Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between characters with and without spaces?
Characters with spaces counts every character including spaces, tabs, and line breaks. Characters without spaces excludes all whitespace, which is useful for strict limits.
How is a word counted?
A word is any sequence of non-whitespace characters separated by spaces. Multiple consecutive spaces are treated as a single separator.
Are social media limits accurate?
The limits shown reflect common platform caps (Twitter 280, Instagram 2200, SMS 160). Some platforms count differently for emoji or links, so treat these as guidelines.
Is my text stored or sent anywhere?
No. All counting happens in your browser. Your text never leaves your device or hits a server.
