How it works

  1. 1

    Paste or type your text

    Drop in a caption, bio, post, or description. The counter updates as you type — nothing is sent anywhere.

  2. 2

    Pick the field you’re writing for

    Switch between caption, bio, title, and other limits so the progress bar matches what you’re actually posting.

  3. 3

    Trim until you’re in the green

    Watch characters, words, lines, and hashtags. Stay under the limit and front-load the part that shows before the fold.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Facebook post character limit?

The Facebook post limit is 63,206 characters. Technically huge; only the first ~480 characters show before “See more”.

Does Facebook count emojis as one character?

This counter measures characters by Unicode code point, so most emojis count as one — the same way Facebook typically counts them. A few combined emojis (like some flags or skin-tone variants) can count as more, so leave a little buffer near the limit.

How long can my Facebook bio be?

Your Facebook bio can be up to 101 characters. Switch the field selector to “Bio / Intro” to count against that limit.

Is this Facebook character counter free?

Yes. It’s completely free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — your text never leaves your device.
