Character Counter is a free online tool for checking the number of characters in your text instantly. Type or paste your text into the box above to see the total number of characters, characters without spaces, letters, digits, and lines as you type.
Whether you’re checking the length of a social media post, form response, title, description, message, or other text, you can see the result immediately without uploading your content.

How to use Character Counter

1. Type or paste your text into the input box above.
2. Check the character totals as they update automatically while you type.
3. Compare the total character count with the count that excludes spaces.
4. Review the separate totals for letters, digits, and lines.
5. Copy, download, print, or clear your text when you’re finished.

Character count with and without spaces

The Characters result counts the characters in your text including spaces. The No spaces result gives you the character count after spaces are excluded. This makes it easy to check text when a website, form, or writing requirement uses a specific character limit.

What does the Character Counter count?

Text can contain several types of characters. TextNivo separates useful measurements so you can quickly understand the length and structure of what you’ve entered.

Characters: the overall character count, including spaces.
No spaces: characters counted after spaces are excluded.
Letters: alphabetic letters in the text.
Digits: numerical digits such as 0–9.
Lines: the number of lines in the entered text.

When is a Character Counter useful?

An online character counter is useful whenever text needs to fit within a particular length. You can use it for social media text, profile descriptions, online forms, titles, messages, applications, product descriptions, SEO text, and general writing.

If you need broader writing statistics such as the number of words, use the Word Counter. For line-specific text analysis, use the Line Counter.
