Frequently asked questions
How are words counted?
A word is any run of non-space characters. Hyphenated compounds count as one word. This matches common editor behaviour, not every publisher’s house style.
Are spaces counted in characters?
Yes, in the main character count. A second figure excludes all whitespace, which is useful for some social and SMS limits.
Is the text uploaded?
No. Counting happens locally. Your draft never leaves this device.
