrible lack foresight by Pinterest app developers.

following. the statement below was my previous rating, till I realized that Pinterest created an old-school space under the "following" tag where I only see images from people I'm following... exactly why people fell in love with Pinterest to begin with. thank you so much for going back to the basics, and even though you still have these whack ads, they're on the "home" section, not the "following" one, so yay!!! please don't muck it up with ads on the "following" section. what you did is genius, and now everyone should be happy. old review: why, Pinterest? why? I don't understand why you continue to push pins from people I don't follow. I don't follow them for a reason. don't you understand that pinterest is visual therapy for many, that is, they log in and get much relief from seeing all the ideas they've pinned as well as pins from people or boards they follow. but then we see ugly images that are supposedly taken from our own interests, and they muck up the whole flow of image therapy. then I have to click "hide" one image after the other after the other until I get so sick and tired of seeing the same ugly pics and just close the app. you guys are whack.

Favorite app that fell down hill.. I don’t know how to explain that I LOVED this app back in 2019 when the app was good. But now they’ve added too many USELESS features and layout changed that are frustrating. I liked how Pinterest before used to be very simple and minimalist. They used to have it when on the main feed (home) at the top you can swipe between pins and I loved that till you guys put “watch”. About Watch… it’s really annoying to scroll on your feed and see a cute pin for it to be a freaking TikTok/Reel?!? And it’s annoying that half of my feed is it now. They they got rid of the top feed for this stupid watch. Then they put Pinterest TV which was cool but useless. But I still want the swiping between pins. That brings me to how you moved the alerts/messages to the top right. While all those annoying changed that no one uses you decided let’s make the bottom icons (home,search,post,profile) fill up the bottom. It used to float which was nice. Also the shopping thing is annoying Pinterest has a good shopping platform but they should learn from instagram and see that it doesn’t do well. Obviously every app has to change but these changes have made the app too cluttered and annoying to use.

Sooooo buggy 😖. I’ve been using Pinterest for, now I can honestly say 10 years in 2023, and ever since this new update happened it’s like the app doesn’t know how to hold itself up. It freezes and lags often and when I want to look at all of my boards they don’t all show up. If I want to see all of the boards I created I have to scroll past the 6 that are on top, scroll half way through my unorganized ideas, and only after my profile page glitches and I’m brought back to the top can I view all of my boards. It’s a huge problem that has prompted me to use the app significantly less over time. Another thing is when I get a low battery notification my entire home page will refresh and ideas will disappear after I click “okay.” That doesn’t make any sense at all. Also, let us post pictures in the comments again! There isn’t a single craft/ recipe/ idea I haven’t seen where there’s at least one person saying “I wish I could show you guys a picture, it came out great.” The Pinterest community overall has its issues just like any but we really love sharing ideas and our experiences we had trying out different pins, it’s why we fell it love with it in the first place. Bring back some of the simplicity!

Where do I begin. I have used Pinterest for years. And it used to be so great, i found it so relaxing, this is the only app that I consistently use. What happened to you?! 1) the ads are so suffocating, I absolutely hate them. They make it where unless you are on your personal boards that you’ve pinned, you cannot not see ads. I miss when you used to be able to search something and on the top of the screen would be more ideas to help “pin” point what you specifically are looking for. I would pay to have ads removed or least see way less then there is. 2) there’s been this annoying thing where you can’t swipe down on a pin to exit out, now you have to reach over to the other side of your screen to exit out, it’s like a workout for your arm just to get out of a pin. 3) when I want to look at one of the sections that I use to organize within my board, it does this thing where I’ll be scrolling and then my finger exits the section. Then I have to start over from the beginning and scroll to see what I was looking for. 4) the costumer support is terrible. You would think that a company would care what there consumers have to say since they are the ones they use the app, and without them Pinterest wouldn’t exist. I feel like they don’t care, and they don’t ever explain anything to you. Old Pinterest please please come back.

love this app, hate the new update. I love this app and use it for almost everything, and my boards and pins saved are really important to me. i’ve been using it for almost three years, and in that time i made a different account for a different reason. i added myself to some of my original boards. a few weeks later, that new account was deactivated so i went back to using my main. when the account closed, i assumed it was off the boards i had added it to because i couldn’t try to remove it without the app glitching and sending me back to the home page. i didn’t think much of it until yesterday, when i opened the app to find that all of my boards which i had previously “collaborated” with myself on were “temporarily disabled”. there is no way to remove my old account from them and now i cannot access boards that i rely on or just use consistently. it just tells me the board is currently disabled and links a page to the new updates, where it talks about teen safety but does not indicate why my board is disabled or how to solve this problem. i absolutely understand the importance of safety on the platform, but i, along with many other people, am not being unsafe in any way in the platform, i just want my boards back. i love this app, but this is very frustrating and disappointing. please fix this.

Good, but Inconsistent. I love pinterest and I think the new layout is quite interesting... However, there are many essential qualities of this app that I’ve carried issues with for a long time now. The inconsistency of their effectiveness, for one, is major. Sometimes I’ll get a notification on my phone saying someone has commented or saved one of my pins... But after opening the app and checking the notifications tab I’ll find nothing at all. This doesn’t always happen but usually it does and I find it super annoying. Another example of this issue with inconsistencies— or perhaps simply an issue in general—is when I DO manage to receive a notification from someone liking or responding to my comments on pins. Upon clicking on this notification I am not directed to the actual pin itself— but merely a non-interactive image of the pin with the comment section below it. Once again, it doesn’t always happen but is especially frustrating when I want to save this pin to another board or perhaps haven’t saved it at all and wish to do so... Yet I am unable to and my only resort is to take a screenshot and search it up on my own terms. (Even then it’s almost always unsuccessful.) Like I said, Pinterest is a great app with good means— but it is small annoyances like the ones aforementioned that keep me from calling it perfect.

Not the same anymore. I’ve been using Pinterest since the beginning, when it was invite-only. I planned my wedding with Pinterest, I stumbled onto so many cool ideas and life hacks and interesting people... Pinterest legit made my life *better.* Now I hardly use the app at all. It’s almost all ads, and I hardy ever see content from the people I follow. Even worse is the search function, which is... pathetic, to say the least. Pinterest used to be fantastic for helping me find inspiring images and links for just about *anything* I was looking for; now searches only yield a handful of results, all of which are ads, *none* of which are actually relevant to my search. I’ve been using Google image search a lot more now. Pinterest has become essentially useless to me. I’m not seeing content I like, I’m not able to search for content I like, and with so many ads, the “social” aspect of this so-called “social media platform” is nonexistent. Seriously, what’s the point? I’m holding out hope that developers will take critiques like this seriously and restore some of the functions that made Pinterest such a great app, but... I’m losing patience. If things don’t get better I’ll probably just delete the app and save space on my phone... why keep a useless app around?

Beginning to become disappointed... look, i am an avid Pinterest defender. i believe it is one of the most useful and aesthetically pleasing apps out there and has a format that is simple enough to get used to. but over the last year or so i’ve been getting disappointed in the newer updates. im all for change and growing as a company and moving with the industry, but Pinterest used to be able to cater and filter specifically to pictures and pins that i was searching for. i think thats what made Pinterest so easy to enjoy and find glee in making boards. i really liked the feature of making your profile as one of your existing boards and then boom, that feature seems to have just been removed completely and if you change it to something new you can’t remove the cover at all. and the small topic/tabs being completely removed from searches and making it so difficult to find specific pins. its just the small details that are coming and going without reason. i used to really love this app and i still do but it is just so frustrating. i really hope there can be improvements in the future because all this is causing is me to be constantly frustrated with the app.

I love Pinterest, hate the update. Okay. I’ve had Pinterest on various accounts for the past 5 or so years. I love it, however the update completely killed the purpose of it for me. I used to spend hours adding pins to my favorite boards by using the quick add feature (you know how there was a top bar which you could use to click through your boards and it would suggest pins for it) HOWEVER, Pinterest decided to remove that feature and replace it with a walmart version of tiktok. I miss being able to click through super easily and adding lovely art or recipes. yes, i understand that you can still go to your boards and click the ‘more ideas’ icon, but it’s just filled with videos and not photographs. I understand that pinterest is trying to get the younger targeted audience to attract to it, however i want the old pinterest back! hey, and i’m in the target audience anyway (14). and also, if we wanted to watch tiktok, we would go on tiktok! i go on pinterest to find inspiration to do things and to organize my ideas. anyway, i guess i’m done with my review~ please consider this in your next update. Hopefully my review will go back to 5 stars.

Love Love Love Pinterest, FYI Version 7.41.2 Bug. I love Pinterest. I’ve been using it almost every day for over 7 years. Love the App! It’s only gotten. Better Love the content and the concepts! I love the algorithm, always shows me perfectly related searches and ideas for crafts for look books! I’m able to collaborate with people and create coordinated projects. I use it for vision boarding my goals, picking an outfit in the morning, and putting together my dreams! It’s very easy to use! Very forgiving of any mistakes I make with my fat fingers. One bug. In version 7.41.2 the app keeps freezing on me. I’ll be scrolling and my screen will freeze and the app will, after a couple minutes of fighting, shut down. Or I’ll be in a post and it’s just unresponsive. When this happens I usually close it, open another app and it’s working fine, my phone isn’t frozen so I give Pinterest a moment and it works again but it’s been happening almost every time I open the app! Never got a bug like this that lasted this long, usually you guys are good at sending updates to catch them in time before I loose my mind. Update soon please!! Keep up the good work

Better before the updates. I’ve been a loyal Pinterest user since I was sixteen years old. I’ve always found new ideas, inspiration, and even just good pics on there. And then the app updated. Now I see videos and tiktoks all recommended for me. Instead of swiping left on my pinterest homescreen to see more ideas for my boards, I now can swipe left to watch tiktok-like shorts- just like on every other social media platform now. The reason I’ve been so loyal to pinterest was because it was unlike every other platform. But now I’m realizing that they’re apparently not. I honestly don’t care if other people want to collect videos - good for you - but pinterest was started as a diy and picture collecting site, not as a place to watch things (some of you may remember the old days when gifs were even hard to find on the old ‘rest). I guess I’m more disappointed than anything. After years of having the app on my phone, I’ve just recently begun contemplating deletion simply to escape the temptation of getting stuck in a seemingly endless loop of fifteen-second videos. Very disappointed that this is what the app has become.

I love it but hope the developer reads this. I love Pinterest. I love the craftiness, the free patterns, recipes, and DIY stuff! Truly, Pinterest has given me weeks’ worth of sewing patterns for doll clothes, helped me kill ants and fruit flies, and FINALLY get a smeary film of a huge mirror. I just have one request. We used to be able to report broken links. That has disappeared, with at least the last few updates. Now we can report pins, for all manner of politically correct reasons (bullying, harassment, etc.), yet can’t just tell you when it doesn’t work. In my years using Pinterest, I have only ever had three types of reports to make: when a link is broken; when it sends you to a page that does not contain what you asctally clicked on; or my biggest beef— when the pin promises free pattern or instructions, and you click on it and wade through a dozen ads, only to reach the comment at the bottom, “Sorry, tha pattern is no longer available for free!” Those pins should be reported and their content pulled. I don’t appreciate false advertising. And Pinterest does not even let users report those things. Thanks for listening.

Advertisement links are too sensitive. I like Pinterest for the most part, but when I am scrolling through and swiping the screen to do so, if my finger touches an add, it opens up instead of continuing to just scroll along. Very annoying! The adds are mixed in with all of the other pins, but they are clearly designed to open much more easily than the regular pins. Regular pins don’t open up accidentally just from scrolling along. This bothers me because of how everything we do on our devices is tracked and recorded so these companies can try to build a history of our interests to try to target us with adds. So When I am unintentionally opening adds that I don’t care about, I am being targeted with adds that don’t pertain to me. In other words, the digital history of what I click on is distorted, and therefore, whoever is collecting this data is not getting an accurate depiction of me. It’s a glitch in the matrix. They are taking the greedy approach and forcing adds onto us that we don’t want, and over time it will mess up their targeting system. This is probably why as a 35 year old male, I get adds trying to sell me products for menopause.

How my day just gets better!. Since really joining Pinterest, not just sneaking onto the site now and then, I have become a bigger person in heart and soul. Not just counting the extra fat on my bottom that seems to grow bigger and bigger because of the ‘Rona virus and me just sitting on it. Any fat around my waist is also because of the that virus but here I need to put blame where blame is due. ON ME! But just a little on Pinterest too...because I become glued to the site for hours on end, looking at pictures of wonderful foods...I swear they just leave the internet screen and absorb right into my body. Really it doesn’t happen that way. Joking people, just joking. But not about the becoming absorbed in the subject matter. It is such a wonderful site that takes me away from everything for awhile. Thank you Pinterest, a heartfelt thank you for all the deliciousness I see, the beautiful art, the intricate sewing, the gorgeous quilting and paperwork, the ‘everything’ to see with just the tap of a button. How fortunate we are to view things from our very own country and the countries of other like individuals. What an honor. I am honored. Thank you.

“Pin stats” menu is in a distracting place.. for business accounts, the “pin stats” menu is super annoying and distracting. i do not find it very appealing that it’s constantly visible while viewing my pins. it gets really frustrating when i’m just trying to scroll through the pins i’ve published, but instead have numbers in my face. while it’s a helpful tool for business accounts to track their interactions and engagements, i don’t think it’s necessary for it to constantly be there while viewing a pin i’ve published. as an owner of a business account and frequent pinterest user, i would appreciate it if there’s a way to hide the “Pin stats” bar, or at least put it in a drop down menu so it only shows up when you actually /want/ to look at your statistics. also, i changed my review to 3 stars, as the “hide pin” button is STILL in a horrible spot— right above the “download image” button. this is such a horrible design flaw and i can’t believe it’s been overlooked by the developers for this long. i imagine it would be an easy fix, just put the hide pin button someplace else!! i’m not sure if anyone on the pinterest team even reads the reviews, but please don’t take my considerations lightly.

Frustrating Turn For The Worst. I’ve used Pinterest from the beginning. I used it for almost every aspect of my life from pinning teaching ideas to holiday crafts to recipes and self care. The recent updates to turn it into primarily a shopping app are outrageously frustrating. I can’t search for anything anymore. I went to try to find ideas for sewing projects, beaded bracelet ideas, IVF organization and it’s all just products products products from big box stores. That’s not inspiration, I know about Target already thank you. They also removed the feature where you could search for other users boards from the app. I used to find the best ideas from searching users boards, like seeing what others had on their “camping” or “mending” boards for example but now you have to be so specific and you can only see sponsored single posts it makes it hard to discover anything new. It’s just unbelievable that now when I search for something like “jewelry projects” or “sewing projects” I just get a million Etsy and Michaels listings for already made projects. Completely useless and I’m so irritated. I’m sad that the golden days of Pinterest were I would turn to it for everything seem to have passed.

Visual search paradise. As a visual person, Pinterest is a remarkable resource for seeking out really anything my heart desires. I used to “google” things when I had a question, but as far as quick answers are concerned, Pinterest is definitely my go to. From recipes, crafts, building ideas and pure scrolling entertainment, it is a fantastic venue to save and catalog your ideas. I love how blogs and businesses can share their best practices and products directly to their actively looking audience. As you can tell by the magnitude of my pins, I have found more than I was looking for! I love Pinterest and think they carved a perfect niche for themselves out of the bustling infrastructure of the web and I am glad they did. If I could change anything, I would get rid of the new system of uninvited ads bombarding the search content, especially the oversized video plugs. They litter the searches and belittle the organic marketing that has been fostered here. I still enjoy the purpose and function of the platform and appreciate the ease at which I am able to find what I need... now back to figuring out what to do with cantaloupe seeds.

This app is the BEST app ever for boomers like me. This app has changed my life by becoming a lit boomer as my kids say. I learned how to hit the whip and now i do it everywhere I go and even hit the whip on my lit kids. This app has taught me how to make some baller chocolate chip cookies and ever since i learned how to make these baller chocolate chip cookies my kids say “ I am the best boomer mom ever. “ This app also taught me how to do tik tok dances like Charli D’Melio and Addison Rae. I now do the renegade in public and get told I am crazy but i alwyas tell the people sorry you can’t be a lit boomer like me. I even learned new bedroom ideas like Teenage Mutant Turtles bedrooms to Lighting Mcqueen bedrooms for my son who is failing classes.( My son is 20) I learned new ideas like bedrooms for my daughter who is 28 and has NO JOB and the ideas are like Little mermaid bedrooms and Princesses Bedrooms. I even learned new songs like No Idea by Don Toliver and Out West by Travis Scott and btw those songs slap as my kids would say. This is my end of my review and my name is Karen and I am a lit boomer and I would like to tell everyone on Pinterest that you are lit and cool and Pinterest is the best app. Thank you.

awesome but. hi! i love pinterest, i’ve been using it since like 2012 when i got my first ipod touch. It’s been awesome and i have like, a gazillion boards for fashion and art references and nerdy projects and i love it BUUUTTTT ya’ll switched up the way we choose the board we’re saving a pin to and i am not okay. I had the max number of boards (150?) and then when the max number rose i’ve continued to make more and more boards and honestly??? manually scrolling past every single board i’ve made since i was 14 instead of the alphabet slider is TOUGH but then to top it off, whenever i pass the board im looking for, when i try to scroll up it just closes the whole screen and im back starting at the pin i wanted to save but couldn’t. It is such a hassle and the select-a-board screen is so sensitive that sometimes it takes me like 3-4 tries to pin something. and when i use a board that has a ton of sections in it, i have to successfully navigate the new way to pin things ✨twice✨ to actually pin something. I’m in my 20s, i grew up on tech, im not dumb. please at least make the slider less sensitive, and i’d really appreciate getting the alphabet slider back. i’m dying 🥺

Starting to dislike Pinterest overall. This is more about Pinterest itself than the app. Every fourth or so pin in my feed is an ad now, so the platform is pretty much useless to me because all I can think about as I’m scrolling is if I’m looking at another ad or not because I kept accidentally clicking them, which then takes me to the ad provider’s website page and away from my Pinterest feed. This to me almost feels like a strategy Pinterest is using: more ads = more people clicking the ads = more revenue. While I understand the mindset behind ad revenue and don’t disagree with it, Pinterest incorporates way too many ads to the point that it’s excessive and not as fun of a platform as it used to be. I can barely look at the pins by users I wanted to actually follow without seeing the same ads over and over again. I don’t know if it’s as many ads on the computer or not, but I definitely won’t be using this app again anytime soon. I’m disappointed in what Pinterest has become, and a happy medium needs to be found for how many ads are in user feeds. I’ll be using Instagram as my source of learning about new products and experiences from now on, benefits I used to get from using Pinterest. While Instagram has ads, they aren’t nearly as frequent and irritating as those on Pinterest.

One of my favorite apps!. I love Pinterest, but I’ve noticed lately that whenever I try to save a pin, it doesn’t always recommend the right boards. Like what I mean is I will scroll down my home feed and save like 5+ pins to my Tom Holland board (lol) but then if I save like one Steven Universe pin I have to scroll all the way down to that board because other random boards are recommended for me and save it there. And then if I try to save another Tom Holland pin, it STILL won’t recognize that I’m saving a pin of him and I have to scroooooll all the way down again. I know I probably sound very high maintenance saying this, but around two months ago, I never had this problem. It just appeared recently. It’s still one of my favorite apps, but this has made it sort of annoying. I used to be able to save anything from Lapel Pins, to Steven Universe, to Drawings, to Funny, and they would be the top suggested boards. It’s not like most of my boards are new, which I was thinking may mess up whatever algorithm they’re using because the app needs to get adjusted to that new board. I just don’t know, but it’s not like he problem prevents me from using the app, so I’m good.

Love Pinterest, Not Updates. I used to use Pinterest more than any other social media but since these latest updates I’ve been using it less and less. Every time I pin something, 75% of the following pins are the same subject or even the same pin repeated. I like how the app is recognizing my interests but I can’t keep my followers over the same chicken recipe. I also miss the circles in the bottom corner since it was able to easily see some related pins without getting lost in the “more like this” pages. It was also nice to see who pinned what on the homepage so I can continue to follow people who use the app and unfollow people who no longer do without having to go onto every pinner’s page. Something that Pinterest doesn’t have that I have been craving sense the beginning: SUB-BOARDS!!!! I hate going onto someone’s page and they have over 100 boards and at least 10 are the same subject. With sub-boards pinners could follow and create one board and use smaller boards within the maim board for sub-categories. Say drinks for example and the sub-boards would be alcoholic beverages, smoothies, infusions, etc. Our pages would be so organized and things would be even easier to find with such large boards.

i love this app, but the updates.... listen, i use this app almost daily and i really love the variety of all the content i could find! and one of the latest updates could allow you to switch between two or more accounts, which is all i had wanted for the longest time (i have a school account for projects and a personal one for my own interests). great! right? but as soon as i switched back to my personal account, the algorithm just GAVE UP on me. it was only makeup, nothing that was from any of my followers, i couldn’t understand what was happening. i went to my settings and removed “makeup” from my interests (apparently that was the only one i had), thinking my feed would go back to normal and suggest things i liked that were similar to the previous things i saved. nope. my feed is now blank. if i want to find content similar to my boards, i’d have to search for similar pins to something i already have. it’s less convenient and i don’t want to reselect the things i’m into. my school account has no problem with this! therefore, i know it’s a bug. please fix it.

I love Pinterest but this is getting annoying. So Pinterest is an amazing app and I love it but some things on here really need to be worked on. I use this app every day to get inspiration for all sorts of things and while I’m looking through pins and I find one I like I’ll click on it to look at it in more detail and the entire app will freeze. So then I have to restart the app and even then it’s stupid because the pin I liked and was looking at is no longer there anymore. Next, when I go to post in a community I’ll click on the “start a discussion..” text bar and the the app will crash and take me back to my home screen. I’ve done everything I could to see if maybe it was just my phone, but no, it’s the app. It crashes when I go to post in communities, every time.🙃 lastly, I’ll be on my feed or whatever tab and then suddenly the screen turns completely white and all the pins and everything off my feed disappears. Normally I can fix this by going to another tab and then going back to the tab that was blank and then it’ll work fine, but it’ll automatically reload the page and the pins I was looking at before the screen turned blank aren’t there anymore. like I said. I love this app, but this is getting real annoying, real quick. Kinda makes me wanna delete it sometimes.

Please STOP the Bad Redesigns. I love Pinterest and I use it almost every day—which is the only reason I’m taking the time to write this review. Seems like (pretty major) changes to the UI/UX have been constant recently. It’s frustrating to have to figure out the differences so frequently. Beyond that, they’re just strange. It continues to get more difficult/complicated to add a new pin at all (even more so from a web link)—why would you redesign something that makes features of your app more frustrating to use? Especially when you push the browser button so heavily for use on desktops... why make the closest equivalent on the mobile app so hidden and take so many extra “taps”? Visually, the design of the individual pin view is just so odd and nonsensical to me. Why does each section need to be so entirely separate? Why waste so much space with these huge rounded corners? It makes it a visually cluttered experience. Also, sometimes I want to pin a particular image to multiple boards because it fits in multiple places for me. Recent updates have made doing so more difficult and frustrating. I guess maybe I’m in a minority for that one, but generally taking a scolding/patronizing tone with your users seems like a poor choice.

story pins⭕️. hello! so I just wanted to start off by saying that I love pinterest! it has a much more friendly environment compared to other social media apps and has a nice format. my only issue with the app is the new feature story pins. I gained access to them on my business account, and I noticed a few things at first. the first asset I would consider changing is only ebig able to access them on a business account. I really wish that you could request them and create on a personal. the second issue with story pins is that I can't create them any more on the mobile app (I am using an iPhone 5s). I was seeing to create them for a month or two, but now when I tap "create story pin" pinterest says that I can't create them because I'm not updated. I know that I am updated fully on pinterest, because I was able to create before and I've checked on the App Store that there aren't any new installs. I can only create them on the desktop version of pinterest. this is fine- it isn't as easy but it works. however, on the desktop version there isn't an option to tag someone in the pin (not the description). it would be helpful if you fixed this issue. otherwise, pinterest is an amazing app! thank you!

The Algorithms Have Really Gone Downhill. I have used Pinterest for over ten years. I have loved this app/website. There is nothing else like it. Over the last couple of years, though, my feed quality has really suffered. I used to see new pins based on every one of my interests, which I had carefully cultivated. I could go months without seeing the same pin twice, and my feed was full of variety and color. Now, my feed seems to be based only on recent activity, so if I only pin to three boards over a few days or a week, I will only see content related to those three boards with maybe 1/20 being outside of those topics. If I only pin from my home feed, that means that I’m reinforcing this funnel until my home feed looks the same every single day. If I pass over a pin without saving it, it can show up in my feed again and again, making things feel stale. I’ll also see pins related to topics I don’t like, but even though I hide it, that topic will show up in my feed again and again as if I had never touched it. Also, when I do a search I’ll only get a few pages’ worth of related pins before it starts looking like my home feed, with results that have nothing to do with what I’m searching for. I still use the app because there’s no other available resource like it, but it’s no longer my favorite place for inspiration.

Unnecessarily censored. It might be that I am just getting used to these type of social media formats, but I was hoping to find more art nudes, interesting photography/photographers, experimental works, and perhaps links to auctions, galleries, etc... I joined having searched for an artist whose only bio was linked to Pinterest. This phobia of nudity or nude photography being considered pornography almost has the opposite intent: de legitimizes formats with the best “intentions” for random queries with no sense of values, aesthetics, social, or otherwise. Access to art is more important ultimately I am learning in this strange social experiment of internet media shuffle fraught with so much garbage. What we permit in terms of violence in both media and society, in pornographic policy making should be of greater concern than exposure to the many forms the human body presents as a muse and as artistic expression itself. As was always the case, Art follows nature. And if not, it is our nature. So silly and tiring does this game then become. I can’t participate in something so full of itself that pretends to be on a higher ground only to literally cover its buttocks ( breast’s, vagina, etc...). Maybe there was something I missed, but it seemed like a very deliberate decision and as a store of images, art, commerce, I can’t in good conscience support it.

Great app and endlessly entertaining. Used to be 5 stars. Lowered it because I do not like that some ads play sound. I am trying to browse on a bus or something when all of a sudden it blasts out this ad for a tv show. Very embarrassing. I love Pinterest because every time you open it there is something new to look at. There’s a never ending amount of things to see. Your feed is totally customizable so you can see things you’re interested in and avoid things you’re not. If Pinterest shows you something you’re not interested in you just say I don’t want to see things like that and it learns your preferences. You can keep everything you see saved on boards organized however you want. I don’t even have any other apps on my phone for entertainment except Pinterest because nothing else compares!! Also, you don’t have to be a girl to use Pinterest! There’s tons of guy things from cars to fishing and hunting to at home DIY projects. You can use Pinterest for literally everything in your life whether it’s cooking or clothes or entertainment or nature or music, it doesn’t matter.... it has everything!! Do not like the new borders around the pins when you open them.

No help from Pinterest. Tech support does not exist. Unlike other apps, I cannot communicate with anyone. It’s not the first time I’ve tried to contact Pinterest. After 1-2 weeks I receive emails (paraphrased), “We haven’t heard from you so we assume the problem has been fixed.” I’ve tried to reply. Nothing has ever been fixed. When requesting help, I’m limited to entering their selection of the issue message: Renaming a Board. Because I had to choose from their list (“Other” is not included), I know I will receive a canned response on how to edit a board. I have edited boards but this is the first time I’ve experienced this glitch: I could not reorder pins on a board. I made a backup board and moved my pins to it. I DELETED the original board but cannot rename my backup: “You already have a board with that name.” After several attempts I removed and reinstalled the app. I continue to see “You already have a board with that name.” Update: Pinterest responded! Even though the original board was deleted, it takes [2 weeks?] for their system to recognize a new board by that name. However, re-pinning numerous pins to a (temporarily) new board is impractical. One would hope there’s a better solution. One would dare to hope Pinterest reveals it.

Please fix your app.. I love pinterest, but the updates and glitches sometimes make me want to delete it. One problem I have is that when you click to see comments, it will say “one more” or however many comments there are on a pin, but when you click it none of them appear. Pinterest also removed the feature where you can comments pictures which is also really annoying because they made the comments worse instead of fixing them. Aside from that, they keep adding more useless updates and updates that would be good if they actually worked. For example the pronouns feature is great, but after you open and close the app it will make the pronouns you selected go away. They added a “read more” button in your bio that people have to click to see the rest of your bio which is really annoying and pointless since people could see your entire bio already until the update. In general, the app is very glitchy and doesn’t work properly. When I try to download images, it gives me a notification that says my request couldn’t be completed even if the image did download which is very annoying, and when you add a business account the profile cover glitches out and looks really bad. I could go on about this forever. PLEASE FIX YOUR APP!!!

Still great!. I love Pinterest and the app has made it so convenient for me to be able to save the things I like onto boards. Not only that but I can always find creative inspiration for my next art project or meal! It’s like having an online memory box where I can look back years and see how my tastes have changed and evolved. Plus I’ll stumble onto an old project, recipe, or general pin that I like and be able to use it again! The only thing that I would change about the app is a feature that has pulled up in the newest updates. For example, when I search “brunch ideas” there is a button on the lower center portion of the screen that says “Refine”. While I can appreciate the concept for it, it’s more of an annoyance to have it on top of where I’m scrolling to look at pins. I think it would be a better fit at the top of the screen in the same section as the search bar so that it eliminates the issue of a button covering part of my pins. It’s a small issue, however it can become quite cumbersome when I don’t want to refine anything. Even if there was a way to turn it off/close it when I don’t want it, that would be great! So far I haven’t been able to find out how to do that. Even with this, I still love the app!
