Character Counter
Count characters instantly, including a built-in Twitter/X 280-character limit tracker.
Character counter for every platform
This online character counter is built for anywhere length matters: X/Twitter posts, meta descriptions, SMS messages, product titles or Chinese-language content. Watch the live Twitter character counter to keep every post under the 280-character limit.
Chinese character counter
The Chinese character counter row detects CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters separately from Latin letters, which matters because platforms like Weibo and WeChat often count CJK characters differently from alphabetic text.
What is the Twitter/X character limit?
Standard posts on X are limited to 280 characters for most accounts; this online character counter tracks that limit live as you type.
Does this count emoji correctly?
Emoji are counted as characters, matching how most social platforms measure post length.
