What is a character counter?

A character counter tallies how many characters your text contains, with and without spaces, plus words, sentences, lines and paragraphs. It is ideal for staying inside tweet, meta-description or SMS limits. Snabbit counts everything live in your browser as you type, so the text you paste is never uploaded to a server.

How to use the Character Counter

1 Type or paste your text into the input box.
2 The character report updates instantly as you type.
3 Read the totals for characters, words, sentences and lines.
4 Copy the report if you need to keep the numbers.

What you can use it for

Keeping a tweet, bio or meta description under its character limit.
Checking SMS message length before sending.
Measuring essay or answer length against a brief.
Trimming ad copy to fit a fixed field.

Frequently asked questions

Does the counter include spaces?

It shows both totals: the full character count including spaces, and a separate count with all whitespace removed, so you can match whichever limit a platform uses.

Why does my count differ from a word processor?

Counters can differ on how they treat line breaks, emoji and trailing spaces. Snabbit counts every Unicode character, so an emoji counts as one character even though it may use several bytes.

Is there a maximum length?

No. Counting runs locally in your browser, so you can paste long documents and still get an instant count without anything being uploaded.
