Questions
What counts as a character?
Every Unicode code point: letters, digits, punctuation, spaces, tabs, and line breaks all count toward the total.
Does an emoji count as one character?
Yes. We count Unicode code points, so each emoji is one character regardless of how many bytes it uses.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. All counting happens in your browser. Nothing you enter is transmitted or stored.
