Most emoji count as 2. Spaces and line breaks count too.
Questions.
What is the TikTok character limit?
A video caption posted through an app takes 2,200 UTF-16 units. Most emoji count 2. Spaces, hashtags, mentions and line breaks count too.
Why 2,200 when TikTok allows longer captions?
This checks video captions sent through TikTok’s Content Posting API, the route schedulers use. It does not check the phone app’s caption allowance or photo-post descriptions.
What happens when I open a draft?
Your exact caption becomes an editable TikTok video draft. Add your video and connect TikTok in Flaghand before posting.
Is my text uploaded?
No. It is counted in your browser. Your text stays in this tab until you choose to open a Flaghand draft.
