# Social Media Caption Character Counter

> Counts characters, words, lines, hashtags, mentions and emoji in a caption, and shows where the text is truncated on each platform.

**Truncation is the number that matters.** Every platform has a hard limit and a much shorter visible limit. Instagram truncates around 125 characters, LinkedIn around 210, TikTok around 100, Facebook around 480. The hook has to land inside the visible window.

**Emoji are not one character.** Many emoji are multi-codepoint sequences and count as several characters against a platform limit.
