Frequently asked questions
Do emoji count as one character?
Not always. On X many emoji count as two characters, and in SMS an emoji switches the message to Unicode, which shortens the limit per message.
Why does the count differ between platforms?
Each platform counts in its own way, such as how links or special characters are handled. The tool shows each count with that platform's limit.
What about SMS messages?
SMS length depends on the characters used, and special characters can shorten the limit per message. Long texts may be split into several messages.
