No. All text processing happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your content is never transmitted to any server, stored in any database, or logged in any analytics system. When you close the browser tab, the text is gone — nothing persists on any external system.
Single emojis count as one character, matching how most social media platforms count them. Composite emojis (like family or flag emojis) are counted according to their grapheme cluster representation, which aligns with how platforms like X and Instagram process them. CJK characters, diacritical marks, and right-to-left scripts are all handled accurately.
Yes. The interface is fully responsive and tested on iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and all major mobile browsers. The layout adapts to your screen size with touch-friendly input areas and readable metric displays, functioning identically to the desktop version.
Characters with spaces counts every character including spaces between words. Characters without spaces counts only letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols, excluding all whitespace. The distinction matters for platforms and systems that count characters differently — for example, some SMS gateways exclude spaces while most social platforms include them.
There is no hard limit. The tool handles documents of 50,000+ characters while maintaining real-time counting performance. For extremely large documents, performance depends on your device's browser and available memory, but typical use cases (social posts, articles, meta descriptions) are well within comfortable limits.
Yes. Once the page has loaded in your browser, all functionality works without an internet connection. The entire tool runs on client-side JavaScript, so no server communication is needed after the initial page load.
Reading time is calculated at approximately 200-250 words per minute, which is the average adult reading speed for online content. Actual reading speed varies by individual and content complexity, so treat the estimate as a useful approximation rather than a precise measurement.
Word processors provide basic character counts but lack platform-specific limit indicators, real-time visual feedback, and accurate emoji counting by grapheme cluster. This tool shows at a glance whether your text fits within X, LinkedIn, Google Ads, or SEO meta field limits — something no word processor does natively. It also processes text entirely client-side with no data transmission, which matters for sensitive content.
