Sign in to Pinterest

We are going to learn everything necessary to be able sign in to Pinterest, including the different alternatives to enter our account, as well as the solution to some of the main problems that we may encounter when accessing it.

What do I need to log in to Pinterest

First of all, the most important thing we should keep in mind is what we will need to be able to log in to our Pinterest account.

Luckily, we have the possibility of using different alternatives to enter Pinterest, which are the following:

• Use a Google account: Currently, most users have a Google account, which can be used to directly access Pinterest without having to register.
• Use a Facebook account: In the same way, we can proceed if we have a Facebook account, that is, without the need to register on Pinterest, we can log in in a few seconds.
• Use your own Pinterest account: but if we do not want to link our Pinterest account with Google or Facebook, the best thing we can do is register to create a new account.

Of course, in order to access our account, we will also need to enter the Pinterest login page (https://www.pinterest.es/), which we are going to have to resort to regardless of the process we are going to carry out of the ones we develop below.

How to log in to Pinterest

Once we know the different alternatives for enter Pinterest, let's now learn about the processes depending on the device we are using.

Sign in to Pinterest from PC

The computer is one of the most common methods when accessing a Pinterest account, so we are going to explain how to proceed for the three login alternatives that we have at our disposal.

Enter Pinterest with my Facebook account

We will start by learning how to enter Pinterest using our Facebook account if we have one.

• We log in to Facebook.
• We enter the Pinterest access page.
• In the login window we click on the Facebook button “Continue as XXXXXX”, where the Xs indicate your name.

• You will automatically enter an account of interest that will always be associated with your Facebook account.

Enter Pinterest with my Google account

If we do not have a Facebook or Facebook account or we do not want to use them for this purpose, we can also use our Google account, for which we must follow the steps detailed below:

• Let's go to the Pinterest home page.
• Once inside, we click on the button “Continue with Google".

• In just a few seconds you will have managed to access your Pinterest account associated with Google.

Enter Pinterest with a Pinterest account

Finally, there is the alternative of directly creating an account on Pinterest, perhaps the one that guarantees greater privacy, so it is one of the most recommended for most users.

In the event that you want to access using this system, obviously you must first have registered on Pinterest.

Once this is done, the steps to follow will be the following:

• We enter Pinterest.
• A window appears in which we see two sections where we have to enter our access data, which we created when registering on the social network.

• As you can see, in the first box we have to enter our email or phone number that we have linked.
• In the second box we will enter the password that we had chosen when registering on the social network.

Sign in to Pinterest from Android

Of course, nowadays it is also common for us to have a device with us, very usually with the Android operating system.

In that case, to be able to log in to Pinterest from our smartphone or tablet, we must follow the steps detailed below:

• We download and install the official Pinterest application for Android.
• Run the app on your device.
• On the first screen, the box will appear in which we have to enter our email, that is, the one with which we have registered on Pinterest, and then we click on “Continue".
• Now we will repeat, but this time we have to write our password, and we click on “Login".

Sign in to Pinterest from iOS

Although most users use Android, there are also a large number of people who use Apple devices, in which case, the process to log in will be as detailed below:

• We download and install the official Pinterest application for iOS.
• Now we can open the application.
• Once inside, a first screen will appear where we have to enter the email address with which we have registered on Pinterest. We click on “Continue".
• Now we write our password and click on “Login".

Sign in to Pinterest from Windows Phone

Of course, for Windows Phone users we also have a specific version of Pinterest, and in this case, the process will be as follows:

• Let's start by downloading the official Pinterest app for Windows Phone.
• Once we have installed it on our device, we proceed to start it.
• This will give us access to a window in which we have to enter the email address that we had used when registering our account.
• Once this is done, we click on “Continue” and we will enter another section where we have to enter the password and click on “Login".

Problems signing in to Pinterest

As we have seen so far, logging into Pinterest is really simple.

However, there are times when we may encounter difficulties, either because we do not remember our username, because we cannot remember our password, or even because someone is using our account and has tried it.

Whatever our problem is, we are going to detail below how you should proceed:

I don't remember my username

A problem that may arise when logging into Pinterest is precisely the fact that we do not remember our username.

In this sense, in principle there should not be too much of a problem, since to log in we can use our email or also our phone number.

For that reason, if you have forgotten any of your access data, something that can happen especially if you haven't logged in for a long time, then all you have to do is try the rest.

I do not remember my password

However, the most common problem is precisely the fact that we have forgotten our password.

Whether because we have changed it recently we do not remember the new one, or even because we have not logged in for a long time and this means that little by little we forget it, the important thing is to know that we have a very easy and fast system through which we can recover access to our account.

To do this, we will follow the process detailed below:

• We enter the Pinterest page.
• Right at the bottom of the login block, we will find the link “Did you forget your password?”.

• When we click, we will see a window similar to this:

• All we have to do is write our name, username or email address that we have linked to the account.
• This will make a button appear right at the bottom in which it tells us “Send password reset ethnic email".
• We click on it and now we have to go to our email where we will receive a message with the steps to recover our password and, in this way, be able to log in again without any problem.

Someone stole my Pinterest account

It is evident that, when we talk about the quality of our Pinterest account being stolen, we mean that we no longer have access to it.

That is, we have to differentiate between the fact that someone has accessed our account because we have left it open in a public place, with the fact that someone has managed to find out our password, has changed it and, therefore, that person have access to the account and we can no longer log in.

If this circumstance occurs, it is important to keep in mind that the Pinterest team will be on our side.

Of course, in these cases it is highly recommended to have linked our phone number, since it is the most effective way to recover the account.

However, regardless of what we have done, rest assured that everything is in our favor to recover the account.

In any case, we advise you to follow the steps detailed below:

• Let's go to the main Pinterest page.
• At the bottom we have several links, and in our case we will click on “Help".
• Now a new window will open, and in our circumstance what we are going to do is click, for example, on the option “There is another person registered with your email".
• Do not worry because this is not exactly what happens to us, since basically what we are going to see now is a tutorial with how we can correct this problem, but at the same time we will also see the “button”Email”, which is the one we have to click on.

• Now we are going to stay in the first section called “Account access and closure” and we will click to open it.
• Once opened, we will click on “Problems logging in".
• We go to the bottom and click on the button “Continue".

• At this moment we will see a form like the one we show you in the image above, so we have to enter our name, surname, username and email address that we used to register, in addition to also informing about whether we have access to said email.
• Now we click on “Continue".
• The next thing that will appear is a section in which we will have to describe our problem, that is, explain the reason why we cannot log in to our account, and if we suspect that there is someone who could have stolen it from us, either because they are publishing things without our consent or because we see any type of suspicious movement.

• Once this is done, we click on “Continue” and in the shortest possible period of time they will contact us through the email that we have indicated and that was linked to our account, to offer us the most recommended solution in our case.

With this complete tutorial to log in to Pinterest We hope to have resolved any type of doubt you may have had related to accessing your account on this interesting social network.
