How To: Get Pinterest's New Home Screen Shortcuts on Your Android Phone

Pinterest, a worldwide catalog of ideas shared by over 175 million users every month, is dominated by Android users, who are now the app's fastest growing group. Pinterest has since taken notice, and has started to incorporate handy home screen shortcuts for users with Android 7.1 or higher.So how do you get these new shortcuts? First, make sure to enable "Unknown sources" so that you can sideload the new beta version of Pinterest, which hasn't made its way to the Play Store for all users yet. To do this, head to your device's settings menu and look for "Security" or "Lock screen and security." You should see "Unknown sources," and an option to switch it on. After switching it on, press "OK" on the pop-up message.Now, you'll need to download the latest Pinterest 6.13.0 on APK Mirror and launch it to install. There are currently four variants of the latest Pinterest update. Choose the one that correlates to your Android device's processor type and screen density, then once you've downloaded the APK, tap the notification to launch it, and press "Install" when prompted.Download Pinterest v6.13.0 for Android (.apk) To use the new features, just long-press the app icon until you see the four Pinterest shortcuts. If you want to take things a step further, you can even long-press the shortcuts themselves, then drag them onto your home screen for an easier way to access that particular feature. The first shortcut you should see is "Lens." Lens is, according to Pinterest's blog, where you can discover ideas "inspired by anything you point your camera at." In other words, it's like Google Goggles, but with Pinterest baked in!

In search, you have the option to quickly type in and search any idea or recipe within Pinterest.
