Only ~125 characters show before the “… more” fold — put your hook there.

Why 125 characters matter more than 2,200

You can write 2,200 characters, but only the first ~125 show in the feed before “… more”. That's your headline. This counter shows a live warning the moment your hook crosses the fold, so the part that sells the tap never gets buried.

Bios are a 150-character pitch

Who you are, what you post, why to follow — in 150 characters including line breaks. Switch to Bio mode and the counter enforces the real limit while you draft.

Count hashtags before Instagram silently drops them

Post with more than 30 tags and Instagram can drop your caption entirely. The counter tracks your hashtag count live — and our hashtag counter & cleaner tool dedupes and trims the set for you.
