This tool counts your tweet's characters using X (Twitter)'s actual rules and shows in real time how many characters you have left against the 280-character limit. Because links count as a fixed 23 characters and Korean counts double, it gives the exact length to Twitter users and marketers who find these rules confusing.
How to use
- Write or paste your tweet exactly as it is into the input box.
- Check how much room you have against the 280-character limit with the progress bar and remaining count.
- Use the weighted character count and link count stats to see what's eating up your length.
- If you go over 280, trim the content by the amount you're over.
FAQ
- Why does Korean hit the limit faster than English?
- X weights characters like Korean, Chinese, and emoji as 2 each. So while English goes up to 280 characters, Korean effectively caps at around 140.
- Why are links counted as 23 characters?
- X automatically wraps every posted link in a t.co short URL, so it counts any single URL as a fixed 23 characters regardless of its actual length. This tool applies the same rule.
- Is my tweet content sent anywhere?
- No. The character counting all happens within your browser, and the content you enter is never sent to or stored on a server.
