Questions about Text Tools
Do spaces count as characters?
Usually yes. Most limits, including social media posts and SMS messages, count spaces. Character Counter shows the count both with and without spaces.
How long does it take to read 1,000 words?
About 4 to 5 minutes for silent reading at an average adult speed of 238 words a minute, and about 8 minutes spoken aloud at a comfortable 130 words a minute. Word Counter shows both times for your text.
Is my text saved or sent anywhere?
No. The text tools work in your browser. Nothing you type is stored or sent.
