You may have noticed some updates to Pinterest in recent weeks—particularly if you're under 16. Learn more about the settings and options designed to protect teens' personal space and safety on Pinterest.

Your home feed shows Pins from people, topics and boards you follow, plus Pins inspired by your own boards and by your recent activity.

If you find an account you like, you can follow the account to see more of their Pins. The more you engage with or create content on Pinterest, the more likely it is that people will find and follow you.

Your follower count is the number of people who follow you or your boards. If a person follows more than one board you’ve created, it will count as one follow. Your following count is the number of people or boards that you follow. Both of these numbers may change because the number of people on Pinterest is always changing.

If you want to remove someone from your followers, you can block them.
