Character Counter
Count characters with and without spaces, break them down by letters, digits, spaces, and symbols, see the size in bytes, and check your text against a limit such as an X post, SMS, page title, or meta description.
0 characters · 1,000,000 remaining

Questions about the Character Counter
Paste your text and read the Characters figure, which includes spaces. A separate figure shows the count without spaces.
Choose a Character limit, such as X post, SMS, Instagram caption, LinkedIn post, YouTube title, page title, or meta description. A bar shows how much of the limit you have used.
It also shows the size in UTF-8 bytes, which differs from the character count when you use emoji or non-English letters.
