How to Count Instagram Characters

Check Instagram character limits

Instagram Character Limits


  • Caption: Up to 2,200 characters
  • Bio: Up to 150 characters
  • Hashtags: Up to 30 per post
  • Comments: Up to 2,200 characters
  • Username: Up to 30 characters

How to Use


1. Enter your text in the Character Counter tool.

2. See real-time counts for characters, words, lines, hashtags, and mentions.

3. Monitor progress bars showing how close you are to each limit.


Tips


  • Captions exceeding 2,200 characters cannot be posted.
  • More than 30 hashtags may disable commenting.
  • Keep your bio concise — 150 characters is quite short.
