About the Character Counter
Character limits decide whether your post, bio or snippet gets cut off. This counter shows your total characters and your no-spaces count as you type, then measures the text against five real-world limits: X/Twitter posts (280), Instagram bios (150), SMS messages (160), meta descriptions (155) and LinkedIn headlines (220).
Each limit gets its own progress bar. Stay under and the bar fills calmly; go over and it turns red with an exact "over by" count, so you know precisely how much to trim before you publish.
How to use it
- 1Type or paste your text into the input box.
- 2Check the two big counts: characters and characters without spaces.
- 3Scan the platform bars — anything red is over its limit, with the excess shown.
