FAQ
Common questions
The tool checks drafts against the standard limit of 280 characters for regular profiles, while also showing warnings for premium post lengths. It automatically accounts for standard link compression and emoji values. This keeps your drafts aligned with the platform rules.
No, the counter automatically adjusts for web links, counting them as a fixed length of 23 characters regardless of their actual length. This reflects how the platform handles link shortening behind the scenes. This helper ensures you do not miscalculate available space.
Yes, emojis are calculated as 2 characters each, matching the standard system metrics. This prevents formatting errors where a draft looks short but gets rejected due to hidden emoji bytes. You can draft complex posts without manual counting.
No, the text counter operates entirely in your web browser. None of your drafts, links, or text inputs are stored, tracked, or sent to external servers, keeping your data private.
