Kayali Lowe (ID: 00000040b9e572e3) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 05/31/2021 Okay so uhm if I were to search something up then I wanted to save it to a board, it most likely wouldn't let me.

Zsuzsanna Vári (ID: 000000c34fde305c) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/23/2020 PinSnapper is like a screenshot tool for saving images directly to Pinterest. However, it worked a bit buggy, I mean after snapping the image, no preview of it could be checked before sending the image to a board. 🤷‍♀️ And I did not find editing image title or description either.
