Web interface
Open pinchana.cc. Pinchana checks an existing session first. If none is valid, complete the dark Cloudflare Turnstile widget; the URL bar unlocks only after verification.
- Paste a public link. Click the URL bar or paste while focus is outside an input—the app moves clipboard text into the URL bar. HTTP and HTTPS URLs are accepted for validation; the API then decides whether a module supports the URL.
- Choose a mode. Media saves the returned video, image, carousel, slideshow audio, or tracks. Audio only keeps MP3 input or extracts the first audio stream from video in your browser.
- Process it. Use the arrow button or press Enter. A notification reports input, session, upstream, conversion, and download errors.
- Preview the result. Videos use native controls. Images display directly. Carousels provide previous/next controls and item dots. TikTok image slideshows can show separate play/pause and volume controls for their audio. Audio and track results use the audio player.
- Save. The Save button fetches authenticated same-origin media and asks the browser to save it. With Save immediately enabled (the default), this happens as soon as processing or audio preparation finishes.
