How it works

From blank field to useful output.

  1. 01Choose a social network
  2. 02Write or paste your post
  3. 03Check the live limit

Better output

  • Treat the limit as a ceiling, not a target.
  • Put the most important idea before text is truncated in the feed.
  • Preview the final post inside the network when formatting is critical.

When the post is ready

Questions,answered.

Are spaces and emoji counted?

Yes. The total includes spaces and emoji, matching the practical length of the text you paste.

Why can a platform count some emoji differently?

Some networks count combined emoji and special characters with provider-specific rules. This tool counts visible Unicode characters as a helpful pre-publish check.
