Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Twitter character limit?
Twitter (now X) has a 280 character limit for standard accounts. Twitter Blue subscribers can post up to 25,000 characters.
Why do SMS messages have a 160 character limit?
The SMS standard uses 140 bytes per message. With 7-bit encoding (GSM alphabet), this equals 160 characters.
Does this tool count words accurately?
Yes. Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace, so hyphenated words and contractions count as single words.
