FAQ
What is being counted?
The main count uses Unicode code points. Visible characters use grapheme clusters. Words are separated by whitespace; sentence counts are simple punctuation-based estimates.
Does this validate platform limits?
No. X weighted counts, GSM-7 SMS encoding and application-specific counting rules are not implemented. Search snippets also have no fixed 160-character limit. Check the actual destination field.
Is my text sent anywhere?
Calculations run in this browser. Reading speed is an adjustable example, not a measured reading average.
