# How to restore a Pinterest board deleted less than 7 days ago

By HeyMark · Updated November 2, 2026

Did you accidentally delete a board where you kept ideas for your posts or products? If it has been less than seven days, look for Pinterest’s restore option. I’ll walk you through the desktop steps and what to check if the board is missing.

## Check the time limit and device

Pinterest lets you restore a board for **seven days after deleting it**. If you have a **business account, use a computer**. For a personal account, you can use desktop or Android. If you are on an iPhone or iPad, continue on a computer to follow these steps.

Recovery applies to the deleted board. You cannot use this process to recover a Pin you deleted individually. [Read Pinterest’s recovery limits](https://help.pinterest.com/en/article/missing-pins-or-boards).

## Restore the board on desktop

1. Log in to the Pinterest account that held the board and click your **profile picture** at the top right.
2. Open **Saved** and scroll down. On a personal account, look for **Recently deleted boards**; on a business account, look for **Recently deleted**.
3. Click **Restore boards**.
4. Select the board you want to recover and click **Restore**.

Then return to Saved and open the board to check that it appears and review its contents. You do not need to delete another board or switch your business account to a personal account to follow this process. [Pinterest explains the restoration steps for each account type](https://help.pinterest.com/en/article/archive-or-delete-a-board).

## If you use a personal account on Android

Open Pinterest with the correct account and follow these steps:

1. Tap your **profile picture** at the bottom right, then open **Boards**.
2. Scroll to **Recently deleted** and tap **Restore**.
3. Tap the board you want to recover, then tap **Restore** again.

Check that the board returns to your list. For a business account, use the desktop steps above.

## If the board or recovery section is missing

First check that you are still within seven days and using the same account. If you have several accounts or signed in with Google or Apple, check which account you opened before repeating the steps.

The board may be **archived** rather than deleted: look for archived boards at the bottom of your profile. On a business account, open **Saved** if you were looking at **Created**. If Pinterest removed the board, check the email explaining its removal and follow Pinterest’s notice.

If you deleted the board and the recovery window has passed, this process cannot restore it. If you are still within the window but cannot find it in the right section, use the contact link at the bottom of Pinterest’s help page and describe the account, device and when you deleted it. Contacting support does not guarantee an additional recovery option.

If the board exists but someone else cannot open it, see [How to share a private Pinterest board](https://heymark.ai/en/solutions/share-private-pinterest-board/).
