Frequently asked questions
How many hashtags can I use on Instagram now?
Five per post or Reel. Instagram cut the limit from 30 to 5 in December 2025, and hashtags in the first comment count toward the same five.
How long can an Instagram caption be?
2,200 characters, but only about the first 125 show before "...more", so the hook has to land in that first line.
Why does X count my post differently?
X counts every link as 23 characters and most emoji as 2. This counter shows the plain count, so leave a little headroom on X.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. The counting happens in your browser.
