Using Pinterest without signing up - here's how

The online pinboard Pinterest is a collection place for photographs, drawings, graphics and many other creative contributions. Accessing and using the site is free, but without an account you won't get past the login screen. Learn here what options you have to still use Pinterest without a user account.

How to use Pinterest without a user account

If you access the Pinterest website in your browser without logging in with a user account, you will be automatically redirected to a login page. If you don't want to create an account, there are several ways you can bypass the login page and still use Pinterest.

1. With the free browser extension "pinterest-guest", Firefox users have the option to bypass the login on Pinterest. You can search for and install the extension directly from Firefox's add-on management. However, the add-on is not available for Google Chrome or other browsers.
2. Google Chrome users can bypass the login with the add-on Tampermonkey and the user script "Pinterest without registration". Extensions for Chrome can be obtained from the Chrome Web Store.
3. Alternatively to the browser extensions, there are also websites such as "Bugmenot.com", where users share credentials for various websites. Using the search function, you can search for "Pinterest" and try one of the various accounts listed there.

However, if you want to use the website to its full extent, you cannot avoid creating a user account. Only then will you be able, for example, to upload images yourself or use the social functions of the platform.
