Limits and privacy

Limits can change

LinkedIn occasionally adjusts its character limits. The values here reflect the current state; future changes aren't guaranteed to be caught immediately.

Characters, not bytes

We count Unicode characters (emoji count as one each too), not bytes – matching how LinkedIn counts.

Runs entirely in your browser

The counter processes your text locally on your device only. Nothing is sent to or stored on a server – that's why there's no privacy consent to click here.

Who processes the data, on what legal basis and for how long is in our privacy policy under "Free tools". Go to the privacy policy →

LinkedIn Text Formatter

Format LinkedIn posts with bold, italic and special characters, free.

Frequently asked questions about the character counter

Is the LinkedIn character counter free?

Yes. Use it without signing up, as many times as you like.

Is my text stored or transmitted anywhere?

No. Counting happens entirely in your browser – your text never leaves your device.

Does an emoji count as multiple characters?

No, each emoji counts as one character – just like LinkedIn's own counter.

Which LinkedIn fields does the tool cover?

Post, connection request, message, InMail, headline, About section and comment – with their current limits.

How do I know where LinkedIn cuts off my post in the feed?

The tool shows a hint once your text passes the length where LinkedIn inserts "…see more" in the feed.
