How to use this character counter
Type or paste text. Character count updates on every keystroke, including spaces. A second total ignores whitespace.
Use it for Twitter-style limits, meta titles, and SMS. Word and sentence totals are shown alongside so you do not need another tab.
Example
Toolixo is 7 characters. With a trailing space it is 8. Without spaces, still 7.
