Character Count Guide

Character count is the total number of letters, numbers, symbols, and spaces in a text. It is often used where length is tightly restricted.

When character count matters

Social bios, search titles, form fields, and app store descriptions often require a strict number of characters instead of words.

How to keep it short

Remove extra wording, replace long phrases with shorter ones, and use direct language. A good character counter makes this much easier.
