Just like many other companies that have apps for iOS available in App Store, Pinterest has decided that with the release of iOS 9 it would be a good time to launch a new version of their application.

According to developers, Pinterest users should be able to find Pins much easier with the latest version of their application since they have added many new ways to find them.

“You spend a lot of time searching for Pins and saving the best ones to your boards. But you shouldn’t have to spend a lot of time getting back to those Pins when you need them.

“Starting this week, Pinners with the latest update on iPhone and iPad will have a few new ways to get to their Pins, boards and search results,” explain developers in a blog post.

That statement makes perfect sense since Pinterest got support for 3D Touch technology, which means users will now be able to find Pins quicker and easier.

For example, you will be able to search for Pins directly from your iPhone or iPad's search screen. Also, the more Pins you view on Pinterest, the more you can search for them from your phone.

New gestures offer users quicker ways to find Pins

Another tweak included in the latest update is a link straight to Pinterest. So, if you tap a Pinterest link anywhere on the iPhone, it will take you directly to the application, so no more redirects of pop-ups.

Thanks to the 3D Touch technology, you will now be able to press and hold the Pinterest app icon from your iPhone's homescreen to search for Pins much faster, create a board or see what's popular on Pinterest at any given moment.

As soon as you open the application, you will be able to press any Pin to get a larger preview and quickly Pin, like or send. Another gesture will allow you to get a preview of the board it came from by pressing on the board name.

You can now download Pinterest for iOS for free via App Store. The application should be fully compatible with all devices running iOS 7.0 or later.
