About the Character Counter
Count characters the way platforms do — an emoji or an accented letter is one character, not three — and see at a glance whether your text fits a post, a search snippet or a single SMS.
How to use it
- 1Paste or type your text.
- 2Watch the limit bars: they turn amber near the limit and red past it.
- 3Trim until the one you are writing for is green.
Questions
Why does my count differ from another counter?
Many emoji and some letters are built from several code points. This counts what you see as one character, which is what most platforms count; the raw code-unit count is shown alongside for comparison.
Are the platform limits exact?
The SMS figures are exact: 160 characters in the basic GSM alphabet, 70 once any other character appears. X counts links as 23 and some scripts as two, and search engines cut titles by pixel width, so treat those bars as a close guide.
Is my text uploaded or stored?
No. The tool runs in this browser tab. What you paste is never sent to KuponGuru, and it is gone when you close the tab.
