About the Character Counter
This free character counter instantly counts characters (with and without spaces), plus words and lines, as you type or paste. It is built for anywhere a character limit applies: tweets and social bios, SEO meta titles and descriptions, SMS messages, form fields and ad copy. Everything runs in your browser, so your text stays private.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the character counter work?
It counts in real time as you type or paste, showing the total number of characters including spaces, the count without spaces, and word and line counts so you can match any limit.
Why count characters instead of words?
Many platforms set limits in characters, not words: X posts, Instagram and other bios, meta titles (around 60 characters), meta descriptions (around 160), and SMS (160 per segment). A character count tells you exactly where you stand.
Does it count spaces?
It shows both: characters with spaces and characters without spaces. Some limits include spaces and some do not, so you can use whichever the platform requires.
Is the character counter free and private?
Yes. It is free with no sign-up and runs entirely in your browser, so your text is never uploaded or stored.
