How to Search Your Pinterest Saves Like a Pro (Using Notes as an Index)

Pinterest's search bar searches *Pinterest*. It searches the global database. It is terrible at searching *your* stuff. Try searching for 'that blue couch I liked last month.' Good luck.

Notes as Metadata

When you add a note, you are creating metadata. You are indexing your own library. If you write 'blue velvet couch for den' in the note, those words become searchable keys.

The Dashboard Search

Notestopin provides a dedicated search engine for your saves. It scans your notes, your tags, and the original pin descriptions. It's fast, fuzzy, and forgiving.

Stop scrolling. Start searching.
