"PinCheck provides a simple way for you to quickly spot broken links for your pins" -Sandy Stochwiak, AppAdvice Whether you're a social media manager or just an avid Pinterest user, you know that broken links on Pinterest are a problem. Maybe you pinned a recipe 4 years ago, but when you go to use it the link is broken...PinCheck solves this... We scan your Pinterest boards for broken links and lets you either delete OR FIX THEM! PinFix works by finding websites similar to your pin and letting you re-pin with the good link. NOTE: At this time, Pinterest only permits us to check public boards. If you'd like to have your private boards checked, too tweet to them (@pinterest) and ask them to grant us special access! NOTE: Because PinCheck is literally testing the websites of your pins one by one, a REALLY GOOD network connection is necessary (we're talking 5 bars LTE type stuff here) for best performance. This app is dedicated to my Mom who's broken pins and search for a solution inspired me to develop PinCheck. Follow us @PinCheckApp!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PinCheck at 3.9 against Decodely's 2.3. PinCheck also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 31%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 10 months). Decodely's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

PinCheck holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PinCheck has 40 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Decodely ships an update every 10 months, PinCheck every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
