What is the Instagram Character Limit?

Instagram allows up to 2,200 characters per caption. However, captions are truncated after 125 characters, meaning users have to click "more" to see the rest. For the best engagement, keep your most important information in the first two lines.

Hashtag Guidelines

You can include up to 30 hashtags in a single caption or comment. Using more than 30 will prevent your caption from being posted at all. Many experts recommend using 3-11 relevant hashtags for the best reach without looking like spam.

Why Use a Counter?

  • Avoid Truncation: Ensure your call-to-action is visible without clicking "more".
  • Stay Within Limits: Don't get blocked from posting by exceeding the 2200 char or 30 hashtag limit.
  • Draft Easily: Paste your drafts and refine them before opening the Instagram app.
