Frequently asked questions
Is the character counter free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermark, and no limit on how often you use it.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Every conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. Your file is never sent to a server or stored anywhere but your device.
Does this count spaces?
It shows both figures side by side -- total characters including spaces, and characters with spaces excluded -- since different limits (tweet length vs. a database field) care about different ones.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes -- it works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet, or desktop, with no app to install.
