Questionable value - Use at your own risk
There is a lot of work still to do for this app. And the long term value is questionable as it’s a risk for anyone using a scheduler app not part of the Pinterest partner program. The app is simply not ready for prime time and not worth the price at present (I opted for the lifetime so maybe I’ll eventually get value out of it).
COLOR PALLETES
The default color schemes are horrid. The only color pallet options are pastels. The pastel colors do not go well with most images. The color palette needs to be intuitive and dynamic based on the images selected/used so the colors are complementary.
TEMPLATE LIBRARY
The current templates that are in the library are very amateur looking and simple. They do not look professional or visually appealing. Take a look at any Canva pin templates and you will see the difference. It feels as if someone threw these together with an AI generated designer.
TEMPLATE BUILDER
The template builder is not intuitive and lacks prompts for the buttons and editing tools to explain what they do and how they work.
SELF-SERVING USAGE ADVICE
The guidance given by the app owner for new accounts to post 5-10 pins per day is reckless and irresponsible and resulted in my account getting permanently suspended (despite an appeal that was upheld). I scheduled no more than 5 pins and was suspended after 5 days.

May 9, 2024Hi there,
I'm sorry that you have not had a good experience with the software. I am working on it every day to improve all aspects of it.
Pin Generator is a Pinterest approved app. The app had to go through 3 rounds of approval before I was given access to their standard API.
COLORS
Have you clicked the drop down next to the color palette? I have about 25 different sets of 5 colors each, many of which are not pastel. If none of those are to your liking then you can set your own colors too.
TEMPLATE LIBRARY
I understand, not all the templates suit everyone's requirements. There is also a template builder feature where you can create your own dynamic templates to suit your style and requirements.
Of course, when generating pins based on various criteria there will be times where things are not to your liking, but everything is editable, so you just need to tweak things to your liking.
With regard to your pins frequency. By no means is 5 to 10 pins per day an issue. We have many accounts that schedule up to 50 pins per day. We do always recommend that you slowly increase your pinning schedule up to your desired number.
Grounds for suspension can include a number of reasons and it is always best to check the Pinterest community guidelines to ensure that what you are posting is not breaking any of their rules.
Here are the rules for reference:

I'm always here to assist if you have any other questions.
It is my sincerest hope that you find the tool useful and any suggestions that you can make to that end are appreciated.
Kind regards,
Ollie
