Instagram captions have a maximum of 2,200 characters. However, only the first 125 characters are shown in the feed before a "more" link - so put the most important content first.
Instagram bios are limited to 150 characters. Make every character count - include your key message and a call to action pointing people to your link in bio.
You can use up to 30 hashtags per post and up to 10 per Story. Using more than 30 will prevent the post from publishing. This counter detects hashtags (words starting with #) automatically.
Yes. Most emojis count as 2 characters in Instagram's internal encoding. This counter uses JavaScript's string length, which may report 1–2 per emoji depending on the emoji - the actual Instagram count can vary slightly for complex emoji sequences.
Yes, each line break counts as one character toward Instagram's limit.
