Instagram captions can be up to 2,200 characters long. However, only the first 125 characters show before the 'more' button.
Does the counter include spaces?
Yes, spaces count toward your character limit on all platforms. URLs on Twitter are always counted as 23 characters regardless of length.
What happens if I exceed the limit?
The counter will show red when you exceed a platform's limit. You'll need to trim your text before posting.
