Social media character counter
Paste a post to see how long it is on each network, counted the way that network counts.
Counting happens in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere.
| Network | Length | Status |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube | 0 / 5,000 | 5,000 left |
| 0 / 63,206 | 63,206 left | |
| 0 / 2,200 | 2,200 left | |
| Threads | 0 / 500 | 500 left |
| TikTok | 0 / 2,200 | 2,200 left |
| X | 0 / 280 | 280 left |
| 0 / 3,000 | 3,000 left | |
| Bluesky | 0 / 300 | 300 left |
X counts most non-Latin characters and emoji as two, and every link as 23. Bluesky counts what you see as one character, so an emoji is one.
